If we had known they were going to beat themselves our team could have stayed at the hotel and watched the game on TV.

This is a ridiculous take. What if 5/17 were really bad calls? What if Arkansas should have had 15 more?

Raw numbers in fouls don’t tell the whole story

The only reason Gonzaga had 17 fouls is because they had to start fouling at the end. Gonzaga was in the double bonus with over 10 minutes left. We weren't even in the bonus at all until the very end when they had to foul tn get the ba back. They had 3-4 fouls to give that late in the game. In this instance, it's not a ridiculous take. The media and Gonzaga are in meltdown mode over this. Yahoo Sports wrote an article highlighting every call that went against Gonzaga. So many comments everywhere about how the refs gave Arkansas the game. I can't think of a more satisfying victory than this.

Congrats Razorbacks. I wish I could say I'll be rooting for you but to be honest unless you play Duke I probably won't be.


Leave it to Zag fans not to follow college basketball. Hogs play Dook next




FWIW, Dook fans are the worst, all bandwagon. At least UNC fan's follow the game and the sport.

0-2 versus the SEC this season for Gonzaga. They play in a cupcake, white boy conference. They won’t win a national title because they are an inferior product.

They don’t have any players I could root for based on how they play. Notae? Williams?


Sounds like like your typical left coast, elitist, closet racist too me. Guess we don't have enough white or light skinded players for them to root for.

I love them whining about their second leading scorer fouling out yet fail to ever mention our 2nd leading scorer fouled out first. You want to talk about bad fouls, just think if they actually called Timme for hooking!

He'd be the least effective player on the floor if he couldn't hook and spin. The hooks are why he can apparently magic balance on that pivot foot from where I'm sitting.

Gonzaga's fanbase is 90 percent bandwagon. They have a huge following in LA, mostly the same people that follow the Lakers when they're good. The bandwagoners are use to NBA defense, so when an elite and physical college team plays the Zags, they think they're mugging them the entire game and the refs let Arkansas get away with abuse.

Does not appear to be a meltdown. Credit to Arky but the officiating was crap.

Arkansas has perfected what Jack Cristil used to call the karate defense years back.

Tennessee played it to perfection back in the 1970’s.

It was effective last night but with the next officiating crew, half your team may foul out of the game before it is over with.

We will see. At least one SEC team is in the EE.

I never full understand the bitterness the fans have for teams that beat them in a one in done playoff scenario. It makes them look better if that team wins it all

They are right though. Arkansas is a boring team to watch. It's like watching an MMA fighter who wins with wrestling alone as opposed to striking.


Bitch, you talked so much shite all year long, so here’s a reminder.

Tennessee all time elite 8s: 1

Arkansas last two years elite 8s: 2

If they can't win it this year after having a bunch of highly ranked recruits along with upperclassman than they never will. Consistently get an automatic one seed and can't do anything with it.

There's a stat out there that Gonzaga is like 2-13 against 4 seeds or better since 2001. The lone wins coming against Utah and Florida State

what real conference do you suggest they join that wouldn't require a football team or 2000 mile road game commutes?
