Even without Brazile, Arkansas has a ton of talent. Surprised they went 8-10 in SEC with some questionable losses (LSU, Miss St., Auburn), but they've always been a team that had the goods to make a run.

They have several promising freshmen but only Udeh played much. Self started working them in. Roberts has been terrible in this game. Yesufu is a transfer from Drake who can really shoot and should have played more. They win this with Self on the bench.
Well at least you don't have mixed loyalties in the next game.

If Gonzaga is the one highly regarded team we must beat to get to the final 4. That’s a perfect scenario. We got a bit screwed with a 4 in the west but it’s worked out better than we could ever hope for.

Bill self on the sideline is worth at least 2 pts.

Ark can’t hit 3s = zone D

We're still in a tough region. Kansas is the first higher seed to lose in the West bracket.

Now if Gonzaga and UCLA can get knocked off too.....

If your last name is Dick, don't name your kid something that sounds like Gravy.

If that were my last name, I'd name my kid Maximillian.
Jack would be a bad choice too. Max is a solid choice.

Idk. Iona, st Mary, Arkansas is a favorable path to an elite 8. We wouldn’t have to play a higher seed until then.

@August_West .. Ok .. Not going to wait.. With Kansas goin' down and Few or little Mick as E8 opponent.. Raising my prediction from 28 wins as the bottom to NC.. Drinks are on me if I'm wrong
I would’ve rather played kansas than Arkansas. But St Mary’s may be better than both, so nothing but tomorrow is on my mind.

Drinks are on you either way :)

I like this for next weekend but am now more worried for our focus tomorrow.

Maybe that's just cause I'm starting to think ahead.

Let's be honest, Houston probably would've had 8-10 losses if they played in a Power 5 or BE. Very good team, but definitely overrated because of the lack of competition in the AAC.

must suck for mid major leagues like the big east that the sec schools, who don't even care about basketball, just decided a few years ago they wanted to be good and now they pretty much dominate a lot of the ncaa tournament.

St Mary's is a well coached team.. Don't make a lot of mistakes but they can't match our athleticism and speed.. They can't hang with our A game.
