Nine Aztecs play, eight score in win over top-seeded Crimson Tide; 'We're not a one-player team,' Brian Dutcher says
The other day, San Diego State coach Brian Dutcher was talking about his team and its magical postseason run.It was Friday night in the biggest victory in school history, 71-64 against No. 1 overall seed Alabama in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.Nine guys played, no one more than 30 minutes, most in the low 20s. Eight scored. Nine had at least one rebound; seven had at least three. Five had an assist. Six had a steal. Eight drew at least two fouls. Six made a free throw.
Darrion Trammell equaled his season high with 21 points. The only other player in double figures was Jaedon LeDee with 12. The rest of the box score was filled with nine, eight, seven, six, a couple guys with four. “The issue is not having a deep bench,” Dutcher said. “The issue is everybody buys into a deep bench. They’re not crying when they come out. I mean, we took the starting five out three or four minutes into the second half, even before the first TV timeout.
