Arkansas Razorbacks Set to Clash with South Carolina Gamecocks at Bud Walton Arena
As the Arkansas Razorbacks prepare to host the South Carolina Gamecocks at Bud Walton Arena, fans are eager for what promises to be an electrifying encounter. The Razorbacks, coming off a mixed bag of performances in their recent outings, will look to capitalize on their home-court advantage.

They demonstrated efficiency from the field with a 48 percent shooting rate and were particularly dominant in the paint, scoring 38 points. Their ability to convert turnovers into points was notable as they scored 18 points off turnovers.
