This lineup must have been cut and pasted from an early season one. Legion has transferred and Meeks is probably out due to injury. Good luck today!

What are they saying about the game in Lexington?  Are you guys expecting to play well trying to make the tournament or has the team quit on this goal?  Just curious about the teams attitude right now.

Thanks

[jbcarol]

CBCG has not been strong on providing the starting lineup to the press in advance.

Jodie Meeks is still listed as questionable for today.  He had limited practice tmie on Friday.  I do not expect him to start.

Kentucky will likely start Patterson, Bradley, Crawford, Mark Coury (walk-on soph. PF from Detroit Country Day who will see limited action) and Ramon Harris at the "3".

Expect Perry and Derrick to make quick entry into the game (Jasper may start) and Meeks to play if he is ready to go.

UK has won seven of their last eight SEC games starting with the win over Tennessee.  The loss to Vandy is noteworthy due to the margin.  UK won a double OT game vs. Vandy earlier.  UK is 8-3 and second in the SEC-E coming into today.  They are winning close games consistently and have great FT %'s among their Big 3 players.  Bradley leads the SEC in FT %.

CBCG preaches play 'em one-at-a-time.

[Dwight_K_Shrute]

I've got to be on the road for part of the game.  What's the best station to listen to the game in the Fort Smith area.  Thanks

[HogsGoneWild]

Hubert takes Arkansas and doesn't even think twice about it. Digger and Bilas take Kentucky cause they are at home.

[jbcarol]

Who will we get today?  Nantz and Packer?  Another PBP and Packer?  Gus Johnson and Clark Kellogg or Len Elmore?  Ian Eagle and Jim Spanarkel?

[Arkiebrian]

I have to go to a freaking birthday party during the game.

Postponed from last weeks birthday party during the game due to Flu sickness.

Aargh!

***WATCH ARKANSAS-KENTUCKY ONLINE

I did a quick search and found this from online tv forums.

1. you HAVE to download 'tvuplayer' to watch.  (aka the video feed is in a program with a green circle for an icon, NOT within internet explorer...  though you probably need ie to use it)
2. you might need to download 'sopcast'
3. you might need to download the 'VLC player'

most of the info for where to download those 3 programs is on that link or in those forums..  at least google tvuplayer to start... thats the main thing.

click on "2;00 eastern arkansas at kentucky" on the link to test it once you've downloaded tvuplayer.... right now, its a CBS station from california.... so you'll get THEIR ads and THEIR coverage all day.

again, same standard applies... you can double-click to expand to full screen, volume and video quality is in the player, etc...

For the record, this isn't "SEC APPROVED" so watch at your own risk. I do not endorse this, just passing along the info.  *I CAN'T SEE HOW THIS COULD BE ILLEGAL, YOU ARE STILL WATCHING THAT CBS AFFILIATE'S COMMERCIALS, AND THIS ISN'T A CABLE CHANNEL, BUT A 'FREE' NATIONAL STATION, SO IF YOU HAD AN ATTENNA NEAR SAN FRANCISCO YOU COULD WATCH THE SAME THING. 

Just my two cents.  Enjoy!

[Beaverfever]

Someone really wanted to start a game thread.  And yeah I'd be surprised if alex legion started today.  How about they start him and we start James Anderson??

[Arkiebrian]

I can watch TV on my PC through my video card.  But I won't have that where I'm going.

I really thought we could beat MSU, I feel better about this one though...

[Bomis Hawg]

THE SEC rivalry is on.
Former Dukie Mike Gminski doing the color.  Interesting.

Arkansas is one MSU loss away from holding a big edge in the SECW standings.  A must-win over UK today.

Road win at UK = gold for the resume.

Go Hogs!

[hillhog]

GAME TIME
Go Hogs, eat some puddy cat.

[jbcarol]

Who will we get today?  Nantz and Packer?  Another PBP and Packer?  Gus Johnson and Clark Kellogg or Len Elmore?  Ian Eagle and Jim Spanarkel?

Tim Brando and Mike Gminski.  Had to get Duke in there somehow.

[40MINSOFHELL]

the boo'd our players but cheered for our coach....so funny LOL BOOO.....YEAHHHHHHHHHH LOL

[Bomis Hawg]

I really thought we could beat MSU, I feel better about this one though...

I thought Arkansas stood a better chance at this one before last week.  The way Arkansas rallied and played makes me think the Hogs can nab a win in Pelphrey's homecoming. 

If they are hanging tough or have an early lead midway through the first, I expect a good game.
