Alabama Hoops, Super Bowl and Taylor Swift on The Joe Gaither Show

What went wrong in the Iron Bowl of basketball on The Joe Gaither Show | Episode 168: Feb. 9, 2024.

Happy Friday on "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral" as we get you ready for the weekend. 

First we have to go back to Wednesday night and acknowledge that playing on the road has been just too much for this season's Alabama basketball team. The Tide went down to Auburn and fell 99-81 to split the regular season series. How will Alabama play on the road with the remaining four conference matchups?

Next we ask if Alabama head coach Nate Oats was out of line asking for more defense from his best player, senior Mark Sears? 

Then we debate Oats's recruiting style as a colleague suggested the Crimson Tide opt to bring in a strong power forward into the program. Have we already seen what that player looks like in an Alabama uniform under Oats?

The program then dives into the fun of the weekend as we make our SEC basketball weekend picks followed up by our pick for the Super Bowl. There are no former Alabama players in this years Super Bowl so who do we predict will win?

The show finishes up with Taylor Swift as she's one of the hottest topics of the football season. We wrap up with 16 prop bets that you can make involving the superstar singer with our opinions on the props, for entertainment purposes only, of course. 

Keep up with each show on Youtube, Facebook and Twitter. Shows can also be heard on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Amazon.
