Arkansas live and die by their two-point shooting, and that plays firmly into the hands of the Wildcats, who defend it better than almost every other team in the country.

  • Arizona are 10-4-0 ATS in their 14 games against ranked opponents
  • Arkansas are 2-3-0 ATS in their 5 postseason games
  • All 5 of Arizona’s postseason games so far have produced under 166.5 points

Head To Head

  • Arkansas lead the all-time series 6-2
  • Arizona won 83-73 when the two teams last met in November 1995
