Arkanas basketball vs. South Carolina: How to watch, listen, stream, key players, more
Arkansas basketball was able to get back in the win column on Tuesday with their 78-77 victory over Texas A&M. Thanks to Tramon Mark’s last-second runner, the Hogs were able to end a three-game losing skid to begin SEC play.
On Saturday, the Razorbacks are back at home to take on a 14-3 South Carolina squad who have split their first four conference contests. The Gamecocks boast an impressive record at first glance, however a closer look shows that they’ve benefitted from a weak schedule. South Carolina is currently No. 71 in NET ranking with 11 of their 17 games having been Quad 3 or 4.
Another thing that could give Razorback fans optimism, is that recent history in this series has favored the Hogs. hey’ve beaten the Gamecocks in their last three meetings including six of the last eight in Bud Walton Arena.
For Arkansas, Tuesday’s win over the Aggies was the first of many steps needed to rebuild their NCAA Tournament resume. A win over the Gamecocks is the next step in that plan.
Here’s how you can catch all of the action from Fayetteville later today.
