I'll admit, driving over, I felt pessimistic about the game. It was a different team, different approach. Trojans played good defense, and I thought moved the ball much better than they have been. We were short handed inside, Smith didn't play at all, and Shane in early foul trouble, fouled out with only 26 minutes PT. It appears Foster has found a place on the team. The win meant a lot to me because the hogs struggled to beat them last Sat. Now, we will see what they do on the road.
The game would have not even been close is we had anyone to guard the post. How many and 1's did they get? Where is Mike Smith? Why can't we play Burton more than 2 minutes?
Good game by a very short handed UALR team tonight with Patterson and Smith basically being out.

The win last night meant a lot to me because they are in our conference, it was a home game, and we needed to win to stay in the hunt.
When we beat OU and Texas in one week, we can start comparing scores. Until then, let's all just be glad the Trojans got a win last night.
Oh yeah, let me help you out with "what they do on the road". Hogs are going to lose some AND win some on the road. It's called the SEC and ITS BRUTAL.

You're right about the score comparison. Means nothing. Let's just enjoy the league win, and enjoy, if you like, the Hogs also winning. Like Scotto, I root for both. My team is the Trojans, but the Hogs are my BCS team.
Second straight overtime win at home! I guess they don't want anyone to leave early.
