The Alabama basketball team went on the road to Starkville on Saturday trying to break a two game losing streak. Instead, the only thing that was broken was their hearts in a 78-76 loss to the Mississippi State Bulldogs. The Tide fell to 11-6 overall and 2-3 in the league while the Dogs improved to 12-4 and 3-1 in the SEC. The same culprits that have haunted the team continued Saturday, poor defense, turnovers, an inability to hit three point shots, and being unable to control the other teams offensive rebounding.
The Tide has taken "live by the three, die by the three" to whole new level.
