Undefeated on the road so far in conference.

3-0 on the Road vs Top 15 SEC teams

Impressive start in Conf play.

Hopefully this year is a Best of the last two seasons with a Great Regular Season and a Great NCAAT.

This team seems to play better and tougher on the road. We have beat the three top 15 teams on the road but struggled against the bottom of the conference and lost to Ole Miss at home. It's strange.

 

[Coach D]

Roll Tide.

 

[BamaHoopsBoi]

Won't complain about this one at all! They played their butts off last night. RTR

Hubbard is an animal

 

[Coach D]

Sears help to keep state in the game. Thinking Stevenson starting will be coming to an end with Reid and Mo playing much much better than him. Great tough tough win. This team may not look pretty at times but they can win in a lot of different styles.

So what. We beat a top 15 team in their house. A very good top 15 team.

Got the best version of them too. That’s the most complete game MSU has played in a month.

How big was the minutes Derrion put in last night? Glad to see him back even if he seemed to be on a pitch count.

TideFans game wrapup:

MBB: #4 Crimson Tide gets big win – and big production from Chris Youngblood – in Starkvillle against #14 Mississippi State

In a closely contested Southeastern Conference matchup on Wednesday, January 29, 2025, the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide secured an 88-84 victory over the No. 14 Mississippi State Bulldogs at Humphrey…

Good for him. We still won. Pete Maravich scored 69 against us once and we still won the game.

And that was with no three point line...

 

[TIDE-HSV]

Depth is nice!

 

[Crimson1967]

Or a shot clock. Amazing the points he put up in just three seasons since freshmen weren’t eligible for varsity when he played.

GREAT WIN!

Thoughts: Sears is, dare I say, kinda like Milroe in football. He makes amazing, inexplicable plays that amaze us, but he gets us into trouble too many times that turn into TOs.

Glad to see Youngblood getting major minutes. He seems to be the answer to our 3 point shooting woes.

And as others have said I'd like to see more Mo and Reid and maybe less Stevenson. JS's defensive contributions don't merit his playing time because of his offensive liabilities when Mo and Reid are just as good on both ends of the floor.

And I think Nelson deserves some love for his willingness to be our Herb Jones on this team. He really has raised the level of his defense and his offense in the paint has been huge in recent games.

To be fair, Jarin only played 11 minutes last game. His minutes have been decreasing. Reid was also on a minutes restriction, coming off of an injury. You will definitely start seeing more Reid the healthier he becomes.

Very true and yet JS is likely to have a game like he did against NC last year at some point this year.

I'm amazed at how much he struggles with his shooting. He doesn't have a bad stroke but he misses badly most of the time.
