All,

Alabama coach Nate Outs talks to reporters after the victory of Crimson Tide 103-80 over Texas on Tuesday. Alabama ended a journey with victories over Texas and Arkansas and will return to Tuscalus because of his long -awaited clash against No. 1 Praun on Saturday.

Here’s all that oats said after victory over Texas.

Statement

“It was a game – I would like to be able to shoot it all the time. I want to say that we shot almost 60% of 3, we fired 62% of the pitch. So, we spend a lot of time in the gym, but sometimes you get an open look, you demolish them, it helps the game go the way you want.

“We had too many speeds again. This becomes a major problem with us. You have to give a lot of credit to Texas. They entered us. They were physically with us. They forced some turnover. I thought they played hard, it’s just – we have a DIOBATE that I’m sure they chose to leave open, it goes 3 out of 3 out of 3. Jarin we know can really shoot him, but he didn’t shoot him so well In the game, but this year, but he made five 3 to send us the final four last year when we beat Clemson in the elite eight.

“So he has activated in big games before and has had great firing. He ends with a career. The league in the assessment.

“Really fortunate to achieve these two victories in the trip – both Arkansas, so here and now we have to lock ourselves. We have a very difficult stretch here these last seven games that appear. “

At his first impression he plays in the Moody Center, Texas is obstructed by injuries

“I thought the center of Moody was one of the best arenas, perhaps the best in SEC. This is my first time here. I thought it was great. They took the boxes there. They did it so small enough – what have 11,000? And if they want to make it more big – I think it’s great. I thought it was a really good atmosphere tonight to be honest with you. We are the # 2 team in the country that comes here. They sold the place I guess. So, I decided it was good. I’m a big fan of Moody center.

“I am not fully familiar with all the injuries. I know that [Tremon] Mark came out, but he played 37 minutes tonight. So I guess he wasn’t wounded too much … I knew [Arthur] Kaluma had come out. He did not start the second half and is good. He only played 11 minutes, so – obviously, when you lack a starter and we also deal with it – Raytsel was one of the best shooters in the country. He is with Achilles all year long. Houston Mallet leads the team to an offensive lever when he is inside, shot him well. After all, he will have a red shirt during the year for his knees. Derion Reed is McDonald’s All-American, who is an associate. He is out for us.

“It is definitely affected by Texas, I’m sure. I want to say that you shoot when Kaluma could not return there in the second half, you lack a starter with which you put your game plan together and then he is not there. This is difficult. He is a good player, but he is also part of the sport. We had three guys we planned to play this year. “

On his strategy against Tre Johnson

“Look, third is really good. Our thing was again, he had a very effective night to be honest with you, 9 out of 17. He scored 24 points on 17 shots is quite effective. It is not as effective as Jarin, but Jarin is not the focal point of protecting everyone like Tre. So our thing was like him, we know that he will shoot him, we just have to make sure they are difficult, contested. He will do some. He won’t make a hard enough non-rim 2S to beat us. So, don’t let him get to the rim. Let’s release it from the 3-point line. At times we didn’t do a very good job. We gave up the 3 in the corner of the game below beyond the borders. We gave up the 3 in the transition, where we did not compare it. There were a few 3 he realized we didn’t do a great job.

“But we tried to make sure they took so much non-rim 2. I looked, we took six non-rim 2s and were 3 out of 6. They took 20 and were 8 out of 20. Looking at their percent of shots-10% of Our shots were non-RIM 2 and almost 30% of their photos were non-RIM 2S. Ors was that we knew they would settle down a little about it. So with Tre we had a few traps and some eyes on what we needed. The problem was when we somehow came with the base trap and missed that we were giving up offensive struggles. So we decided it was better to just get with him by taking a heavy, contested pull over one of our defenders and we did not give up O-Borads, because they almost doubled us in points for a second chance, which is not good. They had 13, we only had 7. If we cut their second chance and our turnover had 39 points, which was half of their points, it came out of our turnover or points of the second chance.

“So we were good with Tre to take all the difficult photos he wanted. Just, we said we are entering, we have to bounce and we should not turn the ball. Well, we turned it too much and didn’t do a good enough job that bounced. But the good for us, our insult was to click quite well tonight.

About the maturity of the team, focus with a big game and if Alabama is the best team in the country

“I want to say we will see Saturday who is the best team in the country, I guess. I think we have a mature group. They know they have prepared. We enter it. The hay is in the barn, if you will, entering one of these games. We know what we need to do. We are not upset if the other team gets some difficult photos that we are ready to give up. Now the speeds that were a little upset. We had so many struggles that we gave up, it was a little disruptive.

“But we are trying to be intense, as you said very intensively. Play hard, give maximum effort. But we are not trying to fly over things. We come prepared. We know what we need to do. We do it. We fulfill the game plan and go out of here with a win.

“And do we think we are the best team in the country? I think we have a chance to be, but Ibun is the best team in the country right now and we have to kill them on Saturday if we want to claim that we are the best team in the country. “

About how winning two road games gives him more confidence before the Obun match

“I think it’s huge. We had our teas right in the middle. We were looking for the first nine games, the last nine after bye. The last nine we had five of them on the road, but we started with a road stand for two games. So now we got seven that four of the seven were at home. Only three of the seven are on the way. But I decided it was imperative to get both wins to stay in hunting to win the League. We played home against Ole Miss, who just didn’t play very well and Ole Miss play very well.

Purun released the home of one for Florida. So each of them has released home. Each of us is still getting on. We get a home and away with them, but the victories on the road are not easy in this league, I want to say at all. So, you saw the Arkansas writer is not great, but it shoots, it was a 3-point game with three minutes to get into the Arkansas game on Saturday.

“So I think you will see that some teams are upset. I didn’t see any of the last results of the first matches tonight. I saw that I was 12 very late in the game I last saw. I guess they won. Kentucky defeated Tennessee? It was in Kentucky? Yes, so you go. Tennessee is a really good team. I think the indicators, the indicators have Tennessee in front of us and they enter Kentucky, and this was a difficult victory for us to get to Kentucky and Tennessee loses in Kentucky. So, there is no guarantee in the victories on the road. I want to say everyone – shoot to South Carolina, I guess they still have no victory, but they played in the opposite to like two points, in my opinion. So, you go to a place like South Carolina, which has failed to win, they still play the best teams in the League really difficult in their place.

“Getting two wins on the road to this trip is big for us. It gives us some confidence. However, we played well on the road. That is, I think our eighth game in a row we put 85 on the road. So we are inclined – we have a group of veteran. They tend to like the way for some reason. They like to see the stands empty early when they may and seem to take this role as a villain, if you are going to enter and tear down some teams on the road.

“So I love this group, they play hard. It’s great to see some of these guys – you know that DIBATE and JARIN shoot it really well tonight and contribute to a great offensive game for us. “
