Is that we are 5-5 on the road? We can blame the officials but playing .500 ball away from home is concerning in terms of the big dance.
I was speaking directly about the Arkansas game on the road. Other games we did play terribly though. Although not our best, we didn't play terribly against Arkansas. It was a completely one-sided officiating job.

We shoot and handle the ball worse on offense, and lose focus on defense a little more often on the road.

I think those are the biggest culprits. I think we have also played some really good defensive teams on the road...which also has a lot to do with it.

I mean, maybe? We're 2nd in the SEC with 5 road wins (Auburn has 7), only 3 teams are undefeated at home in the SEC. Auburn, Kentucky, Tennessee.

But our SOS is the 2nd best in the SEC (Alabama have the only tougher schedule).

We're 7-7 in Quad 1 (all 7 losses played away from TBA). And a combined 14-0 against Quads 2-4.

Kentucky and Auburn are arguably the only two teams with better resumes. And we are 2-1 against them. Zags only played 11 Q1 teams and the bulk of their other games were Q4 teams. We've played 9 Q2 & Q3 teams, Kentucky just 7, Texas Tech just 6.


Of course this is really only going to help us with seeding...we still gotta go out and play well, especially on offense. We only have 1 loss where we didn't shoot below 30% from 3PT and 40% from FG.

it really does blow one's mind the disparity between home/away records for all the teams, even the best ones. Could it be the biggest advantage in sports?
