Simply put, Arkansas can't get baskets or make stops when it really matters.

Thiero played pretty well, Richmond got a lot of minutes. Ivisic faced off with his twin brother.

Lots of the same from Calipari.

Zvonimir's twin, Tomislav had 21. He was the 2nd leading scorer for the Illini.

Fland finished with 8 points and 4 fouls. Brazile had 5 and Johnell Davis had 3. Getting a combined 16 points from those three is not going to cut it if you are going to give up 90+.

The best thing that you can say for Arkansas right now is that they have Top 25 talent and look like a Top 25 team in spurts. Get them in a half court game and they struggle though.
Had no idea Z had a brother, let alone a twin. How did I not know that lol. As for the game, it is just like watching the last few years of UK under Cal. No more than an AAU team who has no basktball flow. Just a run and gun, get your own type offense. Yes they will win some games and win them big but in games where it takes some coaching they will not get it done.
