SFA rips Peay

[Coach Obvious]

Stephen F Austin 93
Austin Peay 54

Thoughts?

[chiefsfan]

We're gonna have to play better then we did Wednesday Night to win tomorrow

SFA isnt as well known for their offense, kinda surprised they were able to score like that

We're franked.

Yeah, I've heard their D is really good. I can see them holding Peay to 54, but dropping in 93 on them? Yikes...

[jschulte]

uh oh....

[The Boar War]

Wow.  I didn't see that one coming.  They lost to A&M and Louisiana Monroe and won narrowly against Drake and North Dakota.  I wonder if something was wrongwith Austin Peay?

[alwaysondbigscreen]

hogs win, hogs win.

[yraciv]

lost to ulm 60-58!  Yeah they are good, but I still see us pulling out the win.

[kibster]

I honestly think that the hogs win going away.  SFA will be tired and hogs will be rested enough to put them away early.

Of course, that is my two cents and I have not seen SFA play. 

[Coach Obvious]

Maybe "the Peay" just had a bad night. It can happen.

[Coach Obvious]

SFA shot 67 percent from the floor. That's blistering.

They held Peay to 28 percent shooting. That's almost worse than throwing it over your shoulder with your eyes closed.

[HogTuba]

We're gonna need all the crowd we can get to beat these guys.

[JIHawg]

Same refs?

I think I will record it and decide later whether to watch it.

[Coach Obvious]

Same refs?

No, I think I saw those guys on the edge of town on a rail.

I think I will record it and decide later whether to watch it.

Well played.

[Swine & Cheese Club]

Totally different crew for this game tonight.  The crew Wed. night was: Bert Smith, Mike Stuart, Tim Clougherty

SFA point guard Eddie Williams shot 11-16 and had 25 points.  AP didn't get anything from anybody but Reed.

Should be a good game tomorrow night.  SFA played 14 people tonight but 7 logged less than 10 minutes.  Their two leading scorers played 33 and 34 minutes.  We should be able to win this one going away.

[Ripsnort]

how was the turn out  of fans?

You're not going to lose many games shooting 67%.

Pelphrey was in Jonesboro, guess he isnt worried about SFA

[Swine & Cheese Club]

BWA looked empty on the sports broadcast.

[Speedracer]

seriously??  it's college basketball, all the small teams get up to play the big teams.  Arkansas over SFA by 17.  come on, seriously.

[Coach Obvious]

On a good note, SFA's win tonight takes them up to 54 in the RPI rankings. If we beat them, we should move up some.

[Coach Obvious]

BWA looked empty on the sports broadcast.

Yeah, it was empty. Just about the only people there not on the court were ones holding brooms.

[jgphillips3]

Uh...do you guys really think them beating the Pee-ers means we are in trouble?  I'm not taking SFA lightly, but I still think we win by at least 7.  We had only played one game in 14 days going into the Austin Peay game and a little rust is to be expected.  I think we will look very focused tomorrow and they will tire a little by the end of the game.  Arkansas 75 - SFA 68.

[HawgnCorona]

have some confidence ya'll...remember its our home floor, our fans ( just yell louder) and they are playing back to back.

No worries!!

[chiefsfan]

Pelphrey was in Jonesboro, guess he isnt worried about SFA

He was out looking at the kid from Jonesboro Westside

He knows the challenge we face tomorrow, and im sure he had several assistants at tonights game

I would be shocked if we beat SFA by more then 10 points

They are really good.   They could very easily hold us to 60 points.   loss to ULM aside

Pelphrey was there in the 2nd half, didnt see him in the first. Also saw Rob Evans there. As far as players I saw Welsh, Washington, Britt, Moore, and Rotnei. There was one more but I couldnt tell who it was from a distance.

SFA looks pretty physical, they seemed to work the shot clock quite a bit. They have 1 real little dude that was fun to watch, no way he's over 5-4.

Overall they didnt look very athletic we should win but they may keep it close for a while especially if they slow the game down. #3 was on fire tonite watch for him tomorrow. Should be a good test for our post players.

[Dwight_K_Shrute]

In basketball those averages tend to even themselves out.  I'm glad that got that 67% shooting game out of their system.  This was basically an exhibition game or just like them playing pick up in their gym, no crowd at all.  You get even 12k rabid hog fans in there and it is totally different.  I hope a lot of fans turn out tomorrow night and raise hell.  That will make the difference in the game.

[RxRazorback]

If the hogs can push the ball and control the tempo then I say we win by 10+. If not, we could be in trouble. It should be a good test for a young team.

[razorbackfan4life]

It happens in high school basketball... Even the good teams get upset occasionally.  Arkansas rolls' 90-75

[Razorvet]

I wish I could make this one but my brother pulls in to Chaffee in the evening and I am gonna pick him up and take him out to blow off some steam.

[hogfooey]

I would not predict this team to beat anybody "going away" right now.  I love the improvement so far.  It will probably be another nail biter.  Once again, free throws will be vital.

[The Hogfather]

Stephen F Austin 93
Austin Peay 54

Thoughts?

We tired the crap out of Peay.  They were really up for us, we wore them down and beat them, and they were out of gas/not as pumped up.

[Tomhog™]

It will likely be another close, hard-fought game. Hopefully the Hogs prevail.

[jry04]

We're franked.

Wouldn't expect any other comment from you.


Keep in mind they have a good shooting night and were fresher than Austin Peay. Their last game was Saturday while Peay played 2 nights before. Peay was playing bad. Also, they won't have 3 days of rest like us. We should win.

[Niels Boar]

We had better play some defense, which we didn't on Wednesday.

[hawgrunner]

Pray for the Hogs!!

[blacksuit]

SFA isn't that good.
AP isn't that bad.
We're better than both. Period.

[hawgrunner]

I still always pray for a win.

[blacksuit]

I still always pray for a win.

Yeah, you and me both!

[chiefsfan]

I coulda told you coming into this tournament that Stephen F Austin would be our toughest competition

They are the toughest nonconference game on our schedule outside of Texas or OU

[dr_arkansawyer]

Woogie Boogie!  SFA shot 67%.  SFA routed Peay.  SFA eats raw hog hearts before their morning coffee.  Hogs'll get it done.

on another note, Duke is hammering Xavier lol

[jharwell]

This is what I am gonna do also

Same refs?

I think I will record it and decide later whether to watch it.

[40MINSOFHELL]
