I’d rather have played Kansas to be honest and I think we got the worst 2nd round matchup
But we are beating them Saturday I already booked my hotel in San Francisco

Shouldn't the 2 seed get the advantage of the extra rest over the 10 seed in a Thursday late Saturday early scenario?

Team really needs to do better on the boards. I think the fact we are such a superior offensive rebounding team sometimes masks our defensive rebounding shortcomings when look at overall statistics. really need to get more from Aaron on the boards defensively
We win and we cover.
Arkansas is giddy after playing a mistake filled game and beating a super disinterested Kansas team, that lollygaged on defense.
SJU will be very interested.. SJU will be relentless on defense. This team is ready. And even if Arkansas lands the first punch, SJU will simply dust it off and follow that up with a flurry of haymakers of their own. Arkansas will not know what hit them.
Let’s Effin’ Go!

Give me frenetic any day over deliberate half court offenses a la Creighton. Plays right into our hands and leads to easy buckets for us.A solid outing by Sim last night and we need him to continue that v athletic, frenetic Arkansas where the pace merits three quality contributions from our guards. Take Rick handily in the coaching chess game also.
Agreed. Two athletic bigs who played better down the stretch. Thiero is still out, but Fland is back and had one game to knock the rust off. They essential used a 7-man rotation against KU, so hopefully we can wear them down.
And it hints one of their guys played the entire game yesterday or close to it

Calipari had no offensive answer when Kansas went zone...and it wasn't even a great zone. How does a coach of his caliber not know how to adjust? Same with the inbounds play at the end of the game with Boogie. They are sloppy, I don't think it matters if this is a track meet or not. As long as we take care of the boards we win.
It’s become like a Hollywood script . Aaron Scott. Has beencalled for 2 Fouls before he leaves the bench before the first tip off .
Refs must have got a email from Breeding .
Don’t discount the fact that Scott and KR spent much of the 1st half as spectators on the Bench .Which gave Omaha a fantasy chance of a win .
2nd half typical Johnnies . 50 points in 20 minutes .
Wilcher had a good game shooting . Smith too .We will need Smith’s motor against the Razorbacks .
Kansas had the game Won , until they didn’t . Dickenson was a Zero as he has been for much of his Jayhawk’s career .
They never got him the ball in the post . Mayo too shot happy and loose with the ball .
Kansas fans ruing that Zuby is playing for the Redmen and not them . He could have been the difference .
On a unrelated note , Port Washington Vikings Boys BB team , 1 Win away from NYS Championship . First time in 75 years .
Go Vikings !
Calipari’s - 66
Pitino’s - 78
I believe head to head they have met 4 times and it’s tied 2-2. Pitino the better game coach, Cal usually has more talented players.
They both played well last night. Ruben's frantic D helped wake the team up, and Vince's solid D and bucket at the end of the first half were big.
