They make 6 a game for the season, defense has got to show up in the 2nd. And they’re not respecting us back door and these dribble handoffs are getting pushed out to 35ft. Big time adjustments coming I hope cause we’re making them look a lot better than they really are.

We’ve had trouble all year trying to keep teams from driving the lane and also guarding the three. We’re just a terrible defensive team and have to outscore people or we lose.

The book on Arkansas is to let them take them. Of course they’re making them. I still say you’ll see some 1-3-1 from Pope in the second half. He’s played pretty conservative so far.
 
We are absolutely terrible guarding the 3…..no reason whatsoever to run over all of the picks!!! They have to run in front of the damn picks and a more aggressive attitude to play good defense! Enough of the pansy bullshit defense!!!!

All Ark games for Ark have been rock fights so Cal came in and trying to beat us at our own game. Hope Pope adjust b3cause noway Ark continues to shoot like this.
He knew that without Butler he could pressure the ball, get turnovers and easy bskets. His drive action is good against teams like us that don't guard very well and it has given him every look that he wants. Everyone from Arky is hitting except Wagner.

Personally idc what a scouting report says….if im guarding someone, it’s to completely shut them down!!!! Not to allow them to shoot em wide open and gamble!
 
Made them look like the best shooting team in the conference so far.🤦‍♀️🤬🤦‍♀️
 
Maybe that last one Knox hit was kind of unexpected, but 5 out of the 9 have been open shots by Davis (career 36% shooter even if he’s slumping this year) and Ivisic (career 40%). It isn’t quite as crazy looking at it that way. We need to play better defense.
 
PATHETIC DEFENSE!!!! This is a horrible game for us so far! Why in the #%^* do we let everyone short wide the hell open??? Pope needs to get it together because this would be a BAD BAD BAD loss…
 
I can’t believe we give so many open 3s, Z does one thing and that’s go to the 3 line yet he gets an open look. I know pope is an offensive guy but we have got to play some D to win cause we’ve given them all the confidence they need.
