The No. 16 Arkansas Razorbacks will look for a 2-0 start when they host the Gardner-Webb Runnin’ Bulldogs on Saturday, November 13th at 3:00 p.m. ET from Bud Walton Arena in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Arkansas is coming off a 74-61 victory over Mercer to open the season on Tuesday night. The game was a bit closer than the scoreboard shows as the Razorbacks were actually trailing midway through the second half before pulling away late. JD Notae figures to take on a much larger role for Arkansas as he scored a game-high 30 points, knocking down 5 of 14 three-point attempts, and Au’Diese Toney scored 18 points with 11 rebounds.
Garder-Webb came up short in their first game of the season with a 64-58 loss to the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels on Wednesday night on the road. D’Maurian Williams scored 21 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the way for Gardner-Webb. They will take on the Duke Blue Devils in their next game, so Gardner-Webb has a tough start to their season.

The Pick
Arkansas -20.5
The Razorbacks should come out with a much better performance than they did earlier this week. They are obviously a much more talented team, and Arkansas would not like this game to be as close as their season opener was. The Razorbacks will take a little time to gel as a team that is replacing a lot of production from last season’s breakout year, but they can get it done against Gardner-Webb with ease.
