You’re going to hear a lot of people complaining about the officiating in tonights game. And I’ll be honest with you…it was pretty bad. But those refs didn’t make Arkansas shoot its worst game of the year, or give up 16 offensive rebounds.
Make no mistake about it, the Kentucky Wildcats are a very good basketball team. The Arkansas Razorbacks just don’t have the athletes to hang with a team like Kentucky. John Calipari got his first win in Bud Walton since he was at Memphis, and the Wildcats completely exposed the Arkansas offense tonight.
The Hogs offense lives and dies by the three pointer, and when a team like Kentucky can stretch the floor and not give up open looks, Arkansas will struggle.
