So Arkansas is 10-0 in the Sweet Sixteen? Nice.


No. Arkansas is 6-4 in the Sweet Sixteen. Arkansas made Elite Eights prior to the current format in 1941, 1945, and 1949.

This will also make any school that has been to Elite Eights prior to the current format have a different record than what the numbers actually suggest.

Dam, it's just mind boggling to look at UK and what they've done in bball. I think they have more SEC tourney championships that the rest of the SEC combined.
