[scubapohl1]

Turn out the lights!

 

[kurimski]

Looks like this game is pretty much over.

 

[CyForPresident]

Just can't get a stop. They have to be shooting 80%.

 

[PolkCityClone]

bama has 10 of 15 three pointers.

 

[kurimski]

Actually only 57%

I hear a fat lady singing.... We just got really tired in the second half, no one will even post up anymore.

When we get cold, we get cold!

57 %, actually with 66 % behind the arc.

 

[Cardinal2001]

well, they did exactly what they needed to do in this game. Alabama is having a career night offensively. We just can't get a break.

Hard to win a game when they are playing that well.

Alabama looks unstoppable in this game. Hard to believe they lost 3 games.

Been at a Christmas party all night--what's the scoop on the game so far?

 

[PolkCityClone]

hard to win when they may 11 of 16 threes and shoot 58% .

 

[isuno1fan]

Yep...they are unstoppable offensively. The Zone stopped us cold as well.

 

[scubapohl1]

At least part (of course not all) of that 3-point percentage has to be blamed on poor defense.

 

[CyForPresident]

We will be 7-5 after this game with 3 cupcakes left before big 12 play. We should be 10-5 going into Baylor and if I remember correctly we were 9-5 going into Big 12 play last year, but this is a much harder schedule.

What are they from 3? It's hard to beat any team that shoots the 3 (65%) as well as they have. Good effort from the Clones.

 

[Cardinal2001]

I disagree with that. I think we played pretty good defense, but it's hard to guard the 3point line and a monster in the paint like Hendrix. Only so much they can do. Cut 20% off the shooting percentage, and we are right back in this game. It sounds like we are getting our normal share of rebounds, and shooting. They are just too good on offense to make any difference.
