You're really this upset that Arkansas is gonna make the tournament?


Arkansas will not make the Tourney. Hell, they might not make the NIT.

Are you an Arky fan or LSU fan? Sometimes I see you in arky treads calling the hogs "we" and other times you talk shite about them, I just think it's a bit strange lad.

Also I think Arky makes the tourney

The only way Arkansas doesn't make the tournament is if they lose 11-12 games+.

Don't see it, they'll get in.

So Arkansas would be in the tourney with a 17 or 18 win season? No possible way you believe that.
Arkansas is looking at an absolute best case scenario of finishing the season going 6-2. They are not going to compete with UF or USCe so let's go ahead and call that. That gives them a pretty good shot assuming they aren't 1 and done in the SEC tourney.
I still say they have 3 remaining losses and that puts them on the bubble.
If LSU is one of those losses then that's game over. They are out no matter what if they lose that game.

Arky is on the bubble. They really haven't beaten anyone. And are starting to pile up bad losses

0 "good" wins. The lone "decent" win is at Tennessee which is absolutely embarrassing.

Not sure how they can justify Miami making it in.

No shite Auburn has almost as good a resume as Miami.

Arkansas got screwed by Texas schools shitting the bed that they needed to be good

Texas- Top25 to start now losing record

UTArlington- Expected to be 27+W solid midmajlr, maybe goes 24W if lucky

Houston- Should have been solid tournament team but has some baffling loses

TexasA&M- Should have been another quality SEC team

They have 17 wins now, you can't possibly be saying they are going to lose the rest of their games?

They just won 5 straight in the SEC. Not like it's hard even when you're just a barely above average team.

There is a reason Joe Lunardi left Arkansas untouched following the Mizzou loss, 9 seed before and after, not even one of the last four in. Lunardi is VERY accurate with teams getting in the field.

So you're saying the Hogs should have lost to avoid the embarrassment of winning?

Let me guess. He picks like 66/68 right? Anyone who pays half a bit of attention could do that.

You only have to pick about 36 schools I think since the other are Autobids.


About 30 of those picks are very very obvious. Another ~2 are good bets and only about 4 spots are up for debate


If you can't pick 60/68 you are an idiot

The committee seems very metric heavy and Arkansas still sports a 36 RPI. Losing to SC and FL wouldn't really hurt the RPI.


This and Lunardi said this is the worst bubble teams that there have been in a number of years.

Normally sorts itself out down the conference stretch + tournaments though.

It's embarrassing when your best win is against a 10 loss team. I'll be sure to attach training wheels next time I reply to you.

You said they'd be in with 11-12+ losses. Do you know how many games are in a season? I was just pointin out that you're not very bright if you think a team that is 18-13 or 19-12 will make the tourney with the resume Arkansas has. I know what their record is. They have 17 wins against absolutely nobody and have the worst loss of anyone in the field.
I think their only chance of getting in is winning 6 of the last 8 and making to deep in the SEC tourney. I feel sorry for you that you live in 1995 when Nolan ball actually worked. I live in the present where we have a coach that has made post season once in 6 yrs.
