Welcome, everyone. It is the local toy dealers KSR post game show. I'm Matt Jones, Kentucky, takes a pretty terrible loss at home, 89 to 79 against John Calipari and Arkansas on their return trip to Rupp Arena. We'll open up the phones, 859-280, 2287. I'm sure a lot of you, I'm sure a lot of

0:24.5

people are actually probably sitting this one out because they don't want to think about it,

0:28.2

but a lot of you are listening and have thoughts, I'm sure. You know, look, what can you say?

0:34.4

I think this is a really tough loss for really more for the fans

0:40.4

than for this particular season or hope i really just think it's fans really wanted this one

0:48.2

1:32.5

I thought Kentucky played well, too.

1:40.5

But you would have said, well, I mean, if they're going to shoot like that, what are you going to do?

1:44.3

But in the second half, Arkansas played well again, and Kentucky just kind of didn't answer the bell.

1:50.5

And that was, that was disappointing.

1:53.1

So let's talk just a second about, just the night.

1:56.1
