Arkansas has shown flashes of potential but has also faced significant challenges, particularly with high-profile losses to teams like Illinois and Baylor. While their offense has had standout performances, as seen in high-scoring wins over Michigan and Lipscomb, their inconsistency, especially defensively, has raised concerns. Upcoming games against top-tier opponents such as Tennessee and Florida will be critical; a couple of wins against these teams could help solidify their position, while further losses might jeopardize their standing. Success in conference matchups is essential, as it will heavily influence their overall resume leading into the tournament.
