Pure domination.
That’s the most appropriate description for Arkansas’ 83-51 loss to No. 25 Auburn on Saturday. It was the worst Razorback defeat in Bud Walton Arena’s 31-year history.
“This team has not resembled what we built the last four years from a competitive standpoint, from a defensive standpoint, from a loose-ball-getting standpoint,” [autotag]Eric Musselman[/autotag] said after the game. “So, what are we going to do? We’ve got to try to figure it out as much as we can.”
There’s a lot to figure out for Musselman and his coaching staff, and it’s a little overwhelming deciding which area needs the most work – offense, defense or the intangibles – because everything is bad.
The Hogs still have 18 guaranteed games left on their schedule, but it’s going to be a long three months if they continue to have performances like they did on Saturday.
Let’s take a closer look at Saturday’s loss and discover some of the most glaring issues with this Razorback team.
