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. I’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. Let’s see if they can hold on this time.

I’ve taken Moody off my Pistons draft board.

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

And that’s the shot they get after a timeout?

I can’t decide whether Arkansas offense or defense is worse.

Looks like rumors of AK’s imminent demise were a little exaggerated?

He’s already got a profile now. Doesn’t need to play at a big school. Jaquori McLaughlin on the other hand…

I’ve always had a soft spot for the unis Arkansas wore in 1994. They occasionally reheat a ā€œthrowbackā€ uni, but I don’t understand why there it hasn’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. They’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. he’s way off
