The Auburn Tigers will start their postseason Thursday night when they take on the Arkansas Razorbacks.
While the Tigers handily won their regular-season matchup 72-59, this matchup will be much tougher. Not only was that game in Neville Arena, but the Razorbacks were without five-star freshman guard Nick Smith Jr. In his last five games, he is averaging 19.4 points and looks like a potential lottery pick.
While the Razorbacks have improved since their first matchup, Auburn is also coming into the game with some momentum. They picked up their biggest win of the season Saturday when they beat the Tennessee Volunteers 79-70, to all but clinch their spot in the NCAA Tournament.
Despite this, the Tigers are the underdogs against Razorbacks, with BetMGM favoring them by 1.5 points. Here is everything you need to know about the matchup before you place a bet.
