UA, Bama 2 of 6 in logjam for third

FAYETTEVILLE -- The Arkansas Razorbacks aren't alone in third place in the SEC basketball standings going into today's game against Alabama in Coleman Coliseum.

The Razorbacks have plenty of company, including the Crimson Tide.

WHEN 5 p.m. today

Alabama and the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville are part of a six-way tie for third in the SEC at 8-7 along with Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi State and Missouri.

All of the third-place teams have been eliminated from the SEC championship race with three regular-season games to play.

Only Auburn (12-3) or Tennessee (10-5) can win the conference title, but Arkansas is among the teams competing to finish third or fourth, which means a double-bye in the SEC Tournament.
