On a day with many important college football games, a college basketball matchup between two championship hopefuls.
No. 16 Arkansas (1-0) and No. 8 Baylor (0-1) enter after drastically different openers. The Razorbacks defeated Lipscomb 76-60 on Wednesday. The Bears lost 101-63 at sixth-ranked Gonzaga on Monday.
These teams are playing at American Airlines Center for the second time. The Razorbacks defeated the Bears 82-75 in Dallas in John Pelphrey's first season in 2007-08. They played several times in downtown Dallas at Reunion Arena during the days of the Southwest Conference.
Arkansas is playing its first neutral-site game of the season.
