Razorback head coach John Calipari is 6-6 all-time when playing the AP #1 team, including an 0-2 record in road games. He is 1-0 when playing #1 at home and 5-4 when playing #1 on neutral courts. Overall, Cal's teams are 115-102 when playing AP top-25 teams.
Start time 8 PM central (aka past the bedtime of the elderly like me)
I figured I'd take one for the team here since nobody wants to hurt their win/loss game thread record.
The game where we finally bleed out.
Tonight we become warriors...
As we lay on the court and have a good bleed.
Aubie by 30.
I hope saying aubie bugs their fans as much as arky does me.
This team seems to play better on the road except for when the don't.
That's my pre-game analysis. Good luck yaw.
We win comfortably by 8
All part of the basketball gods' master plan to kick us in the balls when we play a winless South Carolina on March 1.
I took the over which means it will be a 65-62 type game, or not.

We're on the main ESPN while Alabama-Mizzou, which promises to be a much better game, is on SECN.
Let the bed shitting commence!!
We gon' win!
We sure need one of those streaky shooters that goes off for 35 points and not 35 turnovers.
Oh and FUCK THESE REFS!!!!

The MIZ/BAMA line stinks. Bama +1.5? Sure, give me all of that.
Put up or shut up time for Cal.
He's always come across to me as a great car salesman with cars with flood damage. They may look good at first but are going to leave you stranded.
Just win, baby.
Hate these 8pm games

I'd be curious of what the record is of a top 20 team coming off a loss is, spread wise. Ky was easy money tonight. Also took Bama
Why are they still calling fouls in this NC game?
We're currently tied with the best team in the country
Alyssa Lang looks like Joan Rivers reincarnated
Snowed in today and watched espn news for the first time in forever. One of the headlines was Cal vs Auburn. lol, but I think they do like having some cal drama.
Come on, we need a better offense than 3's and fast breaks
That was an awesome pass
I think we will play well. Big game
Under 15 and zero fouls called?!?
They're daring us to shoot the three
Maybe Auburn should shoot more threes, they might score 100
Quote from: BASS on Feb 19, 2025, 08:15 PMMaybe Auburn should shoot more threes, they might score 100
That is all they should shoot the way they are draining them.
How was there no foul on that crazy thiero layup?
We're playing well and differently on offense.
But they can shoot the fucking basketball.
Under 12 for the first TO was weird. Do we get another one at the next whistle?
We won't win another game all year
I like the way we're playing.
Wish Big Z's 3 would've gone down. We're getting good looks
Fuck Auburn btw
Doug Shows is an attention whore with a whistle
Jay Williams should stay on the set

Weak call on Auburn. Let them play. Probably cost us an easy basket.... wait.
Second half they'll call everything
Quote from: BASS on Feb 19, 2025, 08:26 PMWhat a fucking block

That was awesome.
And I have no idea what he was doing after that. Davis was right there.
Boom shakalaka
Davis to Richmond highlight
That might be worst ft form I've ever seen
Brazile does less than any basketball player I have ever seen.
He's like a baseball player you play in right field and bat 9th. He's just....out there.
Can we get some more defensive rebounds?
Quote from: BASS on Feb 19, 2025, 08:34 PMCan we get some more defensive rebounds?
No.
Something is up with that floor. We've slipped 5 times.

You don't get to 34% by accident.
They have us setting up way too far from the basket.
Roll with it baby... Nevermind
0-4 at the line
Those free throws were ugly. Line drives right into the front of the rim.
Hate missing those fts
Kids my ass ref, he deserved to be taunted
Big Z keeping it real
We are fucking idiots
Oh,well. Good night.
Z with an 0-fer then a T.

ATM was walking ( pivot foot stuff) all day long and they didn't call a one. I figured they just quit calling that. And we got called for a double dribble in that game. lol
Damn Ivisic
Keep shooting threes Auburn
Stop shooting threes Arkansas
Has turned out to be a pretty ugly first half for both teams, it started well enough.
They might chant airball for the rest of the half
Dumbass
Staying in it...
Love that line about we're letting them stay in the game with us
The stare down of Calipari on the previous trip could also have been a T. Both were Ts under the Z standard.
Quote from: Thin Red Swine on Feb 19, 2025, 08:25 PMTheir mascot is named Aubie. So, no it doesn't.
I embrace Arky! Big deal
Terrible half of basketball on both sides. Throwback to the whole UA/AU football game last year.
How tf is Brazile to Aidoo to Brazile your end of the half deal w/ 5 seconds left coming out of the technical? You have plenty of time to do something.
We have created some and they have made plenty of their own unforced mistakes. We can't seem to capitalize.
Makes me want to scream.
Somebody needs to take out Clownshow Bob's knees. Fuck that guy
It's Sides... Forget it he's on a roll
Wow
Well Brazile made a basket
Big Z needs to take a seat.
Brazile and Z killed our momentum.
Fuck
Get Brazil out of there.
Bad night for Z to have his worst offensive night in, well, forever. You can't get worse than 0 fer.
Quote from: BASS on Feb 19, 2025, 09:06 PMIt's Sides... Forget it he's on a roll
Yeah, my bad. Fucking shit Brazile. Big Z needs that needle that makes you hit a shot.
QUIT THROWING THE BALL INTO FUCKING TRAFFIC
Brazile has the worst effort and is the biggest dumbfuck in the SEC.
He didn't even try to defend on that break.
Whatever is possessing these refs to not call every fucking anticipation foul, I wish they would keep it up. I've never seen that and1 not called in our games.
We had to have Z tonight, just not be horrible offensively, to win.
This team just can't put it all together.
Can't miss them all Z
If we shoot close to our season % from 3pt we are ahead. Maybe we get hot late. Not to mention ft's
Quote from: Barton Fink on Feb 19, 2025, 09:29 PMCan't miss them all Z
He's gonna hit the game winner.
He's had several down & out. Just a couple down has us tied up.
Also rebounding by the team in general would help.
Did we come back from commercial just for 10 seconds of play before more commercials?
Quote from: buff2.0 on Feb 19, 2025, 09:33 PMDid we come back from commercial just for 10 seconds of play before more commercials?
They took two consecutive TV timeouts under 12.
I is confused.
Did they miss the under 16? I think they did in the first half.
Quote from: Cornhogio on Feb 19, 2025, 09:35 PMDid they miss the under 16? I think they did in the first half.
There wasn't a dead ball between 16 & 12 in the first half. Very rare for an SEC much less Doug Shows game.
Outhustled again
Night night
Ballgame
Have the ball down 4 and two consecutive turnovers for easy buckets. Oh well.
Run the offense through Richmond
We've got about two minutes to right the ship here
Man we've had our chances tonight.

Auburn is also way below their season average.
Bunch of chokers. That's what they are.
17-18 win team. Guard play isn't good enough to do anything at the present moment in the tournament, if we do sneak in.
Meh season.
"A must have for the Razorbacks."
The #1 team on the road? It's the exact opposite of a must have. It would be a great unexpected steal if we get it.
What the fuck was that foul call?
On the ground d for starters. Second, he fucking pushed off with the shoulder and for arm.
Nice response by Wagner.
Guess the fouls got too one side favoring the hogs. Now the refs are calling anything.
Quote from: BleedinRed on Feb 19, 2025, 09:48 PMWhat the fuck was that foul call?
No shit. Whistle. Another move then the shot. That was atrocious.
The worst hook I've ever seen
Our guys can't buy a foul at the basket
Theiro was fouled on the dunk by the way. No call.
Auburn gets away with a lot of offensive fouls
Brazile has contributed nothing tonight.
Put Brazile in and foul thier horrible free throw shooter every time he touches it
Nelly!
2 point game. Can we get over the hump.
Hack that fool brazile
That's the best play Davis has made all year.
Don't like that call but I'll take it.
Ha! Someone else fell for it!
Then he misses the fucking freethrows.
4/10 on free throws could be a killer for us
That was a foul. Their guy jumped all the way to Davis with his arm extended over Davis, not vertical.
Have a chance to tie it.
I don't get Broom as the player of the year.
NBA bench player at best.
I'll say this, this team has some fight.
Quote from: Show-Me Hog on Feb 19, 2025, 09:54 PMThat was a foul. Their guy jumped all the way to Davis with his arm extended over Davis, not vertical.
correct
I'd sure like to win this
This game, like the Aggy game, is just begging us to win it. It's right there.
Do we have the balls to close? Or do we choke again?
Come on Hogs! Take it!
Hey we were number two!?!?!
Make your fucking free throws
Nelly showing up tonight.
lol we are in the lead
Getting interdasting.
Shit
We briefly got over the hump. But the hump regrew.
Cal chewing Zs ass.
Big Zzzzzzzs on defensive glass there.
Give it up z...
Should be driving to the basket, but nooooooo
Another bullshit foul.

What do you think?
Z lost this game tonight. He was turbl on both ends of the court.
Basket good. Apply the same logic ref.
If their guy gets the and-1 earlier that's definitely an and-1 for Thiero.
My favorite player to hate in the SEC is this Baker Mazar guy.
Retarded
Unbelievable.
Nice play brazile, knock it out of your own guys hand
Brazile. Omfg
Why did Cal put fucking worthless stupid Brazile in?
Cal made a tremendous mistake.
Brazile responsible for that and the own goal. Auburn having 61 points right now sure would be huge.

We are stupid. Thiero is stupid fouling their clutch shooter.
Fuck these dumbasses including Cal putting in that retard.
Wow.
Played about as dumb as possible after getting the lead back
Why yes, he can miss all of them.
It's unbelievable we are remotely close in this game. Auburn was sleepwalking .
At least the season is almost over.
Horrible finish. Ivisic can't scratch iron.
Gave it away
Fuck this
I don't want to be mad about a road loss against #1, but we are simply too fucking stupid to win games like this. Z can be taken out back and shot for all I care, especially after installing the final nail in our coffin with one more airball. Make Brazile watch before it's his turn.
Ivisic, Aidoo and Brazile did they go scoreless? I think they did I'm not checking.
Fuck them.
Big Zilch.
Make him change his jersey number.
FTs and Z.
Dammit, that was winnable and should have been won.
Davis seems tentative to take over in the final 2 minutes. Drive to rim.
Big Z has played great over the last 5 games. I'll give him a pass on having a shitty game.

On the road..shot abysmally from 3, missed 146 free throws, gave up a ton of defensive rebounds, against the #1 team in the country..on the road.
Change just 1 of those things and we win.
This team will make the tournament.
16% from 3, 50% at the line. 35% from three and 65% from the line and we win easy.

All 3 did.
Brazile was 0-0 shooting with one TO. ESPN doesn't even show him getting a rebound. Aidoo at least had 2 rebounds and a steal.
Z though, that dude reverted back to worthless soft tall white boy. 0-10 shooting, and 9 of those were missed threes. 8 rebounds, 2 steals, and 3 blocks, but also 3 turnovers.
Their 2nd and 3rd scorers came off the bench. Richmond's 8 points was our only bench contribution. Thiero, Knox, Davis, and Wagner were solid.

Brazile actually had -2. He scored 2 for Auburn.
Z looked exhausted. You don't come up short every shot without being sick or having no legs, or both. Maybe whatever illness Thiero has is making its way around the team.
Quote from: BleedinRed on Feb 19, 2025, 10:16 PMPost of the game. Great job.
Dang. We ended the game 7-14 on free throws, in a 7-point loss. Auburn was 13-17. Surprisingly close-called game.

I didn't know anything about him coming into the season, but the way he was described sounded like someone other teams would fear. Turns out he strikes fear in his own fan base.
All of what y'all have already said.
Caught the last 2 teams we've played having subpar retard games like we normally have and somehow we still out-retard them and don't capitalize. It's like we can get close, tie it up, maybe even take a 1-point lead...then "eww gross" let's fall back in line.
It's maddening.
Quote from: pigtacular on Feb 19, 2025, 10:21 PMI didn't know anything about him coming into the season, but the way he was described sounded like someone other teams would fear. Turns out he strikes fear in his own fan base.
He was first or second team all SEC. He had some games last year where he disappeared but nothing like what he's done this year. He scored double figures in just about every game last year with a handful of double doubles.
Let's talk about Cal.
Cal needs to get the careless turnovers that we commit every single fucking game under control.
It's his job. I was glad to see him eat Z's goofy ass tonight. That's the first time I've seen it.
Oh and our players control. Knox shoving a guy. Z taunting getting a T. Enough. You're the coach, fucking fix it.
And him putting Brazier in late? What the fuck for Cal? You need him to score for Auburn, give up an easy basket or knock the rebound out of our guys hand? He's going to do something dumb. I can see it. Why can't you?
None of our shitbird media will ask him tough questions but I want some answers on the bullshit.

If we have 5 guys in when the game is on the line, and one of them is not Brazile, you are doing your job.
I hate to spout the old white man line, but 50% from the FT line? WTF?
Brazile is a massive head case. He looked earlier in the season like he might be buying in with the "does the little things" kind of bit, but then he went to shit about the time Z started producing more minutes. Brazile's defense has always been terrible and I think all things being equal Cal decided to play the younger guy that's a better offensive player. Brazile can't stay engaged unless he's getting starter minutes it seems. Aidookie idk...he's just been a disappoint. If healthy from the beginning and remaining healthy this team probably is sitting closer to 19 wins right now but he put too many eggs in the wrong basket. I bet we have a fuller roster next season.

Lately the only thing Brazile has done well has been rebounding, and he cost us more than he contributed last night when you take into account that he scored two points for Auburn on a tip in and knocked a ball out of bounds out of Richmond's hands in a key spot.
My wife asked last night when (he) Brazile would be out of eligibility. When Mrs Hognrock is on your ass it's not a good thing. Believe me, I know first hand.
Cal's next meeting with Brazile.

He also had a bad turnover that led to a breakaway, so he essentially silver plattered them 6 points.
