Coach Talk

Arkansas Iron Horses
Well, we do admire the confidence this past week, Arkansas Iron Horses. It takes a certain kind of moxie to roll out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Geno Stone, Tony Jones Jr., and David Bell), while still getting the win. Try those shenanigans next week against Wait whut? and see what happens.

Just one make on three field goal attempts? Sounds like Justin Tucker might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after that sort of performance.
