Tigers Stumble in Second Half, Get Blown Out by Bulldogs

It was a tale of two halves for the Tigers against Mississippi State.

The Tigers began the game very much like the team that dominated Arkansas in Fayetteville on Saturday, but after the teams returned from the locker rooms at halftime, it was all Bulldogs.

After the game, Cuonzo Martin said, “I thought we had one of our better halves all season in the first half, moving the ball, sharing the ball, defending, protecting the lane. Then in the second half, I just couldn’t tell you (what changed).”

The Tigers were outscored 51-24 in the second half, after leading by 12 at the intermission.
