[autotag]Arkansas basketball[/autotag] got off to another slow start on Friday night, only this time they couldn’t overcome. UNC-Greensboro jumped out to a 38-24 lead going in to halftime and the Hogs never got closer than four the rest of the game.
It was the first loss of the season for Eric Musselman’s squad, but there’s a chance they could be much better for it. They likely won’t struggle to shoot as bad again this year, and hopefully learned their lesson with starting slow against an inferior opponents.
Now, Arkansas embarks on an important stretch of their non-conference schedule after having been humbled at home by a team who looked like they just flat-out wanted it more. Musselman will have five days to correct some of his team’s glaring issues before they see another step up in competition.
Let’s take a closer look at some of things that plagued this Arkansas team and allowed UNC-Greensboro to walk out of Bud Walton victorious on Friday night.
