HOUSTON – Little Rock continues its season-opening road swing in the Lone Star State on Saturday when the Trojans play at Rice. Game time is set for 1 p.m. with ESPN3 carrying the action from Tudor Fieldhouse in Houston.
This marks the second of two games in Texas to open the year after a battle at No. 6/7 Texas A&M on Tuesday. Rice, while surprisingly not ranked after returning most of their 28-win team from last season, is receiving votes in both major polls.
