Hogs commandeered tempo from Frogs

With 17.6 seconds to play and the University of Arkansas leading 78-67, TCU’s Jamie Dixon took a timeout.

Dixon is an excellent coach, but no one is good enough to draw up an 11-point play, and the Razorbacks ran out the clock to improve to 15-4.

Maybe Dixon was trying to let his Horned Frogs regain enough air to walk off the court. The Razorbacks ran almost at will, and TCU chased and too often couldn’t catch up.

It was a must-win game for the Hogs, who have positioned themselves as a candidate for the NCAA Tournament in Eric Musselman’s first season.
