After shedding to archrival Auburn of their first assembly of the season a couple of weeks in the past, the No. 7 Alabama Crimson Tide had been in a position to get some revenge on Saturday to shut out their common season. Alabama pulled off a dramatic, 93-91, time beyond regulation win on the highway due to a Mark Sears buzzer-beater simply as time expired, leaving the Auburn crowd in shocked silence.
Take a look.
Sears was solely 3-of-9 from the sector on Saturday and completed with 9 factors. However on this case, it was not the amount that mattered — it was the timing.
The win closes out Alabama’s common season with a 24-7 document.
Alabama ended the common season with a gauntlet of a schedule that noticed it play seven consecutive video games towards ranked opponents, together with 4 towards top-five groups. The Crimson Tide went 3-4 in these video games.
Auburn, in the meantime, ends its common season on a two-game shedding streak after shedding to Texas A&M on Tuesday night.
There may be at all times the chance that the 2 groups might meet once more within the SEC match, and even perhaps within the NCAA match. If the primary two conferences — and particularly Saturday’s recreation — are any indication, they might be unbelievable conferences with extra at stake.
