Gritty win

[ShadowHawg]

This team is tough minded. 2 road wins in a row, 4 wins in a row and they seem to be getting stronger. I thought they were done after the two blowout road losses.

Woo Pig Sooie!

Great win.....love the fight in this team.

The one thing about MA and the system we run, it's geared to be strong at the end of the season.  No question we have lost games we shouldn't have, and been in many games we had no business hanging around.  If they keep playing the way they are, anything is possible.

The zebras wanted to give it to Bama but we prevailed!

I too thought that the officiating was a little one sided, in favor of Bama.
It was a tough win and it was on the road.
Great game, guys!!!

If the meltdown in Mississippi would have never happened, CMA could rub this year in most of our faces.

That, or if we could have finished strong and held on for a couple of the games we should have won (Stanford, Auburn, etc), we'd be sitting at 18-12 right now. If Moses stays, which I think he will, we could be pretty good next year.

It's all part of the roller coaster that I call Arkansas Basketball...up....down....up...down.  I'll take some consistency for $1000 Alex.  Sitting at 16-14, with 3 really suspect losses (could be 19-11 right now), we should be on the bubble.

I guess that I should feel good about the win at Bama, but for some reason, I'm starting to feel that we underachieved.

like some of us said as those losses happened....inexperience hurt us. Some are trying to point to defense only or coaching decisions and while our D hasn't been good, those very winnable games we lost were close right up until the end where we maybe turned it over, missed a free throw, got blocked, they made a big shot, a BS whistle was blown, an in bounds play resulted in a jump ball, etc,... In other words-- our inexperience as a whole cost us and even with that inexperience, we still were one or two little things -- sometimes flukie things -- away from a very successful season.  It happens in sports. And you can't dwell on it but work to improve the areas. We've had a lot to work on and it sure looks like we've made improvements.

It oughta make some look a little closer at the future and think, wait a minute -- we may well be pretty dang good and soon.

I don't think that derailed the season for the fans as much as the Auburn debacle. I lost faith after Auburn
