Kansas' Loss to Arkansas Makes Back-to-back Title Winner Feel as Unattainable as Ever

When you face the reigning champ?

You must whip it.

Arkansas' Davonte "Devo" Davis was a raging inferno in the second half of the Razorbacks' 72-71 second-round victory over the No. 1 seed Kansas Jayhawks.

The Hogs trailed 42-31 about four minutes into the second half when Davis ignited. A young man who had not scored more than 21 points in a game since December 2021—and who temporarily left the team for personal reasons in late November of this season—put the team on his back, scoring 21 of Arkansas' next 30 points to tie the game up at 61 apiece with four minutes to go.
