Cooking pork steaks on Saturday. I've had this game circled for quite some time. Hope the boys put the Hogs in their place at BWA.

And for you all attending, represent and get LOUD!!!

I've had this one circled myself too. Looking forward to it. At the same time, I think both games against Arky are going to be tough, especially there. Just don't get embarrassed. The place is going to be electric and frankly, MA's style of play could give us fits, especially at their place where they won't get as many fouls called against them. If they come out with a lot of on ball pressure and hand checking, it could give us fits. Should be a good test. MIZ!!!

I've said I expect a split with them. Hope I'm wrong - I'd love to see us beat them in both places.

Given our last two performances, I am more optimistic. But it's going to be tough to win there. There's no way they're "looking past us," so we're going to get their best swing. Hopefully our players give their best, too.

My exact sentiment!

It will be the true "test" to see if this team has come together or not. The MSU was a perfect game for us to get that road monkey off of our back. This will be the first real chance to see if this team has gelled and might make a run in the tourney.

Yep. 2 weeks ago I would have given us a 10% chance to win this game. Taking into account the last 2 games, I would say roughly 20-25% chance of a victory in BWA. It will be tough.

We might need a drinking game for this one.

Shot every time someone says "gel'.
Shot every time Flip turns the ball over.
What else we got?

We get too many more we might be drunk by halftime. How about something about how Mike Anderson used to coach at Mizzou...I have a feeling we might hear that a few times

Shot for every article of attire that Haith removes?

Was in my local watering hole outside of Memphis and all the Ar Kansas fans think Missouri is going to beat the crap out of their hogs tonight.

I do not see it but they are not "High on the Hog" this evening. Maybe they know something that justifies a little monetary wager is in order.

Not a chance I'm putting anything on this game. MA's style of play could give this team fits with the lack of true ball handlers after Pressey, especially at home where they're not likely to be called for hand=checking.
