- Anthony Black is the only point guard to rank among the SEC top 20. Additionally, he is just 1 of 2 guards to make the list (with Mizzou’s Kobe Brown). Black Is the only player in the SEC to rank among the league’s top 20 in assists (9th); steals (10th); scoring (17th); rebounding (18th)
- Arkansas’ next two games will be away from Bud Walton Arena but the Razorbacks will be considered the home team.
