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.

I have one question for you. And I’d prefer an honest answer.

Why do you think your cat is gay? My male cats have peckers and they are always on the prowl. They come home for dinner, a few pets and words of encouragement. Now half of the cats in the neighborhood looks like my two male cats. So Im wondering what is going on there.

There are only 3 top 20 sec teams. We beat one by 25 and we can’t play ourselves. Not our fault the rest of the league is down.

I guess when your football teams stink you have to latch onto something.
