Everybody loves to watch a train wreck.

What dude? We've been in the top 20 all year and are 5-2 in conference. What train wreck?

I'm sure the Duke game around Thanksgiving was significant in that total, but that's an impressive ranking nonetheless.

This is heavily slanted to the teams that played on Thanksgiving Day. It’s not like all of America said, “I can’t wait to watch Arkansas vs Duke”. It’s more like, “Well the NFL game is over… I guess we’ll just leave it on this channel.”

Those Thanksgiving games got like 5 million viewers. Most big games during the season only get around 1 million.

This points to waning interest in collegiate men’s basketball.

Thanksgiving games are supposed to be top tier matchups. Sorry the rest of you that are hating aren't top tier. Have a tissue.

Some of us play big football games that weekend. Sorry the battle of the Ozarks is such a snoozfest every year.

Kentucky didn’t play on Thanksgiving Day. And played Tennessee Tech the night before on SECN.

5-2 in conference


Not everyone has had the luxury of playing Ole Miss, SC, and LSU in 3 of their first 7 conference games. And Auburn who has looked suspect most of this season demolished Arkansas.

To be fair Arkansas has also beaten Texas Tech, Tennessee, Louisville, and Vanderbilt by 25.
