The Mizzou men's basketball team faces rival Arkansas on Saturday, beginning a stretch in which the Tigers' next four games are against bottom-half Southeastern Conference opponents.
Three of those four are on the road, starting with the trip to Fayetteville, Arkansas, but the Razorbacks, likely the nation's best 12th-place team, are expected to put up a fight.
Arkansas (15-11, 4-9 Southeastern Conference) lost 67-60 to No. 1 Auburn on Wednesday night. The Hogs have played three top-10 teams, two of them on the road, in their last four games and have lost those games by an average of 6.
