Social media buzz: Arkansas preps for Stanford in Bahamas

Arkansas’ first test against a power-conference team is nearly tip and social media is ready.

The Razorbacks play Stanford in the final quarterfinal game of the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament in Bahamas at 6:30 p.m. The winner of the game will play Memphis after the Tigers beat Michigan in the game before.

Arkansas could use a strong showing. Coach Eric Musselman’s team fell out of the Coaches Poll Top 25 earlier in the week following a loss at Bud Walton Arena to North Carolina-Greensboro. The Hogs are still ranked in the AP Coaches Poll.

Stanford enters with the same record as Arkansas at 3-1. The Cardinal fell just over a week ago to Santa Clara out of the West Coast Conference.

Still, Arkansas is strongly favored considering they’re a predicted NCAA Tournament team, whereas Stanford was picked seventh in the Pac-12.

Check out what’s on social media’s mind before tip below.

Arkansas is favored by a touchdown

The actual line is Hogs by 6 1/2.

Well, bet the house!

Please don’t, actually.

Michigan fans are sad

Not a great game by the Wolverines in the opener of the tournament.

Muss wants it, too

Underratedly important for Arkansas basketball the last few seasons.

Not sure about that

Stanford might be on the NCAA Tournament bubble come March.

That physicality Musselman has been talking about...

For three straight games Musselman has bemoaned his team’s lack of physicality. They need it against Stanford.

Coach Z has the scoop

He’s such a fun color commentator. If you don’t ever listen to the radio broadcasts, you should.

Basketball fans have more hope than football

Not really seeing these kinds of tweets when it comes to the Mizzou game Friday.
