• This will be the 35th meeting between Arkansas and South Carolina, all coming since both programs joined the SEC in 1991-92.
• The Razorbacks own a 20-14 advantage in the series, including an 11-4 cushion in games played in Fayetteville.
• South Carolina won last year’s meeting, but Arkansas has won five of-the-last-seven.
LAST YEAR:
• Jalen Harris scored a career-high 17 points and the game was tied,
63-63, before South Carolina pulled away late for a 77-65 victory at Colonial Life Arena.
• The Gamecocks were able to get the win as they made 16 of their last 22 shots and sank 10-of-15 3-pointers for the game. The Razorbacks were 6-of-22 from beyond the arc.
• Two of those six 3-pointers by Arkansas came early in the game. Mason Jones made back-to-back treys, the first of which came at the 18:43 mark. That triple marked the 1,000th straight game the Razorbacks have made at least one 3-pointer.
• A.J. Lawson led South Carolina with 24 points, making 4-of-5 3-point attempts. Keyshawn Bryant added 17 points and Chris Silva had 16. Hassani Gravett was 3-of-4 from 3-point range.
• Harris was able to score a career-high 17 as he was 7-of-10 from the free throw line. Jones had 15 points and four assists while Isaiah Joe scored 11.

• Coach Musselman had planned on shuffling the starting lineup after two losses and the Isaiah Joe’s injury forced another change.
• Jalen Harris, who started every game last season, got his first start of the year versus TCU. He dished out a season-high six assists. He was inserted into the lineup to speed up the game, pickup up the TCU guards 3/4 court and his skill in transition.
• Desi Sills came off the bench for the first time this season. He scored 18 points —two shy of his career high — on 7-of-8 shooting from the field and making all three 3-pointers.
• Reggie Chaney got his first start of the season — and third of his career. While he did not have a great first half, he scored six straight for the Hogs early in the second half to make it a 3-point game into a 9-point game.
