trainermch thank you! Been waiting for this thread.
I've seen a lot of assumptions that UK is going to play (likely) Nebraska in the Elite 8. One thing I will say that I said in the SEC thread: beating the same team three times in one season is no easy feat. Arkansas has a lot of film to figure out what to do differently. And I do wish both teams were playing someone different in the Sweet 16. It would be nice to see some different match-ups.

I just don’t see Arkansas taking this one. Kentucky in 3🫣

This is a tough match-up for Kentucky because it's a senior-filled Arkansas team that has come so close to beating them (I think there have been 3-4 5-setters in the past few years), but haven't been able to pull the win out. That could make this more competitive than if these two teams didn't have that conference history. I still think Kentucky takes this, but intra-conference meetings in the tournament always feel a little different.

I feel like Arkansas is just one of those teams where you know what you're gonna get. Even the best team slightly off their game could easily lose to Arkansas. They are very beatable, but, they are not going to give you a lot of free points either.

If the Huskers win ahead of this match, will the Husker crowd root for its former assistant, or for Arkansas, believing that a hot Kentucky would be a tougher opponent?
