- Arkansas ranks 37th the NCAA and second in the SEC in free throw percentage (.772).
^ That may not seem like something to brag about unless you consider that last year, the Hogs were 306th (of 351 teams) in free throw percentage (.668).
- The team’s percentage is bolstered by Mason Jones, who is 23-of-23 (and has made 32 straight dating back to last year).
- Another significant turnaround, again that would not seem brag-worthy, has been Arkansas’s ability to play strong defense without fouling. Last year, the Razorbacks were 333rd in the NCAA in committing fouls (694 total 20.4 avg). This year, Arkansas is 99th in the NCAA/4th in the SEC in fouls (63 total 15.8 avg).

- After getting 11 votes in the first AP regular-season poll, Arkansas received just three votes in the second AP poll, which would equate to #43 ranking, despite two more convincing wins. Arkansas received nine votes in the Coaches Poll #37.
- Arkansas has not been ranked since Jan. 2018 (22nd), starting 11-2. However, the Razorbacks dropped out after losses to Mississippi State (1/2/18) and Auburn (1/6/18).
- Arkansas, which started 6-1, received votes on three consecutive weeks by the AP last season, including one vote on Nov. 19, six votes on Nov. 26 and three votes on Dec. 3.
