Sanon a non factor today.
Alabama (MSG), Sat., Nov. 8, 12 Noon, FS-1/ 1050 AM
- Thread starter Knight
- Start date
Shot 70% from the line. Shooting 90% is only 8 more points. Besides Dillon's ft shooting, that wasn't the problem.

Defense like this and Rebound like this, we are NOT top 25 team at all.
We played well. Not great but well. We had some good runs. Free throws and rebounding hurt us. We got out played.#10
We barely looked like a top 25 team man.

Mid majors won't have guards with Philon and Holloway's speed. Lets see how this team bounces back in Vegas.
We're a top 10 team. Often times things occur early in the season that can't be extrapolated to how things will play out the remainder of the season.#10

Same. An early loss is also good to take any egos down a peg
Wrightsell, Holloway and Philon had their way with our guards. Every time down the floor was a blowby layup or a dish for an easy bucket. Once Oats found that formula there was no chance we could win this game. Even when we were coming back it was just an automatic bucket on the other end. Last few minutes were killer; should have attacked the rim and had all their guys foul out.
I truly hope their guards are just that good and it isn't that our guards are that bad defensively. Zuby and B-Hop great first halves, but non-existent in the second half. Mitchell and Sanon completely lost today.
So disappointing.

That game extremely frustrated me but I think I’m seeing some overreactions already. We will be fine.
There's probably no team that has such speed at guards
Alabama was 15 th, they cleaned our clock . Think we drop to12 th at least ..

There are no true midmajors in the country that can compete with us
Maybe .

I don't think there's any way RP could have watched his tape and thought he was legitimately going to run the point for us. Said what he had to say to get the kid to sign, which I am all for to be honest.
The biggest problem is that I didn't see enough of the same tape and bought the lie for a while.

Thought we were going to get that game when we went on that little run, but then nothing after.
Oh well.
Now some tune up games to work on.
I can't get excited until Vegas, and we gotta beat ole miss and uk.
Don't want a losing record vs. the sec.

I have absolute faith in Pitino also Matt. I have no doubt that we will finish Top 3 in the Big East and make the tournament. We need to win a couple of games against these ranked teams though. Not only for seeding purposes but also to improve the power ranking of the Big East.
Of course you did - We are St. John’s!
I picked us to go 26-5 with one of those
losses being this one. Not overly concerned but didn’t like that last 4 minutes collapse at home for sure.
