The Arkansas Razorbacks were blown out by South Carolina on Saturday afternoon, which was not a good look for their NCAA Tournament resume. For some reason that

With two wins, Arkansas was finally back in projections for the NCAA Tournament. However, the Razorbacks could be back out after a historically poor performance this weekend that John Calipari wants he and his team to forget.

Arkansas coach John Calipari had given up all hope of winning against South Carolina with seven minutes to go Saturday. His team found itself down 35 points, and he wanted to get out of Colonial Life Arena as soon as possible.

After a crushing loss to South Carolina, John Calipari has admitted he made a mistake in his small roster construction for Arkansas basketball.

The Gamecocks' interior defense frustrated Arkansas by sagging off non-threats from 3-point range. Players defending Richmond, Brazile, Aidoo and even Wagner at times clogged the lane rather than guarding their man on the perimeter.

All the momentum John Calipari’s team had built since its February 1 victory over Kentucky took a major hit in a 72-53 blowout loss at South Carolina. The defeat doesn’t erase Arkansas’ recent progress, but it serves as a stark reminder that this team can’t afford another misstep with an already short bench and key injuries hampering its depth.

How bad was Arkansas in the first-half of a huge bubble game versus South Carolina? This was the worst of the worst, historically.

Collin Murray-Boyles scored 35 points as South Carolina beat Arkansas 72 -53 on March 1 at Colonial Life Arena. The Gamecocks improved to 12-17, 2-14 SEC.
