While I've been disappointed with losses, hindsight is a different story.

Florida.... best team in the conference.

MSU... we never do well there.

Auburn..... top 20 team now, and it was a road game.

Still a head scratcher against LSU

Houston.... they just beat #7. Solid team.

RPI was still 25 before before yesterday. Hopefully we can beat the 8-4 prediction by some, win a couple at least in the trny and get a good seed.
I'm only responsible for what I say, not how you perceive it.

How do you expect to win in March madness, when you can win on the road in conference?
Have faith...

There are more than 3 conference road games.

If you have to justify every loss under Mike Anderson, that should tell you something about the job he's doing.

Not beating some teams they should beat. Getting destroyed by the other teams they shouldn't beat. Yeah, wonderful.

Right, but all teams in March are good. Those games we lost weren't games you could say, well we played good enough to win..

I'm sorry but the talent we have, there's no reason to be getting blown out

If we play well to end the season and make up for it, it doesn't matter.

The March Madness games are road games for both teams. Well except for North Carolina. They usually play so close to home that it should be considered a home game.

Meaning our 2nd round game will be a road game.

It's really cute how you already have us in the NCAA tourny. It's ok to be a hog fan and be realistic. We had to shoot nearly 70% from 3 pt range to barely beat a mediocre Ole Miss. I just don't see it.

Coulda survived with a worse % had we played better defense.

I hear ya HoggyCat, but Arkansas basketball should always be a top 20 team, and never take the position it's okay to lose to the likes of Auburn. 

RPI is dropping and is now 32.

FWIW...
The 94-95 National Runner-up team lost to Ole Miss, Auburn, & Miss. State on the road and Bama at home.
The 93-94 National Championship team lost at Miss. St. & Bama.

But I agree. We should be a consistent Top 25 Program.

RPI 29 as of right now, no power 5 team had ever missed the tourney under 40 RPI
