I am confident of a win, perhaps with a large margin. The one thing that bothers me is Cooper's comment postgame after LSU. To loosely paraphrase, she said she looks forward to the future Top 10 matchups but first they have to go do a few blowout games. I don't imagine Kim is loving the bulletin board material. I don't think it will impact this game but it so easy to get upset in the SEC on the road that I would prefer our best player to not take any game for granted.

Take everyone seriously play as hard as you can. We need to start today. I expect to see a huge improvement on the boards which won't tell me much as Arkansas usually gets outrebounded by everyone. I hope we win big and if were leading by 15 or so at halftime don't come out the way we did at A&M. Seems we either start that way or play the third quarter that way. We don't need either anymore.

I don’t have an issue with what Talaysia Cooper said in the press conference.
Coop spoke freely as does many others including CKC.
To me, I understood Coop words as they are setting out to dominate the opponents remaining on the schedule.
It’s a mindset.
This comports with how irritated she looked. I think Coop is a true competitor and is likely livid they let two big upsets slip away. My reading of it was that they were going to take out that frustration on the upcoming teams.

I agree. I’m just using these two as an example take Coop and Whitehorn who are two of the best players from the 2022 HS recruiting class. They don’t think like the average fan does in feeling they can’t compete with or beat any team including South Carolina, USC, LSU, Texas etc. They have competed with players on all those teams throughout their playing career and held their own in either a competitive victory or defeat.
Whitehorn won a state championship with Rickea Jackson. Coop started HS as a 7th grader. These players mindset is different.
Other examples Kaniya Boyd comes from a HS that won like 11 straight State Titles in their conference.
Lazaria Spearman was a Top 30 recruit in the same class with Whitehorn and Cooper. Again, they are built different.

Arkansas is barely in the quad three range for Tennessee today and looks like it might slip to a quad four before the season is over. You can't afford to lose a game like this would be a killer in the Net and rpi rankings.

Yes but just do it don't make a statement even if you look to have a huge advantage on your side.
