Arkansas comes to Assembly Hall on Sunday as it is the last non-conference game for the Indiana basketball program.

Sunday comes as the final non-conference game for not only Indiana basketball, but also that of the Arkansas Razorbacks. With both teams sitting at just one loss, each program is looking to end the out-of-conference slate with a bang.

For fans thinking that Indiana’s non-conference schedule was weak, which it was, it far exceeds that of what the Razorbacks have faced this year.

With its best win coming against Georgia Tech by one in overtime, Arkansas is in desperate need of a staple win to put its non-conference resume on.

These teams faced off twice last year, once at Arkansas and the other coming at the end of the year when the Hoosiers ended the Razorbacks season in the NIT at Assembly Hall. With both games coming by a combined end result of four points, a one-point win for Arkansas and a three-point win for IU, Sunday’s matchup looks to be more of the same.

While Arkansas guards were a major part of the team’s look last year, it is even more of an emphasis this year with no more Daniel Gafford in the lineup.

As Eric Musselman takes over for Mike Anderson, he brings a new energy to Fayetteville.

Here are the three matchups to watch for when the Razorbacks come to Assembly Hall this weekend.
