u could see this coming for about the last 4 games. Blake has developed a weird attitude which is probably from him getting mugged all the time and nothing being called. He just holds the ball too long and turns it over too much lately. Needs to make quicker decisions. I don't blame the offense not going through him when he turns it over and makes slow decisions.

This team needs a butt kickin' to refocus.

I got a new idea for an offense. We get a crazy out of control point guard to run it at full speed and travel and carry the ball, and flail his arms on every possession. Refs won't remember to call travels and and carrying if your dreads are in the way as well.

at one point we were 4-14 from the line.

Cappy
12/31/2008, 01:13 AM
Yes and no. We started lethargic, and got punished for it by a decent team that came out guns blazing. It was set up as a trap game for us, even without our form as of late. Like I mentioned earlier in the thread, it had some similarities to when Maryland came in here the year they won the championship, and we waxed them. However, the fact that we could fight our way back into the game (that was being officiated by Ed Hightower, with a Hightower-iffic technical on Capel) said alot to me as a team. They could have easily folded, but sucked it up and went on a huge run that cut down a lead that was as big as 25 and cut down to 4 by Willie and Crocker knocking in some shots.

Game-wise, Fortson controlled the game. Our guards couldn't keep him from penetrating all night. I don't think they ran a set play all night and their entire offense was him driving in a full speed and dropping off to a big, or finding a shooter.

Offensively for us, Willie was an obvious bright spot, but at the beginning of the game we were settling for too many three's and not looking to get Blake the ball in a good position.

At the time of the game and shortly there after, I was massively disappointed by our effort and showing in a big game, but looking back I am somewhat impressed by the way they fought back.

Screw it, losing sucks, and moral victories are for little brother. ;)

Just my thoughts for what it is worth.

Was very surprised to see the Razorback inside game step up and more than hold their own. That actually turned out to be the bottom line as opposed to what I initially thought, that Arkansas had to shoot lights out from outside to win.

At least the Sooners showed some fight at the end and made things interesting. One loss going into conference play isn't too shabby and I still think they will win a bunch of games and have a great chance to win the Big XII tourney in OKC and go deep in the NCAA's.

at one point we were 4-14 from the line.
You and I have said for a while that that crap would get us beat. Think we could've used a few of those when we cut it to four or five?

It speaks of laziness. Especially with a senior like Taylor missing his first five.

Arkansas hiring a coach that couldn't get the Falcons anywhere, only to have Atlanta go to the playoffs after he leaves and Arkansas out of a bowl game=priceless.

As for basketball, I hope we get more opportunities to play Arkansas. They just stole one of our local talents in Clark (Clarke?) out of the Tulsa area and might again if we don't show them that they can stay home and win.

With the talent they lost from the season before, I think it was a miracle that Petrino got five wins out of that team and it easily could've been eight. The previous Razorback coach wouldn't have won five games. Petrino leaving Atlanta actually turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to the Falcons.

As far as Clarke, apparently he was wanting to go to Arkansas all along. He had relatives living in Fayetteville and it was a dream of his to go play for the Hogs.
