It’s good that a win is a win, because there were no style points for the Tide last night. Southern Miss almost earned their first win of 2015 against the Alabama team that coach Avery Johnson said this week that he was “pleasantly surprised” with.
Retin Obasohan led all scorers with 20 points, including 2 free throws just under the 2:00 mark in the second half that would be Alabama’s last points of the game. Arthur Edwards also came up strong with 17 points after starting the game with three consecutive made 3-point shots.
The rebounding (or complete lack thereof) has me worried going forward.
