1994 or 1995

Which game Suprised you the most?  I have to say losing in '95 still really bothers me.  I just don't understand how we could have lost that game.  Thoughts?

I STILL to this day blame Missouri for letting UCLA off the hook 3 games earlier in the 1995 tourney

A great two years...  all starters or not, making the finals again was surreal to me.... but then losing the championship after reaching it was SHOCK...  only time is healing that one!

Yeah what happens if Edney doesn't make that play? Interesting to think about. Arkansas v. UConn maybe.

How did we lose to UCLA anyway? Edney played about 2 minutes, Cameron Dollar was a joke. Toby Bailey was way overrated....what the hell happenned to him anyway? The O'Bannon's were good college players I guess, but we were still far better. Very disappointing to this day. Then the decisions of Corliss and Scotty. Sigh, oh what could've been?!?!

The 1994 National Championship was the most surprising game to me.  It was the first and only time I've seen the University of Arkansas win a National Championship in football or basketball.  Losing in the Championship Game next year was really disappointing but not as surprising because it is really hard to repeat.

What the heck was Scotty and Corliss doing in this game?  It's beyond me...

yes it is......which pisses me off to no end that Florida has back-to-back Nat'l. Championships and their fan base doesn't give a crap about basketball.

I remember a Syracuse team letting us off the hook. In fact, I think I remember that game a lot more vividly than the National Championship game. Man, I was for sure we had lost that one...

I was randomly in Seattle a couple of weeks ago and stopped in a bar. They were showing the 95 game. It was good just to sit down and watch the glory days.

I have 2 big surprises.

1) 1995 game- I thought we would/should've won. Ucla played great and we looked tired.

2) 1994-Surprised that Duke played us that close. I was expecting a blowout and they hung around for the full 40. Cherokee Parks, Collins, Capel and co had no business hanging with us. We were nervous and struggled shooting the whole night. Until Mr. Thurman showed up.

Bothers me that we destroyed Missouri earlier in the year and UCLA squeaked by them and ended up beating us.
