Wish we had won

Sure you do but you knew you would lose so it doesn't hurt like a real fan hurts after a loss.

Great run, making the elite 8 is an amazing accomplishment.

But none of us expected Arkansas to be playing for a trip to the Final 4. Great season for the Hogs. Muss has definitely turned the program around.

Which do you think was a bigger surprise? Arkansas or Alabama?

I figured we'd be competitive but the SEC success came out of nowhere.

We could have and should have beaten UCLA but we weren't going much further. Which is why I think we aren't getting the "melting" that so many people want.

It was a season that exceeded my expectations.

Probably Alabama. Had no idea what kind of team you had until you started destroying the SEC in January.

With the exception of Kentucky being down, this reminded me of when Arkansas joined the SEC. Arkansas, Alabama, LSU, and Kentucky were all pretty good.

Alabama is the much bigger surprise. Alabama are nobodies in college basketball. Arkansas has a history of winning, just underperforming lately.

Alabama comes out and wins the conference, then the tourney, then goes to OT in the Sweet Sixteen. Oats is the fricking man.
