Hog Hoops turnaround?
Well, Arkansas went down to Baton Rouge and did what they should have. They beat up on an inferior team. The Razorbacks jumped on LSU early, established dominance through full court pressure, and lit up the scoreboard to get their confidence rolling.
More importantly, this senior-laden team got a big lead and never let the Tigers close the gap late in the game. So, the good news is that finally Arkansas got the message and went out with a mission and accomplished it. The bad news is it took 5 SEC games for the players to get the message. Now it may be too late. The hogs begin a nasty 5 game stretch against the best teams in the league... including Mississippi State twice.
The real test is about to begin. It's easy to beat up on lesser teams. Can Arkansas raise it's level to the big boys and make a run for March Madness. It begins Wednesday against the Bulldogs, who looks absolutely nasty this year.
