Opening Consensus Line
Aggies -8.5
Total is 138.5

Back in action at home and the Ags need to protect the home court. Calipari is coming to Reed with a hungry team that has won 3 of 4 including beating KY and Texas on the road and LSU at home. Their only loss in this stretch is to Alabama by 4. Arkansas has some talent even though they have some injuries and are better than their SEC record.

Aggies had a really solid second half on Tuesday night and hopefully we can build off that nice half of basketball on both ends of the court.

Protect the home court!

Just Win!

That second half versus Georgia was merely 'really solid' Mike? Georgia didn't get to 10 that half until 4 minutes remaining and A&M having blasted them by that point 41-10!

I'm a little worried about the recent momentum of Arkansas. I think we will win but would have loved to have played Arkansas in January.

Was pretty much our best half of the year.

except for UK game, they've lost on the road. They haven't been a very good road team, lets hope that continues

I won't feel comfortable until someone posts that we're due for a stinker where we aren't really competitive.

Seems like a pretty big spread for this game. Should be a good one!

this is one of those game that is all about us. arky is absolutely playing improved ball but if we take care of business we win this game by 8-10. i think in some ways because we play a very ugly brand of basketball we aren't given credit for how good we are. especially when we are at full strength. i get the apprehension it's part of our DNA but this team just finds a way to get it done. and a lot of times it's different guys leading the charge.

They also won @ Texas after winning @ UK. They definitely have been playing notably better the last couple weeks. Including on the road.

It was probably the best half of the year. Hopefully we can string two solid half's together against the team you thought might go 0-18.

I don't bet. If I did I would take the 8.5 points. I think we win by 5 points or less.
Arky playing to get in the Dance.

I don't worry about these type of guys this season.

Do they happen to have a scrawny guard who normally scores 9 a game but dreams of going 10/14 from 3 out of nowhere? Let's guard that guy please

So based on this line I expect us to be down 15 at half and win by 18. Someone check my math, but I think that is correct.

In this game these two people are one and the same.

The 7-2 guy is a slenderman looking cat that's a 44% 3pt shooter and averages 9.4 a game. But he's been absolutely on fire their last two games with 25 and 27 so he's not exactly the sleepy threat we normally face.

He's Big Z, another transfer from UK that followed Calipari. He only played part of the season last year because of eligibility issues.

It's exciting to think we might have found another gear.

He will probably try to block everything which might mean even more offensive rebounds for us.

I only watched them closely in the LSU game earlier this week. That 7 ft 2 beanpole is not going to be a huge problem in the paint imo but he was sinking 3 pointers like layups. I dunno what you do about that other than try to deny him the ball out there. Don't allow him clean looks or he could kill you.

I wouldn't bank on that. I'm more excited that with our wildly ineffective, super inconsistent style of play we are good enough to compete with any team in the country. If we bring our 2nd half Georgia game the rest of the way we are winning a national championship.

I think we win but if you can get +9.5 it feels like a money printer.

Will be another uncomfortable game like most SEC games. Arky has had our # for the past couple of years.

Wade, Phelps & Obeseki continue to mesh & score. Payne & Henry can be the bully to the Big Skinny one. We're due a solid 40 minute game at Reed! I gave the pts against UGA, more of the same.

Can I ask about getting 3 & taking Kentucky at tu?

They're 4-7 in conference play for a reason. That big gawk has strung together a few good games lately, but that doesn't make them scary. They don't defend well at all, can't rebound and don't get to the line a ton. We'll have to endure a few runs, but if we can go into Columbia, hold them scoreless for the first 5+ minutes, lead just about the entire game and hand them their first home loss of the season, we can beat a thin Pig team at home.

Their only loss in their last 4 was a 4 point loss to bama. They also won at Kentucky and at Texas. They're definitely trending up in a big way.

Arkansas is 5th in the country in blocks. That means we will have 27 shots blocked today as we get our shot blocked more than anyone.

Year?

It might have been our best full half of our program. It would just be nice if it was paired with an average half for compete domination.
