Minnesota has hit a bit of a stumbling block, losing two of its past three games after a 7-0 start.
On Saturday, the 14th-ranked Golden Gophers face a difficult test on the road against unranked Arkansas.
The Razorbacks (6-2) will be looking for payback after losing at Minnesota 85-71 in 2016.
Minnesota lost a Big Ten game at Nebraska 78-68 on Tuesday. Gophers coach Richard Pitino said his team didn't have time to dwell on that loss.
"We've got to learn from it, and then we've got to go play another tough one on Saturday," Pitino said.
