Transcript
00:00 - Well, Arkansas managed to pull one out
00:02 in the SEC tournament.
00:04 It's one game against Vanderbilt.
00:07 It's a 90 to 85 overtime game
00:10 that probably shouldn't have been overtime
00:13 from Nashville, Tennessee.
00:15 And this is one that people will still be talking about.
00:21 On our All Hogs group, we have a text thread going on
00:27 with all of us that are on there, Kent Smith,
00:30 Jacob Davis, Daniel Shee.
00:32 We're all on during the game giving our comments.
00:36 One of them commented in the final minute of the game
00:40 after it went to overtime,
00:42 "This is the most Arkansas thing ever."
00:46 Well, that would have been the case
00:48 if they hadn't come back and won it 90 to 85 in overtime.
00:52 But they still managed to make it interesting
00:57 in the final few seconds of that game in halftime.
01:01 Arkansas was holding a lead.
01:03 And dang, if they didn't nearly blow that
01:06 in the final few seconds too,
01:08 Vanderbilt got away with the refs not calling
01:11 a foul in the late seconds
01:15 when the Commodores tried to get them to call a foul
01:18 when they could have cut it.
01:19 Arkansas managed to pull away and put it out of reach
01:23 when it was too late for Vanderbilt to do anything about it.
01:27 This one, Califf Battle scores 24 points
01:29 to lead the Razorbacks.
01:30 Trayvon Marks scores 18.
01:32 And it was good to see Trevin Brazil
01:37 come back with 13 points.
01:40 But more importantly, he got 12 rebounds
01:43 and that's something they're going to need
01:45 in whatever post-season they have left.
01:48 It will start against South Carolina
01:50 in the SEC Championship.
01:53 That game will come up tomorrow at two o'clock, I believe,
01:57 or 2.30 on the SEC Network.
02:02 Well, if they manage to make that one
02:06 as exciting as this one,
02:07 we'll have even more to talk about
02:10 before we can move into spring football full-time.
02:15 Stick with all hogs, we'll have complete coverage for you.
