NCAA Tournament Thread

Arkansas ‘us against the world’ mentality is about to take them all the way to the Elite 8.
 
So frustrating.
Frustrating because we barely lost to them and played one of our worst games ever. We were a better team this season than how we showed out vs Arkansas. They’re blowing out Texas tech and yet on our worst day we barely lose to them. We really could have made big waves this season if we didn’t have a horrible collapse in that game.
 
Absolutely masterful coaching job by Grant McC. A lot of coaches would have sat their all league team player if he was struggling. But no Grant bucked the trend to sit your best player in crunch time and was rewarded with Williams hitting the 3 to send it to overtime then the game winner in said OT.
 
Arkansas with all their size gave up like 50,000 offensive rebounds in last 10 minutes. The one time they got a defensive rebound the player was so stunned he just stood there holding the ball out and got tied up possession arrow to Tech. I give tons of credit to Tech on a spirited comeback but my gosh if Arky comes up with one defensive rebound they win the game.
 
Are you saying TT was making plays ? 😀
The sand man came for me and I couldn’t stay awake. I thought Arkansas had the game in the bag. Sounds like they choked one away. Not sure how I feel about that. I kept thinking damn we could’ve beat TT. Must’ve been a big rally.
 
We play Arkansas neutral court Ten times, we win 7 maybe 8.

Just sayin'.


BJR , I think we beat them 9 of 10 but , could give them 1 game to avoid a shut out .

Wow, just finished reading all the posts about how Arkansas was taking it to TT and was going to move on ,

Just to recap , Kansas had Ark beat a week ago with that Zone , until the Jay Hawks threw the game away on offense . The Hogs were wilting like a Azaela plant at Augusta in May .

Against St John’s , we had cut a 12 point lead to 2 , 62-60 with 4:56 to go. The Hogs had already jumped into the frying pan and became crisp Bacon. We were at their throats and ready to put together another late game run to win the game .

Texas Tech down double digits with 4 minutes to go , finally puts the nail in the coffin and again , the Hogs collapse .

Point being, the Calipari’s could / should have been taken out by both , Kansas and SJU last week .
