The Razorbacks are back in Bud Walton tonight after knocking off Pacific by 19 on Monday. They'll face an instate opponent, the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR), led by former Hog Darrel Walker.

The teams have only a one-game history, with Arkansas defeating the Trojans 93-78 on its way to a second consecutive Elite Eight appearance in 2021. Interestingly, there's a tie between the game in 2021 and today's game. Former Razorback KK Robinson played for Arkansas in 2021 against UALR, but now he dons the maroon and silver. Unfortunately, there will not be a reunion, with Robinson out indefinitely due to injury.

Injuries have also been a problem for Arkansas. John Calipari is working with a small bench after only signing nine scholarship players. The frontcourt has suffered the most so far this season. Jonas Aidoo and Trevon Brazile sat out with injuries against Pacific, leaving the Hogs with one true big in Zvonimir Ivisic.

Arkansas must stay healthy to make a dent in its conference schedule. Doing that through the next nine games will be difficult, but it starts with tonight's against UALR. Here's how you can watch:
