FAYETTEVILLE -- Tonight's exhibition game won't be the first time Arkansas and Central Missouri have met in basketball, but it's been a while.
Even longer than since the Chicago Cubs' previous World Series appearance in 1945.
The Razorbacks and Mules last played 75 years ago during the 1941-42 season when Arkansas won 44-36.
Tonight's game in Walton Arena won't count in the standings and there figure to be a lot more points scored, though nothing like the Razorbacks' intrasquad game last Sunday when the Red team beat the White team 118-113 in overtime.
Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson said that after the Razorbacks had some fun in the Red-White game, playing tough defense will be a focal point tonight.
