00:03 I mean, look, we got a real mismatch here between Tennessee and Arkansas.
00:06 Tennessee, a top 10 team, and Ken Palm, Arkansas, outside of the top 100 here.
00:12 Tennessee, only 8.5 point favorites on the road against the 12 and 11 Razorbacks.
00:17 What do you make of this one, Zeno?
00:19 >> Arkansas is a team that I kinda left for
00:23 dead after they lost to Kentucky at home.
00:26 I didn't think they had anything left in them.
00:30 They came out and they spanked Missouri.
00:32 And then they get drubbed by LSU and
00:35 they get this weird strange win against Georgia,
00:38 who's actually a lot better than what we thought they were.
00:41 I still don't think this Arkansas team is very good.
00:44 They're not good on the defensive end of the floor at all.
00:47 And this is a team that sort of makes me wonder if
00:51 Eric Musselman is kind of on his way out the door.
00:54 It just sort of feels that way for the Razorbacks here that things might be
00:59 changing because this was a team that we thought last year, at every chance to make
01:04 the Final Four, or at least make a deeper run in the tournament, and
01:08 it just didn't work out that way.
01:09 But this is not an Arkansas team that I like.
01:13 Defensively, they're just god awful.
01:15 Dead last in the conference and adjusted defensive efficiency, and
01:19 they can't stop anybody on the perimeter or inside.
01:23 It's not a team that I would look to play.
01:25 I'd probably look to a Tennessee team total over tonight.
01:28 Just hope the fact that Tennessee, after their last showing, comes out and goes,
01:32 guess what, we need to make somebody pay for how poorly we played last time.
01:35 And Arkansas, you're up.
