FAYETTEVILLE — The shot clock is a little shorter. So is the length of the court.

The lane is wider. Goal-tending is allowed. There is one fewer official.

Those are some of the differences in playing games governed by rules for the International Basketball Federation the Arkansas Razorbacks will experience during their four-game European tour compared to NCAA rules.

University of Arkansas Coach Eric Musselman said the officials — two under FIBA rules rather than three in college games — also might be a little quicker to call technical fouls.
