Tonight's game: vs. South Carolina 8-8 (0-2 SEC)
At Bud Walton Arena
7:05pm tipoff
No TV
The Gamecocks come in on a three game losing streak averaging only 62 points per game over the three game stretch and things don't figure to get any easier tonight, because the Hogs are 13-3, 2-0 in SEC play, and are riding a four game winning streak.
The Razorbacks are 9 1/2 point favorites and should dominate on the glass and in the paint as South Carolina relies on the scoring of 5'9 sophomore guard Devan Downey (19.1ppg) and six-foot junior Zam! Fredrick (I added the exclamation point because I think it gives a little more flair to the name Zam) who is averaging 16 points per game.
(Look out for Zam!)
Seriously, do you think his parents were big fans of the 70's Batman television show? If you never saw it, all the fight scenes included word generated graphics whenever Batman or Robin would hit a bad guy like "Pow!" or "Biff!" or "Bam!" I'm sure there was probably a "Zam!" in there somewhere at sometime.
Total mismatch on paper, but then again so was Appalachian State. I don't think the Hogs are in for any kind of let down though and win this thing either 146-17 or somewhere in the neighborhood of 88-72.
