Mr. Payback: Musselman usually gets best of teams second time around

FAYETTEVILLE — When University of Arkansas men’s basketball Coach Eric Musselman’s college teams are owed a victory by an opponent, they usually have collected.

Musselman’s Nevada and Arkansas squads are a combined 10-2 the past six seasons when playing a team that beat them earlier in the season.

The Razorbacks are 7-1 in payback games in Musselman’s three seasons as their coach, and they’re hoping to add another victory when Arkansas (17-5, 6-3 SEC) plays Mississippi State (14-7, 5-3) at 7:30 tonight at Walton Arena.
