FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas basketball will have to get creative to string together wins in the absence of star freshman Boogie Fland, and the Razorbacks were exactly that in Wednesday's gritty, 68-65, comeback win over Georgia.
The latter will be a key event for both LSU (4-1, 1-0) and Arkansas (2-4, 0-1) on Friday, as both are among the top teams in the country on floor. The Razorbacks enter Friday’s meet tied for sixth nationally with an average score of 49.25, though Monday’s scores are not factored into the most recent rankings.
In a year full of adversity and setbacks, the Arkansas Razorbacks just needed to win a game by any means necessary.
Adou Thiero and Karter Knox led Arkansas to the second-largest, come-from-behind win (tied) in Bud Walton Arena history, turning a 12-point halftime deficit into a 68-65 victory over Georgia Wednesday night.
Arkansas returns to Bud Walton Arena for the first of two home games this week starting Wednesday (Jan. 22) versus Georgia. Tip-off versus the Bulldogs is set for 8 pm (CT) and the game will be televised on SEC Network.
The John Calipari era at Arkansas has not gotten off to a great start. As of Wednesday morning, Arkansas is 11-7 on the year after the Razorbacks just lost by 18 to Missouri on Saturday night.
For all of his shortcomings in the postseason, coach John Calipari has always won in the regular season. He couldn't help but mention his multiple winning streaks of 30 or more games, six times longer than his most recent slide, but he also expressed a certain amount of candor about where his team is at.
Arkansas overcame a 15-point deficit in the 2nd half to defeat Georgia for its first SEC win of the 2024-25 season.
