Good practice for uh. Longer guards that really hammer you on the drives. The officiating has been insanely bad.

Flagler gets fouled twice on that play and the refs choke on the whistle... a body foul and a reach.

Arkansas' strategy is odd here. Look like they've given up but then foul after 10-12 seconds
