... and they can't shoot for crap. They're 4-13 from 3 and that's good for them, but they're 15-40 overall. They're playing Troy, who was picked to finish third in the Sun Belt, and has 12 players returning from last year. Troy led at half 27-26 and Arkansas has started to play better as it's 41-36 now with about 12 minutes remaining.

It's amusing to me because I saw someone post a Youtube video that claimed Arkansas has the scariest backcourt in the nation after their thrashing of Kansas in an exhibition game. Their backcourt is a highly regarded true freshman Boogie Fland and a Kentucky transfer D.J Wagner. Wagner is scoreless at the moment and is shooting 29 percent from three for the season. Fland has 9 points, is averaging 17 a game and shoots 30 percent from three. There are several backcourts in the Big 12 that are scarier, including ours.
