Missouri (8-12, 0-7 Southeastern Conference) returns home after a two-game road trip to face Arkansas (10-10, 1-6) for the first time this season. This past Saturday, the Tigers suffered their seventh consecutive loss with a 72-64 loss to South Carolina.
The series between the Tigers and Razorbacks predates MU’s time in the SEC as Norm Stewart and Nolan Richardson’s squads played a series of matchups in the 80’s and 90’s. The two teams also frequently matched up in the 50s and 60s as well. All time, Arkansas leads the series 33-27.
Last season, Mizzou fell in Fayetteville 74-68 before picking up a 79-76 victory at home.
