Arkansas basketball aims to get back on track against Troy

Razorbacks coming off tough loss to No. 2 Alabama

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - The Arkansas Razorbacks will look to get back on track when they host the Troy Trojans on Saturday afternoon.

The Razorbacks (12-5, 1-3 SEC) are coming off a tough loss to No. 2 Alabama on Wednesday night.

The Trojans (9-4) are coming off a win over South Alabama on Wednesday night.

The Razorbacks will need to find a way to get their offense going against a tough Troy defense.

The Trojans are allowing just 60.9 points per game this season.

The Razorbacks will also need to be careful with the ball against a Troy team that forces 15.3 turnovers per game.

The Trojans are led by senior guard Nelson Phillips, who is averaging 16.3 points per game.

The Razorbacks are led by junior guard Nick Smith Jr., who is averaging 19.3 points per game.

The game will be televised on the SEC Network.

It can also be streamed on ESPN+

The Razorbacks are a slight favorite in this game, but the Trojans are a tough opponent.

I think the Razorbacks will win a close game, but the Trojans will cover the spread.

Arkansas 73, Troy 68
