If the over/under was set at 25% from 3 point range for tonight what are you taking? After they couldn't miss Saturday I'm taking the under. They will get the UK rebound effect of not being able to hit a shot from 3 tonight.

It’s easy to say a team just shot lights out and it was a fluke. BUT, any team can shoot lights out when they feel no defensive pressure. Our defense is beyond bad. Wide open 3 after wide open 3. Easy drives right to the basket. Teams are confident and relaxed when they’re playing us which leads to increased shooting percentages. Hell, I can go out there and hit 5 wide open 3s against this defense. It’s absolutely pathetic.

I dont know how many Arkansas games you've watched this year, but they've been missing wide open 3s all year long. They started out better than expected from 3 but were recently in a massive shooting slump. Not to mention DJ was hitting step back 3s on Saturday. That's not to excuse the defense we've been playing recently, but Arkansas did more than just hit open 3s at Rupp.

So are you saying over, under or just hijacking a thread?

I completely agree they shot out of their ***. But ole miss also shot out of their ***. How many times does it have to happen before it’s not them, it’s us? I don’t like playing the victim card. If other teams are upping their game to play Kentucky, then Kentucky has to up their game. The problem is there are no killers on this team. They seem to be very soft mentally and physically. I just hope it’s not a reflection of our coach.

You’re always unhappy about this team. I want to win every game but this year is hard with what was left in the cupboard. You need to ease up.

25% and I’d almost bet my house they lose.

Hard pick between the 2 if Arkansas wins they will just be one game behind us if Texas wins they will take over 10th place and drop us to 11th

Arkansas is so much better without Boogie Fland. Their defense is 10x stronger now that he’s not out there. Plus Wagner is running point and Johnell is more comfortable. Arkansas could be dangerous going forward. They have a ton of talent

Even Karter Knox looks much better. He was really ineffective in some of those early games I saw

It’s like they’ve decided to play bully ball. They’re just going to physically take you out of your game on defense and then attack the basket with their athletes. Theiro, Knox, Brazile, Wagner, Johnell, Richmond. There’s not a single unathletic player on their roster

Don’t know about 3s but if the Hogs keep guarding like they did Saturday and are doing tonight they’re a tough out.

Making every dribble and pass uncomfortable for Texas just like us and that by itself will win some games. A little energy and aggression can change seasons

This is the Cal ball we are familiar with and we have not been seen since COVID

Arkansas will have good chance to be in tournament if they play like this

They have no bad loss and can grab some qualified wins, strong resume from potential bubble pool

Texas is throwing up bricks and Arky is playing solid D. Tough game to watch tbh as it’s really one sided. Certainly a tough one to listen to as all that has been talked about and featured has been the embarrassment in Rupp last Saturday.

No chance I’m watching this game to have to relive Saturday night but looking at the score, kinda wonder if it’s better for UK at this point for Arkansas to do reasonably well

I am not anti-Cal. I'm one of the ones who mostly appreciated his time in LEX and thank him for seeing it was a time for both he and the program to go through a change. That said, his team playing better with the veteran Davis only because the Frosh. Fland was injured is typical Cal luck. If Fland was healthy he'd have never made the move to favor Davis.
