As his head coach Nate Oats stated moments earlier, the Crimson Tide’s run in this year’s NCAA Tournament was cut short too soon. Top-seeded Alabama looked like a shell of itself Friday night, falling 71-64 to No. 5 seed San Diego State in the Sweet 16. A Crimson Tide team that used its high-volume shooting from deep to bury opponents earlier in the year made just 3 of 27 shots from beyond the arc against the Aztecs.
