Arkansas basketball is officially on the rise.
After an impressive 2–0 week in conference play, the Razorbacks made a significant jump in the latest AP Poll, climbing five spots from No. 20 to No. 15. The surge comes on the heels of back-to-back SEC wins, highlighted by a dominant performance against a ranked Vanderbilt squad and a hard-fought victory over LSU in a Saturday night thriller.
