2025-2026 Razorback Basketball

[Doc Hogaday]

No kidding.

[Hognrock]

I hope Acuff goes to a better city and organization than the Memphis.

I don't disagree. I'm being selfish

[Spiderham]

I hope he falls down a bit and Boston takes him.  He would be deadly with their open floor game and shooters when Tatum makes it back.  They use several guys at PG (Pritchard, White, and Holiday), which means they really don't have one.  All of those guys are really more spot-up shooters and slashers.

All these pages trying desperately to make KY look good, but the comments are having none of it.

We need to whip their asses today. No quarter.

I believe you are going to the game, do I need to start the game thread or will you do it?

[Pig Benis]

Whatever you prefer. I don't mind being the jinx.

[Hognrock]

If you start it please include a lot of derogatory comments about KY and Ashley Judd.

We have fallen to #21 this week.  Gaming out the rest of our season.  22-9, 12-6 heading into the SEC Tournament seems plausible.  But maybe too optimistic.  If we go on the negative side of predictions, two more losses than I say (maybe @Miss St and Texas A&M at home) are possible.  The other direction, even the most rosy outlook wouldn't give us any more than 1/3 at Bama, Florida, and Mizzou.  So ceiling of 23-8, 13-5 and floor of 20-11, 10-8.

Taking the middle road:

@Miss St - W
@LSU - W
Auburn - W
@Alabama - L
Missouri - W
Texas A&M - W
@Florida - L
Texas - W
@Missouri - L

I see things similarly, although I might switch out a loss in Starkvegas and a win north of the Mason-Dixon Line.  Our best teams have lost at MSU. 

[Cardiac Hog]

Heard on radio, so don't know if it's true-
  Cal has never lost at Starkville
  Hogs haven't won there since 2015 (Muss never won there). 

[Doc Hogaday]

If I counted right on Hogstats, we're 6-22 at Starkville since joining the SEC.

[BASS]

Driving to the arena is so depressing it sucks the life out of the team.

If anyone is wondering, this is the much more difficult to pull off modern day Japanese-American Haiku with a form consisting of three unrhymed lines with a 11, 8, 15 syllable structure.

Holiday was traded to the Blazers for Anfernee Simons last offseason. Simons was traded to the Bulls today for Vucevic.

That's really something. Starkville and that ref from the other night are basically our kryptonite.  

[Show-Me Hog]

I just figure having a semi-talented team when they decide to play, a week off to get our heads right, Mississippi State being bad, and a coach who doesn't lose there, might just do the trick this week.

[Barton Fink]

We played a game there under MA where the FT differential was like 43-10. Macon hit a side step 3 that put us up was was wrongfully called for a travel. Seems a lot of our losses there were due to getting screwed. 

[Pig Benis]

After the last 3 games I don't "expect" any game to be a win. We generally stink on the road and come out flat everywhere. Hopefully we get it cleaned up. The horrible starts are inexplicable.

[BASS]

Well said pb
