The Arkansas Razorbacks came into their fourth matchup of the season against Central Arkansas as a 26-point favorite. However, the team’s three-point shooting was off the mark, as they could only make 9 of 23 shots from long range, but they still fended off the Bears’ second-half surge to grab a 13-point win.
After the game, Arkansas head coach John Calipari gave his team a clear reality check despite the Razorbacks improving to a 3-1 record in his postgame conference. Calipari said:
“Today I told them, I am not pushing, I am dragging you. Todd is, deal with it. I am dragging you. Do we have talent? Yes, but this is a game of five guys playing together and all of them knowing how to win and playing to win. Not playing to get their points, not playing to make a hero’s play. I’m making easy plays, and we’re going to do it back to back until they call a timeout. We’re not near there. We’re not even halfway home.”
