Arkansas doesn’t get much time to enjoy their season opening 95-56 win over Samford. Now one of the top mid-major programs in Bucknell comes to Bud Walton. Arkansas grew their lead early thanks to a Daryl Macon hot streak. In the second half it was a balanced scoring effort that led to six players hitting double figures. Arkansas will need that balanced attack in a lot of games this season.

Who is Bucknell?

The Bison have become NCAA tournament regulars. Last season they gave West Virginia all they could handle in the first round. They’re no strangers to SEC play as well, beating Vanderbilt on the road last year.
