Lol I don’t ever remember us getting credit when we should have beat the eventual national champs in the second round of the 2017 tournament. Coulda shoulda woulda. If you want to see the bad breaks that Arkansas fans have caught then I’ve got a catalog that offset one decent first week tournament draw.

Well that’s absurd. And thank God we brought the SEC officials with us to Buffalo.

Good point. We played a legit Vermont team on the fricking Canadian border and everyone wants to act like we were gifted the first weekend. We had the worst 4/13 draw in the tournament. NMSU admittedly sucked. Not sure how the hell they beat UCONN. We should have won that game by 40.

Only reason Arky did was they got lucky and drew 2 double digit seeds. Barely squeaked by both.


Ha. The rest of the SEC got bounced by double digit seeds.

Actually it is surprising. The SEC won the Big 12 challenge besting both Kansas and Baylor who were both 1 seeds. Bama also beat Gonzaga another 1 seed. The SEC had a good ooc resume’ overal


Well said. While I didn't expect an all SEC Final 4, getting only one team (regardless of how we played) in the Sweet 16 is shocking.

I had KY winning it all and Auburn in Final 4... and not Arkansas.

I just don’t get this. Did you get to watch the UK/Arkansas game? Jimmy Dykes was talking about how they were final four bound as well and they couldn’t throw the ball in the ocean.

UK and UT were big surprises to me. Auburn were frauds the minute they almost lost to Mizzou.

Let’s be real. Arkansas wasn’t THAT good, they spotted everyone three games and still almost won the conference. That should have tipped people off.

Our defense made them look bad. Toney basically shut down their guy who scored 37 points against UConn. Notae had 8 steals. I think playing so hard defensively got to our player’s legs which lead to missed shots.

It wasn’t pretty but Muss schemed to win the game not win a beauty contest.

We have a good team, not near great, and coaching is the main reason we’ve gotten this far. Great job Muss, Go Hogs!
