We spent most of the first half trailing by more points than we had scored, so only being down by ten is some kind of victory.  The question today seems to be how do you prepare a team like Arkansas.   Nobody’s the same player they were yesterday afternoon.

Maybe Sonny will indeed heat up in the second half, but we’re not likely to succeed unless we get some unexpected production from someone like Thomas.  Hill might have earned some stripes in the waning seconds yesterday, but he’s not matching up well with Bliss.  If we’re gonna come back, we’re gonna have to throw up something better than prayers in the final twenty.
