Am I the only one watching Arkansas

absolutely blowing #19 Michigan out of the gym? Didn't they lose in Oxford last week? The more college basketball I watch, the less I understand.

Maybe SEC basketball is greatly improved over the last few seasons? Using the rising tide raises all boats theory, maybe Stans can win an NIT championship and retire a winner at the end of this season?

OM plays UGA today and I'm hoping they do to them what they did to us. We have to continue to focus on winning the games we need to win and MAYBE... just MAYBE can pull out a win today... and if we do, we aren't going to be as bad off.

For the most part, you can consider a home team and a road team two entirely different teams. Arkansas is always, ALWAYS TOUGH at home. That's why the State 2004 team was so special...it is INCREDIBLY hard to win college basketball games on the road. There are really only 5-8 teams in the country that can consistently go on the road and win.

This is why the rpi weights home/rd wins like they do. Home win = 0.6 win. Road win = 1.4 win.

I don't want either to become bad losses... so as long as they can stay in the top 100 in the RPI, I'm cool with that.

year. It is going to be tough. I think we finish 10 - 6 or 9 - 7 and get anywhere from a 5 - 9 seed in NCAA tournament. I also think we are going to be a different team by tournament time in a good way.<div id="isChromeWebToolbarDiv" style="display:none"></div>
