Maybe it's just me, but getting to the dance far outweighs any conference titles


I know you realize while winning the SEC, you’ll not only make the dance but most likely as a higher seed. No one is disputing making a deep run in the dance isn’t the ultimate but winning the conference is big in its own right.

I just don’t think it is very important to you because Arkansas can’t seem to accomplish it and hasn’t in three decades.

Nope, but if it makes you feel better go with it.

As far as the arena talk goes, some of the best, rowdiest, games I've been to were at Barnhill arena which sat 9,000 fans. No one wanted to play us there.

In our down years we should have had our games there, it was a game changer.

Arkansas is the loudest SEC arena I’ve been in.

Kansas is the only place louder I’ve been. Phog Allen is probably the loudest I’ve ever heard any arena/stadium in any sport

I saw Auburn their Final Four year on senior night for Bryce Brown when Tennessee was #5. It was loud but not on Kansas or even Arkansas level.

I also saw Rupp in a College Gameday game where Tennessee came in undefeated in the SEC and ranked #1 in the country and UK was #4 and it wasn’t as loud as BWA either.

Kansas was the loudest by far, then Arkansas.

Maybe Auburn has made just a gigantic leap in the last couple years though.

This and I've been to everyone except Ole Miss' new arena.

In terms of loudness I'd go

1. Arkansas
2. Auburn
3. Tennessee

I think that’s fair. Auburn has a huge advantage with their student section setup. Tennessee and Kentucky, for example, have huge donation requirements to get those tickets around the floor on the sides.

No real way to correct it.

Where we stand in terms of loud arenas really doesn’t matter to me. Auburn arena has become an advantage for our program since Bruce arrived and that is what matters.


I was just having fun with the hawgs

Oh, sorry. I didn’t know you played in Little Rock. That’s practically a road game for you!

I don't see 20K fans. Your capacity is 19K+ and I see empty seats.

The visual was cool, but that was incredibly weak sounding. That's a giant, cavernous, open space for sound to dissipate.

Sucks y'all couldn't come up with a better design. Perks of being an engineering school for Auburn...

The fatties at Arkansas calling their ladies out

I did notice that when I went there. They must have the heaviest fanbase. There is no shortage of food in Fayetteville AR.

i was auburn back in 2017 when they unveiled sir Charles's statue. its a nice open arena , i liked that a good percentage of the crowd are students ,

that being said the loudest venue ive been at was barnhill. the 1991 unlv game was loud , but the 1979 texas game and 1979 baylor game i recall as being the loadest , i couldnt hear my own voice
