FAYETTEVILLE -- In athletics, a pat on the back can equate to a shove off a cliff.
That's the message Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson imparts to his Razorbacks before they play Ole Miss at 5 p.m. today at Walton Arena.
The Razorbacks played their best game Wednesday, upsetting South Carolina 83-76 in Columbia, S.C. At the time, the Gamecocks shared first place in the SEC with Kentucky and Florida and ranked 21st in The Associated Press poll.
But, as Anderson reminds them, the Hogs had just played their most complete game a couple weeks earlier by rolling the Alabama Crimson Tide 87-68 on Feb.
