Bama @ Arkansas Game Thread

[edwd58]

Good luck tonight Coach Pearson and the gang. Here's hoping you bbq the Hogs!

 

[edwd58]

The game is on tv (ESPN I think) but this is for any of you stuck at work.

15:00 to go 1st half, Bama leads 9-8.

 

[TIDE-HSV]

I'm going to have trouble watching. All the signs of lack of coaching are still there, and, given Pearson's tenure with CMG, there would be no reason to expect them to go away. On top of that, it's the worst homer officiating I've seen so far this year. I may just start watching again when fundamentals come back...

 

[edwd58]

11:54 to go in the half, Hogs up 15-11.

Two fouls on Gee.

 

[edwd58]

22-16 Hogs, 8:44 to go in the half.

I agree with you, I quit watching. It is easier to take just listening on the radio.

 

[edwd58]

6:00 to go, Hogs 26-21.

Green with 8 so far, Torrence with 9.

 

[edwd58]

34-25 Hogs. 3:32 to go.

Hillman with his 3rd foul.

 

[edwd58]

38-31 Hogs, at the half. Kind of sloppy but we battled back from being down 11 to get within 4 before Ark hit a three just before halftime.

We have several with foul troubles. Gee with 2, Hillman has 3, Knox has 2 or 3.

I've seen a little more fire from Pearson. Also, Brock is showing a little of what he can do given the chance. The three-pointer by Arkansas in the closing seconds put a damper on a nice job by Bama of getting back into it.

38-31 HALF

 

[edwd58]

Welcome to our 0-4 in the league Arkansas friend, lol.

Ark leads 54-44 with 14:55 to play. Every time we get close, they hit a 3.

Green and Hillman have 3 fouls.

 

[bamaman65]

what percent is Arkansas shooting from 3point line?

 

[mgebama]

Don't know 3 point percentage, but it's too good for us to win now. If we can cool 3 point shots we can come back.

 

[CHES-Franklin]

All I can say is I'm glad I have a Tivo and a laptop. I can sync up my tv broadcast with the radio broadcast online. Jimmy Dykes is such a homer. Why ESPN employs that guy is beyond me. Then they have the audacity to let him call an Arkansas game.

Dykes lost all credibility with me just after Saban was hired at Bama. Dykes was doing a basketball game, and he went on and on about Saban's salary. He made the comment that UA's students would not have sufficient libraries and professors to teach them due to UA spending that kind of money on Saban.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time we've seen this before.

The kid is playing well, but our best defender, SH, is not even trying to guard him.

Our kid coach is showing much more willingness to jerk folks who are not trying on the defensive end. Pearson just pulled him again.

 

[edwd58]

Ark 72-60 with 6:45 to play

Green picks up his 4th personal.

 

[CHES-Franklin]

Boy, we sure need a perimeter shooter. Wish we had an Eric Washington, Mykal Riley, or Earnest Shelton right now.

Exactly right. As Chris said on the radio a few minutes ago, we have plenty of people to shoot 3's but nobody that can make one.

75-67 Ark, 3:46 to play. Bama ball.
