Pig Benis may be frozen somewhere. I hope I don't screw us up.
Fuck LSU
Our Net rankings really need this one
Wut have you done?
And the game is going to start on time. This doesn't feel right at all.
How's the crowd?
Impressive looking crowd.
Can we not suck? Kthxbai
Too many put backs
Station?
Interior defense has been suspect
Sec Network. Finally. Tied at 18
Thomas to Ewin inject that into my veins
#1 for LSU a very large, scary man.
Once again we make the other team's white guy an all star

Alive and well, thankfully. Just dropped the ball in the midst of the chaos. Thanks for picking up the slack :beer:
Bullshit call.
We look like ass. I'll show myself back out.

Stop sucking please

If we lose this, Benis should be banned and/or sodomized.
We cannot make a layup :suicide:
Brazile needs to sit. Sick of his loafing.
Layup and 4 put-back attempts all miss lol
Damn we're missing a lot of FT's
Refs need to make up their mind on how they're calling it down low. Especially on rebounds. That last call on Knox is nothing compared to what's been allowed throughout the game.
We seem very low energy today.
We'd be down 15+ if we played like this on the road. Poor effort so far. Hopefully we blow their doors off in the 2nd half.

Glad to hear sir. Apparently I suck doing game threads based on our performance so far.
Snow-stormitis. It almost seems like we didn't really believe we were going to have to play a game today. Time to pick it up.

Do I get to choose?
We're getting killed on the glass and missing point blank layups. Both easily fixable in the second half.
LSU sucks right?
This team seems to lack leadership and maturity hence the inconsistency.
This team fucking stinks. $10mm NIL budget. No effort.
Play by play guy needs to start smoking camels or someth8ng to lose the high whiney voice, hard to listen to.
It wasn't RickB on the tv, but a woopigger's kid.IMG_1164.jpeg She's a lot better looking than him too.
We are as good as we want to be. We don't always want to be good. Worrisome.

He just said "What a fun game at Bud Walton". What in the world? Not fun at all.
Good for us, but I didn't know they could overturn a common foul on review.
I didn't think you could overturn from a common foul one way to a common foul the other way. I thought the only thing you could be looking for was a flagrant or a hook and hold.

I think the other guy smoked the whole pack.
Quote from: Borenutz on Jan 24, 2026, 05:23 PMI think the other guy smoked the whole pack.
The "other guy" is Joe Kleine!
What in the world is wrong with Brazile tonight.
Before I die, I would one time like to see a Razorback team run a set play that involves screens.
Quote from: Borenutz on Jan 24, 2026, 05:23 PMI think the other guy smoked the whole pack.
That is former Razorback Joe Kleine.
Quote from: Borenutz on Jan 24, 2026, 05:23 PMI think the other guy smoked the whole pack.
Joe Kleine.
I don't think the white guy touched Billy at all but we'll take it.
#1 for LSU just committed more fouls in one play than is allowed in a full game.

in defense of Brazile, they've all been missing at the rim today.
I walked away at halftime and just sat back down from shoveling snow for the last 30 minutes.
Trying to undo the PB jinx.
We don't play very good defense
Quote from: Hogfan58 on Jan 24, 2026, 05:28 PMWe don't play very good defense
We do when we want to, that's the problem.
Quote from: Hognrock on Jan 24, 2026, 05:29 PMWe do when we want to, that's the problem.
Correct
Acuff won't let us lose.
Why don't these guys try and dunk all these? Go up and get the basket or break the defender's hand.
We also miss a ton of shots under the basket
Whatever they're doing defensively is really bothering us.
5-13 from the line
Billy's right hand busted
5 out of 13 from the line will lose a lot of games
We absolutely cannot stop their point guard from getting in the lane. Every single time.
Quote from: Pig Benis on Jan 24, 2026, 05:04 PMDo I get to choose?
We've already logged your vote.
Acuff is amazing. What a pleasure to see him in a hog jersey.
Acuff, damn!
Acuff just took it lol
That sequence has to be an ESPN Top Ten play.
They're killing us at the line. 14-16
Acuff is going down as one of our best ever.
We know the game is in Northwest Arkansas not that anyone cares, but since Arkansas is the home team we understand the game would be in Arkansas.
judas. who gives a frick where the game is muchless telling us every 2 minutes.
It's fantastic that we have Acuff, but him trying to keep up with the other team one on five like the last 5 minutes is just not a recipe for a winning game.
I like Joe Kleine.
Great play
Someone done pissed him off
As impressive as Acuff is, the defense is equally as dogshitty
Quote from: Too Big Pig on Jan 24, 2026, 05:48 PMAcuff is going down as one of our best ever.
Definitely.
At this rate I hope Acuff still has gas in the tank in March
Acuff needs the ball in his hands every possession from here on out.
Play some fucking defense
LSU's Thomas is almost as good as Acuff. They run through him every single time. They said he's been out? Certainly a completely different team with him.
Huge!
Brazile!
TB!
I cannot believe Brazile hit that 3. LSU probably can't either.
Quote from: Show-Me Hog on Jan 24, 2026, 06:02 PMLSU's Thomas is almost as good as Acuff. They run through him every single time. They said he's been out? Certainly a completely different team with him.
He's been out awhile. Good player. Was at UNLV
Damn
He makes all those shots and misses 2 FT???
Bizarre game
At least we got one
They almost can't miss free throws.
We can't make half of them.
Weird game.
What is Joe whining about?
Never doubted us
That's a winner!
As the old sage Dom Toretto used to say: "whether you win by an inch or a mile, winning's winning."
Lucky.
A rickety ride is better than a smooth walk.
What a snow day treat that was. As good of a freshmen performance as I can remember. Loved how TB hit the shot and just turned away like it was just a routine 3.
Whew!
Thats a game we have historically pissed away.
This is a special team. Acuff is more than special. He is generational.
Again, we are as good as we want to be.
10/22 on FT has to be a historically bad performance. They were 22/25. Regress both of those toward normal percentages and this is a boring unremarkable win.

See ya Tuesday at 6. Write it on your forehead.
LSU getting Thomas back makes them a different team. They'll clip some folks. Glad it wasn't us.
Acuff is one of the best players to ever wear the jersey. Thomas is right behind him.
But the key to how good we will be is our front court, and Knox. Coming into the season Oweh and Knox were considered neck and neck.
Pringle, Ewin and Brazile are going to have to get better defensively. Our problems are biting on every head fake and defensive position. It's been a problem all year giving guys a lane, inexplicably we just do the ole' and don't play in front. Those habits have to get cleaned up.

I'm amazed teams aren't just jumping into our bigs when they bite on every ball fake three.

If they haven't cleaned them up by now, I don't think they're gonna get cleaned up. Is what it is, probably.
Quote from: Sus-Scrofa on Jan 24, 2026, 06:29 PMI'm amazed teams aren't just jumping into our bigs when they bite on every ball fake three.
Agree. I've never seen a team worse against the ball fake. Knox and the bigs fall for it every time.
Pringle gets heat about his hands, but his footwork is just as awful. He's reactive all the time, especially on the defensive glass. Worst ball instincts I've seen.
I agree that this might be one area where you can't coach it out. It's due to not being in position in the first place, and having to "catch up".
Basketball is so much instinct, which you either have or don't.
We got outrebounded today by 8. Usually that's a guaranteed loss for us. Today Acuff heroics bailed us out.
Crowd was more than impressive for the conditions. First game we've been to in a few years. Thanks Gorillawarfare, I appreciate you. Had a great time with our son and his girlfriend. Besides a couple of LSU fans behind their bench, only saw two others the whole time.
Also, Jon Williams still sucks so bad.

Were they allowing admission without a ticket or any general admission seating?
Something about us seemed a step slow all day. They got a lot of bounces that just seemed to go right to them. Our FTs and rebounding didn't happen today. Happy for the W. FT practice will be happening.
Quote from: TC on Jan 24, 2026, 06:23 PMSee ya Tuesday at 6. Write it on your forehead.
Done. I'll actually be in attendance next Saturday for teh wooping flogging if necessary.
Well done, Hognrock.
I've said it before but it's a shame we don't have Acuff for more than 1 year. I long for the days when they had to stay 3 years. He's a generational talent.
Pig Benis better get his ass back to game thread duty because that was a nailbiter.
We were there and I was shocked at the crowd. Didn't think we would have near that many people there.
It was a good win. But shooting something like 33% from the foul line and getting out rebounded is not a recipe for long term success.
Acuff looked like he could score any time he wanted to. Brazile made the one big 3, but we need more points from him to win in the long run. Not sure Cal shouldn't run a few plays for him early in the game to get his shot going.

LSU has only lost 2 games with Thomas in their lineup. He missed a lot of time with an injury.
Quote from: DirkPiggler on Jan 24, 2026, 08:07 PMCrowd looked great on TV. I assume people from the upper deck moved down?
People were in the upper deck as well. There was easily 14-15k in the building.

You had to have a ticket to get in.

Agreed. Need TB engaged from the jump. It's like he's engaged for 2 games in a row, then the next game he looks like he would rather be anywhere but at the game he's playing in.
cal said about 15k. he liked that there were a lot of students in the high dollar seats.
Quote from: vegashog on Jan 25, 2026, 10:06 AMcal said about 15k. he liked that there were a lot of students in the high dollar seats.
They should do something like that every game.
Make every season ticket holder opt in (either commit to going themselves or having them sold) by 24 hours before tip off. If the tickets go unused, offer them for free to students.

This might actually work. My first thought was how would you police it? You could take away priority points for each game tickets go unused.
With the way tickets are transferred now, you can buy tickets on seatgeek right before the game starts. For way less than admission price. We don't wait that late since we're driving up, but if I lived up there.

I imagine there's a whole lot of ticket holders not paying attention to any kind of announcements, plus a whole nother set who are still trying to get them to friends, family, or woopiggers under the 24 hour window.
I'm sure it's been said here already...
But of all of the amazing things Acuff does I might be most impressed with his ability to take a game we're getting roughed up in and strap the team on his back and carry us to victory
It's happened over and over this year
Just incredible for a freshman
Great crowd, those of you that went should be damn proud of it. Hell of a show for our fanbase.

He ain't no ky madden.
We possibly won't win a championship with Cal(I wouldn't bet against it), but just getting to cheer for this much elite talent is worth it even if we don't.
By the way, LSU still hasn't made it home yet. Or at least not all of them. There is an LSU bus in the ditch on some backroad in Polk County around Mena somewhere because the dummy driving followed bad GPS directions.
