FAYETTEVILLE — Having dropped four consecutive games in SEC play for the second time this season, Arkansas coach Mike Anderson said confidence may play the biggest role in Saturday's rematch against Texas A&M.
The Aggies, who lost seven of their next nine games after falling to the Razorbacks to open conference play on Jan. 5, are suddenly playing some of their best basketball as they enter Bud Walton Arena winners of three of their last four games.
Anderson mentioned Aggies guard Wendell Mitchell - 18 points per game in last six - by name in previewing the game, explaining that the junior is scoring the ball well in February and playing with a spark many on Arkansas' roster are without.
