What's the record for most combined points scored in a SEC basketball game? There's a chance this one can reach that number.
Auburn and Arkansas are two teams who love to play fast. They both average quite a few points per game (Arkansas at 81.1 per game, Auburn at 80.5). They both give up a lot of points (Arkansas at 74.5, Auburn at 79.4). They're pretty even in most other statistic ESPN puts up on their site. Perhaps that's why the spread on this one is just one point, even though Arkansas has the better record at 21-7 (10-5) than Auburn at 17-11 (6-9).
