Wide broadcast view of a March Madness Elite Eight game: Arizona (white) pushes the ball in transition up the right side against Purdue (black). Score shows Arizona leading 48–45 early in the second half.

Arizona swings the ball to the right corner where a player in white rises for an open three-pointer, with Purdue defenders scrambling back toward the paint.

The shot drops cleanly through the net as Arizona players and bench react, extending their lead while Purdue players turn to run upcourt.

With that, it would be great if users on Blue Sky here tonight would give me feedback on the posts with the alt texts.

My goal is to get this fully going by Final Four.

I’ll be test posting late evening tonight.

For record, I am using AI to generate Alt Text, but I am giving it context to make sure output is correct. Because of real time nature of the game, I can’t write alt text individually, it would take too long……
