We often save one of our worst performances of the year for BWA, so I'll go Arkansas 98 State 71

Kingsley is a matchup nightmare for us. While we were better inside against LSU, their big man still had 19 and 13. Also, they always seem to make a million three's when we play at BWA and they have enough shooters to do so.

Expecting an entertaining game, just not a win.

If we can somehow avoid turning it over against the press and make arky play defense in the half court I like our chances. Their defenses are not very good when they have to actually defend for a whole possession. I'll go 88-75 State

Every once in a while we pull one out of our *** up there. Why not now? 77-75 Dogs.

The preseason SEC player of the year is the third leading scorer....on his own team. I'm sure as soon as I type this, he'll go for 30 and 20, but it seems to me like we have 15 fouls of Holman, Herard and Strugg to throw at him. Slight advantage to us in that he's not a real bang it in from the block guy. He's only getting to the line about four times per game. For comparison, Yante Maten shoots about 10 a game. Now, can we handle Macon and Barford? They are big strong guys to try and match up with. I think a key is how well we keep them out of the paint. We let Bama drive way too much. Then if you control all of that you always have to know where Hannahs is. Tough hill to climb especially up there. Would be a good night to grow up some more.
