SAN FRANCISCO -- Twenty years ago, Eric Musselman was introduced as the new head coach of the Golden State Warriors. And two years later, he was fired after missing the playoffs in back-to-back seasons.
On Thursday, however, Musselman found success in the Bay Area when he led his Arkansas squad to a 74-68 upset win over Gonzaga Bulldogs, the top overall seed in the NCAA tournament and last year's national runner-up.
Arkansas is headed to the Elite Eight for the second year in a row but just the second time since 1995.
Gonzaga made things interesting late, getting within three when Andrew Nembhard hit a 3-pointer with 16.
