Hogs' big loss at Texas an early eye-opener

AUSTIN, Texas — Arkansas coach Eric Musselman anticipated weeks ago that the Razorbacks would have some eye-opening experiences this preseason and early in the regular season.

They had their first one Saturday at Moody Center against No. 12 Texas.

Arkansas, the preseason No. 10 team in the Associated Press Top 25, lost 90-60 to the Longhorns in a highly anticipated exhibition between the long-time rivals. Texas went ahead 5-0 early and led the entire game.

“We have 11 new guys, so obviously we're going to be a work in progress. How far that work in progress gets, I don't know,” Musselman said.
