🎙️ @BillSimmons: "In their last 32 games, 21-11. They're first overall in net rating, +9.8 in the last 32 games. First in offensive rating, 121.4, which would be nearing the all-time high. They have 21 wins; 15 of 21 by double digits, including their last four in a row, and they're 14-3 in their last 17 games."
🎙️ @ZachLowe_NBA: "The Ball, Miller, Knueppel, Bridges, Diabate lineup is +179 in 281 minutes. That is preposterous. That is the #1 +/- for any lineup in the NBA. #2 is the Pistons starting lineup at +131. So 48 points 'worse' than the Hornets, and they've played almost twice as many minutes. +179 in 281 minutes is insane."

I keep going back to this text from November when Dad brought up the 100th anniversary of the 1926 Rose Bowl and how big of a deal that is/should be. Now we’re 3 days away from playing in it. A win would mark the program’s 1000th win all time! Remember the Rose Bowl #RollTide
Dad’s text to the group this am:
We’re approaching the 100th anni of the (Jan 1, 1926) Rose Bowl. There should be a lot of recognition/promotion of this event- perhaps the most significant victory in Bama football history- Here’s to Wu Winslett, Pooley Hubert, Johnny Mack Brown,
A recurring theme all year with @AlabamaFTBL was the way Kane Wommack’s defense improved/responded from the FSU loss. Same story tonight. Never panicked after going down 17-0, made adjustments, sacked John Mateer 5 times, took a pick back for a TD and forced 4 punts in 2nd half.
