That's shades of the Duke game right there.

Ark players heel was OOB after the rebound. No call

Baylor is getting scoreboard pressure again from Arkansas. The Bears need to raise their level of play, and keep the lead as well.

Would have liked Flagler to hold up but that was a pretty easy blocking foul.

It's bc they can each take their man off the dribble. So we're playing a lot of iso ball. Which is fine if we're getting a layup. But we've missed the last few

Really not trying to see the refs **** over our Men's and Women's team all in one night

Their heads are not in this at all... to much ****ing one man dribbling, no movement and lazy ass get back on defense... recipe for a huge collapse.

Our offense has stagnated. We have to run something besides the pick and roll with them switching on defense. We are not getting good shots.

THEY'RE JUST NOT PLAYING BAYLOR BALL RIGHT NOW. I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S UP. THEY SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST 10 MORE POINT.

Why can't it be easy just one time??

Oh well....we've got too many studs not to ice this one away in the end.

Yeah you want guys to attack the rim but when the refs screw the calls they get Gun shy

Are they calling a fair game... not really... are they calling a consistent game at least... hell no.

We've just gone into a cave and went to hibernate in this game.

If they don't get their head out of their ass they are toast.

We have completely stopped passing and have regressed to 1-on-1 drives.

Other than the first 4 min of the game we've been out played the rest of the game. That 18 point lead has kept with, but Arkansas has owned this game.

Chance to go up by 13 and we barfed it. Ugh.

Those last two for Teague he set and didn't have an awkward shot and he drains them. He has a very small jump on his 3s, but almost all before those two he looked so strange on the way up, like was thinking to much of driving and shooting a two, but stopped. He looked committed to those last two.
