That Florida beat UCONN. They had a bad game, and still pulled it out. I hate UCONN but I wanted them to beat Florida because I feel like we could have beaten them. I still think we will beat Texas tech, but I am NOT feeling good about our changes vs Florida... who knows though. Theiro comes back most likely in this next game, and for the first time really this year we will be 100% healthy with all of our best players, playing together, AND playing their best ball of the year. We were rates #16 pre-season. I know because of injuries, and guys just not knowing their role/eachother most people have forgotten/reimagined us as not being really talented, BUT this team ABSOLUTELY has top 15 talent at the very least IN REALITY. Probably top 10 if we get everyone's best + real consistency for once along with the young guys playing their best ball of the year on the biggest stage. now at the 11th hour suddenly it's all coming together, and geling into the team Cal envisioned he would have with these guys. We just got a win 1 game at a time though, and even though I'm extremely jaded about the hogs winning it all in most things because I'm both realistic, AND beat down from years of experience watching us snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. After all the struggles from early in the year though, AND since this was cals 1st year with a TOTALLY from the foundation up rebuilt team on the fly, this year is still a success as of now, getting an Elite 8 would cement that. Which I believe most people would have said an elite 8 was the kind of potential they believed this roster had before the season. This was probably Cal's best coaching job he has done in his career to get these guys to shake off all the struggles, and continue to buy in and gel despite the injuries & losses. Who knows though anything can happen, and with theiro back this next game with us actually fully loaded... Maybe when we actually see this team...actually be a team while playing their best ball. Maybe we will be better than I feel we are at the moment. I haven't actually seen it. None of us have actually. Here's to hoping they continue to surprise me until there are no more chances to surprise me :cheers:

Brazil literally fouled on that basket. No call, on the other end. They call Brazil. Lie more.

They are letting ST JOHN PLAY! BUT NOT ARK

These refs are in the tank for St John's so bad. It's disgusting.

Hopefully that doesn't go to Russell's head and he doesn't hit the portal at halftime

Awesome I love QBs so short they can't see over the O line!!

OMFG THAT DUDE GOT KILLED!!!!

But hey, at least he's seeing the open routes now

one of his passes he threw to ketron/warren I believe, and he was covered. if you look at the middle of the field as the ball goes through the air just before the ball gets to the receiver who doesn't catch it, you will see an ark player running wide open.

A&M was favored last year, and everyone who watched the games knew ark was about to arse blast them. use your eyes boy. stop over thinking it.

Also, serious question: In what ways is Arkansas defense better than last year

---

they are better over all at stopping the run, getting tackles for loss, and have become ELITE at pass rush.
