Arkansas basketball vs Alabama: How to watch, stream, listen
Nothing can happen Saturday for Arkansas against Alabama except good news. Well, when it comes to the result, anyway.
The Razorbacks tip against the Crimson Tide in a matinee, at 1 p.m., from Tuscaloosa. An Arkansas win the game would probably be enough to put the Hogs into a ‘lock’ position for the NCAA Tournament. A loss wouldn’t do enough damage to their resume, either.
That’s because Alabama will enter the game as a projected No. 1 seed. They’re dealing with their own off-court issues, but on-court, few teams have been better than the Nate Oats’ bunch this year.
Arkansas will finish the regular season next week, at Tennessee and home to Kentucky. If the Hogs were to lose all three of those games, things might be tenuous on Selection Sunday.
But for now, all Arkansas is thinking about is a victory.
