We really need to get separation on these pigs.
What we need is Butler, Teague, Flagler, and Thamba to stop just standing around and doing the "ole" to let the Arkansas player just walk into the bucket uncontested.

JTT is trying, but he's over extended a few times and overplayed the ball.

No one is even trying to rebound or keep them out of the paint at all, other than Vital and he's on the bench with 4...

Because playing defense is a foul tonight.


Referees should never be part of the game storyline.

Which I'd agree with if those would be touch fouls... they are letting things go on the rebounding.

It's the regular TV timeout. Drew's timeout right before kind of screwed it up.

Have never watched a game where the announcers have misidentified the teams [not for one another but for some other team] at least 50 times.

Oregon?

Arkansas Travelers?

Glad you said that, I thought I was hearing things.

Idk if anyone has said it, but outside of an extra body, what does Thamba bring to the table? Like i don't want to be mean but he is not D1 material at all.
