Walters is a fantastic shooter but he can't guard a stick in the mud. Again, personel is just gonna be an issue against teams like this.
Yep. The unfortunate thing is that we’ll see a similar defense Wednesday. Fortunately Auburn isn’t as good offensively.

Just hope we can split with Auburn this year. This team ain’t winning the league. That’s fine.

Hopefully we can get the right matchups in March.

Sam issue isn't guarding...his issue is BALL WATCHING.

Why do we always seem to get aubie in Tuscaloosa for a midweek game? Intention or unfortunate?

It always seems that way. Both games against Auburn are midweek this year.

Estrada is my biggest disappointment on this team. He’s a horrible ball handler, horrible passer, horrible defender and horrible decision maker. He offers Sears little to no help in the backcourt scoring wise or ball handling. I’d rather have Nimari than him.

It’s time we accept this is not a very talented basketball team and that’s ok. Let’s not get worked up over losses to good teams. Tennessee has had the same core and they play like it. Our coach allowed our best point guard and best defensive guard to walk away and we truly miss both. We also never see Davin Cosby. Sears is the only true starting sec caliber guard we have. Griffin is ok but he’s not a premier guy. He’d be a great bench guy.

I know Muss has turned it around in the past but I think Arkansas is legitimately done this year

I mean he allowed Bediako to enter the draft as in Bediako has free will, yes.

Totally disagree on Estrada. Has been the second best player in this team. Solid addition

Estrada has been AWFUL OFFENSIVELY and DEFENSIVELY. Playing hero ball too much.

Pringle has been good.

Grant needs to get on the block when we are struggling to score.

We are attached to some players like they are deadly shooters. Josiah James is a horrible shooter and Mashack is as well...they will have to beat me with their perimeter shooting.

They are allowing them to impede our drives. Mashack should've had 3 fouls easily.

We are still in the game...we just got to battle. Our guards need too calm down and play ball.

Grants handles aren’t tight enough to drive into traffic at this level. He looks good doing it against MidMajor but against the P6 teams he always gets it poked away and turns it over.

I wasn’t referring to him but Oats ran his mouth about JQ and it is evident we needed he and Burnett. Oats pretended like we would be better without them.

The problem in the first half is simple.
too many turnovers

We're not a terribly good defensive team. That's why we shouldn't complain in defense.
In the first half, the score difference was due to the large difference in turnovers.

Dude shut up.

Oats didn't run his mouth about JQ.

Always listening to some Internet gossip

He did make comments after JQ left. And I stand on what I said JQ is 100x better than Estrada.

Nobody panic. I went and found my lucky shirt.

But seriously, cut the turnovers in half and we're maybe down 5-6 right now. I think Mark and Griffen are going to need to drive every play until UT adjusts.

I hope we show some life here. Take care of the ball and get some open looks. Make shots.

At least make it a close game.
