[Panther Thunder]

Wrong. This game is in Saint Louis NOT @ LOUISVILLE. And Arkansas has added a lot more depth than they had last year, but this game could be effected by some Arkansas players serving suspensions, but none have been announced as of yet. Marshawn Powell will be a huge impact as a freshman. Jemal Farmer will be a great addition. Rotnei Clarke has improved his shot and his quickness. Fortson looks about the same with a slightly improved jumper. Micheal Sanchez is out indefinitely with foot injuries. Julysses Nobles is a good backup ball handler to Fortson. Stefan Welsh will probably not see the floor for a long long time. Glenn Bryant has been the biggest surprise in the pre-season. He is a freakish athlete will a motor that doesn't stop. Delvon Johnson is a newly added big man that can spell Washington who is playing for a first-round pick. Arkansas won their two exhibitions by 18 and 30+. Louisville is better, but on a neutral floor a fully-loaded Hog line-up could make it a game. Suspensions will be the key.

As I said suspensions would be the key. As thought Welsh is out indefinitely. Glenn Bryant will miss the first two games, including this game. Courtney Fortson is out indefinitely. And Marcus Britt is out for six games, including this game. And Sanchez is out for at least three more weeks with injuries and his status for the rest of the season is in doubt.
