PROVIDENCE — St. John's raced past Omaha in a 30-point opening-round March Madness win. And Arkansas survived Kansas and could be hitting its stride at the right time.
Now we're ready for the matchup that most of the country wanted to see: Rick Pitino vs. John Calipari. If history tells us anything, Saturday’s game at the Amica Mutual Pavilion in Providence could go to the wire.
Game time is set for 2:40 p.m. between No. 2 St. John's (31-4) and No. 10 Arkansas (21-13). The two programs have only played each other twice and split the two meetings.
