Patterson)There is no way around it. Arkansas played its worst game of the season on Saturday, and that resulted in its worst loss of the season.
The Razorbacks' NCAA Tournament chances took a bit of a hit, too, after an overtime loss at Missouri, a team that had lost eight of its last 10 games and seven of nine in SEC play. For the first time this season, Arkansas simply did not bring any energy with it on the road. It was clear just a couple of minutes in that it was going to be a long day.
