Arrr! The Alabama crew pulled a right cheeky Christian Laettner stunt on Tuesday eve, shiverin' me timbers, to sail into the Round of 64 in the grand March Madness seas, bestin' the good ol' St. Francis crew! Aye, a jolly good show, mateys!
Ahoy there, mateys! Welcome aboard the raucous ship of March Madness, where Alabama State be settin' sail into the tempestuous waters of the First Four games! On a fateful Tuesday night, the crew of Alabama State plundered victory from the clutches of St. Francis (Pa.) with a nail-bitin' score of 70-68, thanks to a miraculous shot that be worthy of a legend! With the score knotted like a sailor's best knot at 68 and but a mere 3.4 seconds on the clock, young Micah Simpson launched a Hail Mary longer than a sea voyage from one end of the court to the other! The ball danced like a drunken parrot in the air until it landed in the hands of Amarr Knox, who made a swift layup that echoed through the ages! St. Francis, left with but one second for a last-ditch effort, cast their hopes to the wind, only to see their shot fall shorter than a landlubber's sea legs! Now, Alabama State be lookin' to duel the mighty No. 1 Auburn in the next round, and they be just the crew to rattle those fancy folks, especially since Auburn's been floundering like a fish outta water, losin' three of their last four! As for Knox, our hero of the night, he led the charge with 16 points, makin’ him the toast of the tavern! Yarrr!
