The program opens and lives largely in the great performance from the Crimson Tide against the Cougars.

Alabama coach Nate Oats knew the shots were due to start dropping for Mark Sears, and the Crimson Tide were primed to break out from the 3-point line. With an NCAA Tournament-record 25 3-pointers, Alabama earned a trip to the Elite Eight for the second consecutive season as Sears scored 34 points in a 113-88 victory over sixth-seeded BYU in the East Region on Thursday night.
