why is Arkansas taking these shots? What is going on here?

I picked 5 of the Sweet 16 in my bracket (ouch) but three of my Final Four are still alive. Iā€™m happy for ORU to be the fourth.

In the first meeting ORU had their biggest lead of 12 with 19:42 left in the second half. Now they have it at 15:21. Letā€™s see if they can hold on this time.

Iā€™ve taken Moody off my Pistons draft board.

Like I get you made a couple but thatā€™s 3 or 4 mid range pull ups 6 seconds into the clock by one guy in 4 minutes. What is that??

And thatā€™s the shot they get after a timeout?

I canā€™t decide whether Arkansas offense or defense is worse.

Looks like rumors of AKā€™s imminent demise were a little exaggerated?

Heā€™s already got a profile now. Doesnā€™t need to play at a big school. Jaquori McLaughlin on the other handā€¦

Iā€™ve always had a soft spot for the unis Arkansas wore in 1994. They occasionally reheat a ā€œthrowbackā€ uni, but I donā€™t understand why there it hasnā€™t been brought back as a permanent home option, at least some version of it. It was good. And, of course, they won with it.

I LOVE oral roberts!

Davis forces up more garbage with twenty seconds on the shot clock then gives up a back cut for the easy layup.

And then makes a terrible forced alley oop attempt resulting in another easy layup for ORU.

Oral Roberts has had a bunch of trash possessions too. Theyā€™re so much better moving the ball and they have dudes over dribbling and just getting the ball taken from them.

pretty surprised by Obanor today. heā€™s way off
