The days of playing no-name teams in the preseason are over. The Razorbacks have an early test against Baylor in the second game of the season.

Arkansas beat Lipscomb handily on Wednesday. However, the Bears weren't as lucky. Their first performance went down in flames against Gonzaga. The Bulldogs won 101-63, embarrassing the No. 8 team. Now, they look to prove that game was a fluke against the Hogs.

On the other hand, tonight gives John Calipari and the Razorbacks an excellent opportunity. If Arkansas wins, it's the first over a top-10 team for the new head coach. Here's how you can watch:
