    Vanderbilt bench's behind basket??

    I believe this is the first time I've seen Vandy's gym, and I see Alabama's bench is behind the basket. With all that room on the far sideline, why behind the basket? Interesting! Certainly unique!

    Yeah... That place annoys me. Hate that setup. Stallings is a good coach though.

    Bama got jobbed tonight btw.

    I did watch most of the contest, and it did seem like a good bit of the calls did go against 'Bama. However, that didn't deter from the cover, which was my chief concern.

    that last no call against green under the basket was bull shit. Or the one where mitchell was thrown to the ground. The Vandy fans were so loud with their boos i think it scared the pussy refs from making any more calls.

    Yeah, Memorial Gym is weird with its elevated court and baseline benches.

    Vandy is one of those teams that truly has a homecourt advantage.

    Bama coach blew up at the end. Shocked he didn't get a technical, but I agree with the coach - definitely should have been a foul.

    First... hate that damn gym. The SEC or NCAA should make them match the setup of every other gymnasium college teams play at. It is a significant advantage for the home team. Moreso, than in any other sport or could be duplicated. For half the game a team on offense can't even hear their coach try to call plays because he's on the other end of the court.

    Secondly... you go into that gymnasium, Vandy is a different team shooting there. They just fill it up in their home place.

    Lastly... you're gonna get jobbed in that place as the visitor. That place is worth 10 points to the home team, easily.

    Relax bama fan from that other thread where we debated, I really can't believe you claim to be neutral with your analysis, without the "home court calls" 3 weeks ago your team doesn't beat Kentucky by 2 now the "home court calls" for Vandy take this win away from you

    Fair calls = you'd have won last night but lost to Kentucky, with the "home court calls" your now complaining about = you stole the one against Kentucky by 2 and then Vandy needed "home court calls" to steal this one from you by 4

    it all evens out unless your one of the really hated teams (which Bama is not)
