Arkansas will look to make it two straight wins in the SEC with what would be a huge road win at Auburn. The Razorbacks will need to do so with a fast-paced offense that lives at the rim. Arkansas is ranked 44th in the country in scoring offense. They are not a strong team from beyond the arc, ranking just 319th in 3pt shooting. Arkansas' defense has been outstanding thus far with the 31st ranked scoring defense. They are also active on the perimeter, ranking 28th in 3pt shooting defense. The Razorbacks are 122nd in rebounding so far this season and are ranked 165th in turnovers.
