What channel is Arkansas vs Alcorn State on today? Time, TV schedule for basketball season opener
The Arkansas men's basketball season has arrived, amid much anticipation and expectations of a season ending with a trip to Phoenix for the Final Four.
The No. 14 Razorbacks will host Alcorn State inside Bud Walton Arena on Monday to begin their 2023-24 campaign. Arkansas will play four-straight home games before hitting the road during Thanksgiving week in the Battle 4 Atlantis.
Arkansas went 2-0 across its preseason exhibitions, cruising past UT-Tyler and outlasting No. 3 Purdue in overtime. Khalif Battle led the Hogs in scoring, averaging 13 points in the two exhibitions.
The Razorbacks are coming off a third-straight trip to the Sweet 16 in 2022-23, finishing with a 22-14 record. Alcorn State went 18-14 last year, sharing the SWAC regular season championship with Grambling State, but the Braves lost in the first round of their conference tournament.
