'Highlights' of the game. at 10:41 to go in the firsthalf the score was 
4-2 in UAB's favore. At the time they had out rebounded UC 12-0. This is
not a missprint. On one offensive possesion UAB grabed three offensive 
robounds then kicked it back out to start stalling it again. All in all
they stalled for over 2 minutes before Cinn got the ball back.

This stall game allmost gave UAB the game. At certine times Cinn was 
very over aggressive at they seemed out of there game. Regardless
of weather you liked it or not, Stalling did allow UAB to beat Memphis
State at Memphis and almost helped UAB to steel a win against the Bearcats.

UAB has had very bad luck so far this year with there best Defender, George
Wilkerson, having to sit out with a bad foot. He, IMHO, my be the best
defender in the country and had worked very hard in the off season to 
inprove his shoot, and was before he hurt his foot, making the three
consistantly. Also Stan Rose who now is scoring over thirty at 
Weber State would be a senoir here this year if he did not fall in love
and decide to be closer to his girlfriend. Also UAB was hurt by the 
departure of a JC transfer back to Texas because he was home sick. (Name
of Hooks, went to Trinity Valley but I don't remember his first name)
Also with Stanly Jackson in a 8 game shooting slump UAB has been 
very over matched recently, so Bartow did the only thing he could do with 
his personal, he slowed the game up.

Kelly Tripuca announced the game for the station that I watched the 
game on here in Birmingham and did a very crediable job announcing
but did have a few good misques. such as:

Saying stay tuned for the half time highlights. at 15-11 when both teams
ar shooting 20 and 26% from the field and cinn is shooting 33% from the
line, WHAT HIGHLIGHTS? They could have shown all the baskets twice
and still had time to show highlights from every other UAB game
last week.

When Cinn went to their traping defense they traped Corry Jackson, our 
point gaurd (Unless you have seen him then you know how bad of a 
point he is) and said that is the man they want to trap. Why would you 
want to trap the best passer on the other team?

And of course my personal favorite, he was going over the 
first half highlights he said 'then Cinn went on a run'
HOW CAN YOU GO ON A RUN WHEN YOU ONLY SCORED 11 POINTS IN THE HALF??????
