Well how about that? It seems that my recap curse is broken, and Alabama finally managed to put away a weaker team after toppling a ranked team. The Tide didn’t just put LSU away, either, they did it in style.
When Dazon Ingram broke his multi-game 3-point drought by draining a 3 on the opening possession, you could almost feel the confidence oozing from the Tide. Collin Sexton and Donta Hall quickly got in on the action, and Alabama was up 7-0 before you could say “corndog.”
LSU rallied, and brought it back to a one-score game at 14-12, but then Alabama went on another run (fueled mostly by Hall continuing to flex on everyone) and got out to a 10 point lead.
