Good point. Zero relevance but good point anyway.

Going to be in the tourney for sure?

The wins over Colorado and K-State aren't turning out to be as good as they thought. Yes, a good RPI as of now, but we don't know how they'll fair in conference play. Maybe put them in the same tier as Florida, Arkansas, and LSU. Fine. But a lock for the tourney? lol

I would like to see Arkansas schedule more/better opponents at neutral sites since good opponents will not agree to home/homes with us at this time, mainly because they don't want to play us at home.

To me, neutral site records says more a bout a team than road games, mainly because that is where tourney games are played and not all road trips are equal, some places with a dead atmosphere are just as tough to play in as a plays with a lively crowd.

Kentucky is the only lock for the tourney, 5-6 teams will be competing for the 3-4 other seeds from the SEC this year.

I think USC isn't getting the credit they should to this point. To say they're already an NCAA lock is ridiculous.

Yes "barring an awful collapse." Which they are more than capable of. I didn't say the word lock. All signs point to being in though.

They only play LSU, Arkansas, florida, and Bama once. Losing to Kentucky twice won't hurt at all. So even if they lose ALL of those games (they won't) they'd be still be in good shape to win 10 or 11 conference games.

Dawgs are tourney bound

They are, they beat an Iowa St team on a neutral court who had an off night shooting the ball.

This doesn't make them a lock for the NCAAs like some of their fan base thinks.

Arkansas did it on their own.

This isn't football where a single game defines a season.

Maybe our scoring defense made them have an off night???

Yea I think it's ridiculous people are saying iowa state "had an off night shooting"

No shite. We hold opponents to around 35% from the field. It's called good defense and it's what makes this team great.

When ucla started 0- whatever people weren't saying they had an off night, they were drooling over the UK defense. USC's defense should be getting similar respect.

But I guess it will take a couple conference game whoopings for people to come around.

Wonder who many believers we get after waxing UF Wednesday?

Have you not seen Florida play this year?

It was an off night for Iowa St, they will face better defensive teams in the big12 and not have a night shooting that poor.

USC has some awful losses. Kinds of losses they can keep you out as a bubble team. I think they are vastly improved but it's funny how some of your fans assume you will be a lock for second place

Yes I have and they suck, but another blowout win to follow up the Iowa state victory would probably turn some heads.

no they won't.

I don't think you've seen us play
