Arkansas unofficially kicked off its basketball season nearly two weeks ago with an exhibition game against preseason No. 1 Kansas. And to the pleasant surprise of Razorback fans, the Hogs took Kansas to the woodshed, beating the Jayhawks 85-69. But in last week's exhibition game against TCU, Arkansas lost 66-65.

Coach John Calipari warned the media after their win against the Jayhawks that the team is still meshing and learning how to play together, so it's not a shock the Hogs lost. But now the games are real; they count against Arkansas's record.

Lipscomb is Arkansas's first matchup of the regular season, and if you forgot, the Bison nearly knocked off Arkansas in Little Rock last year. They return Jacob Ognacevic, a 6-foot-8-inch forward who dropped a double-double (30 points, 10 rebounds) against Duquesne. The post presence of Trevon Brazile and Zvonimir Ivisic must be dominant tonight to keep Ognacevic in check. The Bison are also dangerous from deep, knocking down 69.2 percent of their three-point attempts for 54 points.

If the Razorbacks can slow down one of those two strengths, it should be an easy night for Arkansas. If they can't, the Hogs might be in the same situation as last season. Here's how you can watch how it goes down:
