Eric Musselman, Players Recapping Win Over LSU

WATCH-LISTEN: Hogs Facing Team on Hot Streak in Aggies

Texas A&M and Razorbacks each won at home and both are among hottest teams in league

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas probably expected to be playing Auburn on Saturday.

Texas A&M had other ideas.

Now the Razorbacks will face the Aggies at noon after A&M's surprisingly big win over the Tigers on Saturday.

The two teams are familiar with each other. This is the third time they've played this season after each team won at home.

"I have tremendous respect for Buzz Williams as a coach," Arkansas coach Eric Musselman said after downing LSU on Friday. "He has a group of guys that, much like us, got hot at the end of the year.

"They've done a phenomenal job of playing really, really good basketball lately."

The Hogs got a double-bye to the quarterfinal. Texas A&M got one game off, then face Florida and won in overtime, 83-80. On Friday they dominated Auburn, 67-62 in a game that really wasn't that close.

Arkansas used a big burst in the second half to roll through the Tigers for the third time this year with a 79-67 win.

The game will start at noon on ESPN and FuboTV with Karl Ravech and Jimmy Dykes calling the game while Marty Smith roams around looking for somebody to interview.
