It’d be my therapy sessions working through my anxiety of watching him play. The turnover and near goaltend at the end nearly put me on medication.

That was...special.

Goal tending a shot after the game clock has expired is something that has literally never crossed my mind before, and I’ve played and/or watched basketball for pretty much 30 years.

Turning the ball over in that situation… not smart, but it’s a human error mistake. You can make a valid reason for why he passed the ball in that situation, etc. it just ended up as a terrible turnover.

But the near goal tend after the game was over is completely inexplicable. There. Is. Literally. Notning. You. Can. Gaines. Or. Change. About. The. About. The. Outcome. There. The clock is at zero. You can’t get a rebound. You can literally only hurt your team and either lose the game or send it to overtime (OT in this situation bc of the score).

Maybe EG can find a way to both foul the shooter and goal tend the shot next time.

The complete lack of basketball IQ and court awareness it takes to do that not once, but TWICE, in back to back games defies all human logic.

Never seen or heard anything like it. It’s so dumb that I literally thought I’d never see it happen, or almost happen; in a game. Two games in a row. Astounding.

Get me some Xanax. “Making gainez” segment over for this week. We need EG dialed in to pick up two tough Ws this week.

I bought a ticket on a whim today. Is the BBQ place the best place to grab a bite and a beer before the game?

C'mon, Blazes! Y'all got this tonight!

Tip-off in a little over an hour!

it's a pickem in Vegas

Traffic in this town is a nightmare.

I know we like to complain about parking and such for bball games, but Bartow Arena probably has the best parking situation of any college bball arena I've ever attended.
Last week, I went to a chorus performance at an auditorium at Iowa State (which shares the parking lot with the bball arena).
Granted, there were close to 3,000 people there, but getting out of that parking lot was a nightmare

Birmingham traffic seems until you go to nearly any other city in the world.

Supposedly this place seats 11.5k but it feels way more compact than Bartow. I'd rather us have a set up like this.

Patterned UAB start. No interior D and sloppy turnovers.

poor d start

Man, not great defense to start. 9-2 Middle less than 3 mins in.

looks like it's going to be a poor shooting night

Javian has really regressed after the opening game.

I might be leaving at halftime. This team needs a lot of work.
