When the year rolled around to the beginning of conference play, I though they were four games that we had a decent shot of winning on the road.  They were Auburn, Alabama, Kentucky and Vanderbilt.  We did beat Auburn in what was our best performance of the year imho.  After having lost at home to both Alabama and Kentucky, one would have to logically downgrade our chances of beating either of them on the road.  However, both games have some points to ponder.

We were leading Bama at the start of the 4th quarter until they were awarded 27 foul shots (of which they made twenty) in the fourth quarter.  Four of them came on a bogus call and a resulting technical while we were still ahead with (as I recall) about five minutes to go. 

Now Bama with be out to prove that they didnt outright steal the game from us with the help of the refs.  We will be out to prove they did.  Devin Cosper is back and perhaps in full fashion after her last half against Kentuck.  That also might factor into the return match with them.

But for this one, I think we have about 40-60 chance to win this game.  If we dont get highly motivated for this one I dont know what we could do get there.  If we were to pull off this as a win, then we might have a chance against Kentucky, although Kentucky has, I believe, turned a corner on their season and is playing better than they were earlier in the year.

game time is at one.  It will be televised on the SEC channel and should also be available on the internet.

Solid win.

Bama coach seemed a little cold at the end of the game. Some bad blood there?  Or just mad her team got outplayed the entire game?

pigture perfect

I listened to the last half of the game. Sounds like we really played smart and steady. Good win for them.
