The Arkansas Razorbacks 15-9 (4-7 SEC) have an opportunity to upset the No. 8 Texas A&M Aggies 19-5 (8-3 SEC) on the road in Reed Arena. However, ESPN has revealed that the likelihood of the Hogs upsetting the Aggies is slim: ESPN BET Sportsbook has Arkansas as an 8.5-point underdog, and ESPN Analytics gives the Razorbacks only a 20.1% chance to defeat the Aggies.

As one of the hottest teams in the nation, Arkansas has been defying the odds. If Arkansas can rise to the challenges of three keys to the game against Texas A&M, the team will achieve an upset today in Reed Arena. Despite the doubters, John Calipari's team has the talent to upset Texas A&M in Reed Arena. Alex Miller, a Texas A&M journalist at The Eagle, highlighted that Buzz Williams, the head basketball of the Texas A&M Aggies, said, "Arkansas is 12-1 when it outrebounds its opponents this season."

Before the two teams clash, it is vital to understand who the players are healthy enough to participate. Therefore, this piece provides an injury report for the Arkansas Razorbacks and the No. 8 Texas A&M Aggies.

Arkansas basketball vs Texas A&M Injury Report

Texas A&M Aggies

According to the SEC Student-Athlete Availability Report, the Texas A&M Aggies will have all of their players available to attempt to prevent Arkansas from pulling an upset. At this point in the season, having a team as healthy as Texas A&M makes an upset even more difficult.

Arkansas Razorbacks

The Arkansas Razorbacks will have all of their players available except one. ESPN reveals that Boogie Fland is Arkansas's second-leading scorer, averaging 15.1 points and 5.7 assists per point game, which makes him the team's leader in assists. Fland had season-ending surgery. Therefore, the Razorbacks will have to win another significant game on the road without their second-leading scorer and leader in assists.
