-Kentucky scored more than us

-Not sure what the total points in paint was for Kentucky, but at one point it was around 40 points

-The Wildcats also completed a season sweep of five ranked opponents by an average of nearly 17 points per game - a number that jumps to 20.3 when figuring in their 39-point blowout of UCLA.

-Kentucky Shot 15/20 free throws in the 1st half. One needs to make the free throws.

-Qualls led Arkansas with 17 points and 9 rebounds in 36 minutes.

-Portis had 15 points and 8 rebounds in 32 minutes

-WCS had 7 points and 9 rebounds in 32 minutes

-Andrew and Llyes combined for 36 points and 10/10 from freethrow line

-Kentucky 24 points from the bench. Arkansas had 7 points from the bench from 8 guys.

Check Bill Russell's career stats...not very impressive either.

Kentucky steamrolled you like they are doing to everyone, when they aren't taking the night off.

You have a very good basketball team. Better than ours. Welcome to the world of reality.

Exactly. No shame in losing to this Kentucky team. I wanted Arky to win, but I think everyone knew it was a punchers chance at best.

Kind of felt like Arkansas was trying to out physical Kentucky. It didn't serve them well.

Imo, the real beauty of Uk's game was that Calipari took the Hogs style of play and ran them into the ground with it. That's a coaches way of rubbing it in with class...and don't think that wasn't exactly what happened, because UK could have beaten them just about any way they wanted to.

Post game comments saying how Hogs have beat them 3x in a row because we are a physical team, but this year we got more people.


Kentucky was deeper this year compared to last year.

I think the result will be the same, but I would like to see our guys get another shot at the champ in the SEC tournament. I think they can give them a better game than they did yesterday.

I was very impressed with Kentucky.

This reminded me of the 2010 football season, when LSU and Bama crushed us, but that didn't change the fact that we had a very good team that year.

LSU and BAMA were playing at a whole different level

I don't feel any need to disparage Coach Cal or the Kentucky BB program. We got their A game and had no chance yesterday; I'm not in the least embarrassed about that.

FWIW, it didn't have anything to do with "rubbing it in", instead it had to do with the fact that Kentucky finally played a team that would run with them. Pretty much everyone in the last several games have chose to push them into a half court set and slow the tempo. Kentucky plays their best when they can open it up and play that fast tempo.

Will Ole Miss get a host site or will the Tad Pad be held against them?

Id feel the same way if it had been UF getting that azz whipped. No shame.

We really owe the UK BB program thanks for keeping the SEC in publics eye during the off FB season and their media attention is fine with me. The Big 12 is trying to beat their chest and I wish we could see a one vs one matchup with those buttsniffers.

Your best shot at beating Kentucky this year is to either sneak up on them or hope they have one of those complete meltdown games. I was impressed with their depth and athletic ability.
