The obligatory Arkansas thread

[ManitouDan_anon]

Just wanted to say how much I hate them and their coach and I hope this trash Missouri team beats them , and that A Theiro flops like a total ***** . Mr muscle man , plays so damn weak . Ark gets a foul called every trip down

Ummmmm Missouri isn’t trash lol, they just kicked the **** outta the team that just kicked the **** outta UK But yes… I hope Arkansas loses

 

[thebluestripes]

Really dislike, yes

Hate, no

go tigers

 

[UK67KU59]

Hope arky loses in heartbreaking fashion. And I hope they miss the tourney.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

I'm not buying Mz is any good . one stupid point is there have been 14 foul calls in the first 7 min of half # 2 ... 1 every 30 seconds . Stupid .

 

[Big BlueBeard]

I hope Arky never wins another game. Ever.

 

[hotelblue]

there was point earlier where ark got a deflection to force a mizzou inbounds with just a few seconds left on the shot clock. the announcer said “excellent defense by arkansas”. i said to myself, let’s see about this inbounds. mizzou lobbed to a forward in the middle of the paint with no one within 10 feet of him and he jammed it.

ark has let them score within two seconds on inbound plays at least 4 times.

 

[Ron Mehico]

I’ve been impressed with Missouri every game I’ve watched them this season

 

[JustBlue_rivals48238]

Arkansas pulling away a bit

 

[Boyd94]

Thiero hangs on the rim every dunk and never gets a technical. I guess they quit calling it?

 

[ABLCommenter]

The obsession is getting weird. Can we focus on our squad and not the low hanging fruit? Jesus.

 

[bbnkat02]

lol, and here this night couldn't get any worse. Arky saving their *** into the tournament.

I hate CBB right now.

Let us do it and you will see a technical

Arkansas looking good in the second half. Driving to the hoop every play

Sound familiar Cal’s inbound defense, perfect

I agree, Mizzou is legit.

 

[R.O.T.Muckinfush]

Just saw Houston Nutt in the stands at the Arkansas game. Maybe we could hire him for fb coach... looks alot more sober and healthy than stoops.

 

[TX Wildcat]

Credit to Arky, they play good D and are revealing the blueprint to beat a visiting Mizz team (drive to the basket and get points in the paint while hoping the Tigers go cold from 3). Mizz transition D is getting killed too!

I do find it tough to watch Big Z. He is a talent, but his face after every play gives me "Duke player" vibes.

I do not care if Arky wins or loses tbh.

 

[Festivus Miracle]

Arkansas is very talented. No reason they should be 4-9 in the SEC. They are going to make the dance and probably win at least one game.

The blueprint is to shoot twice as many free throws.

Looking at their lineup, probably better than ours... not a huge fan of z though.

 

[Dreklie]

there is nothing worse than losing then watching Arkansas get a win at home that probably puts them in the tournament smfh.

 

[Festivus Miracle]

I can easily see them advancing to the second weekend. However, they will have a poor perimeter shooting game and go out.

not if thiero’s hamstring is serious.

 

[TX Wildcat]

Yeah, 23-31 ARK vs. 12-15 MIZZ is bad. Arkansas has been very aggressive to the hoop though and when coupled with the Oscar worthy grimaces from Z and flops form AT they add up.

ARK may end up shooting 40!

Yeah there is one reason they are 4-9 with that much talent.

Man, some of you need help. Cal is gone. We didn’t have to pay him $50MM or whatever it was. Cal could have drawn this out and made it really ugly. He didn’t and now we have Pope, which is awesome. If you are hanging part of your happiness on Arkansas losing, you have serious issues.

 

[Kats23]

You’re telling me a top 15 team went on the road in the SEC and lost? That can’t be right…only Kentucky does that. I hope there’s 50 threads on Mizzou’s message boards about the coaches rotation and him being too nice.

Oh wait…you’re telling me they did this without major injury to their roster. That doesn’t matter. Still the mizzou fan base should riot

 

[Anon1658882690]

Ark is gonna end up with 9 wins in the sec.. They have 4 gimme games coming up.. Probably end up with same conference record as us as I see us going 2-2 next 4 games unless Butler comes back..

 

[Festivus Miracle]

I agree. Tonight was a huge win. I think they win out. Could take an L against Vandy.

Amen!

 

[ala_kat2]

Arkansas has better talent than us when we have to play without Butler. They have more “athletes” but we have better shooters if we can get open. Arkansas’ defense, especially on the perimeter, is better than ours, minus Butler. They’ve been playing well in February.

It's a favorable schedule but with Cal they will drop at least 1. 8 and 10 gets them n ncaa though.

Agree, the hogs have better athletic talent than the Cats, the Cats do a better job of playing as a team most of the time. The Hogs should have a winning record right now in conference but they don't, if they don't win out they could miss the NCAA.

 

[EliteBlue]

Just like I said it would happen. The $EC is predictable. Arkansas got to live at the free throw line offensively and grab and hold defensively bc they needed the win to get on the good side of the bubble. The league isn’t missing a chance to get that guaranteed $$$

37-17 freethrow disparity

 

[Lukasz0brzut]

Arkansas is playing solid basketball right now. They do the things well that we do poorly.

 

[ABLCommenter]

Two things can be true: the obsession is weird and is a bad look, as I said above. However, I still think they need to hit 20 wins to get in the tourney? Are they legit on the bubble?

I think they can easily take Texas bid. Texas with an atrocious loss at sc tonight. They need to finish 8 and 10 n sec to be in IMO. In thus sec that gets them in.

 

[bbnkat02]

Man, bad day to be a Kentucky fan.

1. Cal just beat a damn good team.
2. Arky fans running their mouths.
3. Social media is dogging the crap out of us.

Ugh.

 

[HenryMuto]

And they have the tie breaker for SEC seeding
