Arkansas aims to clinch SWC title and post season path
Arkansas remained in the hunt for the Southwest Conference regular season championship as they host SMU and travel to Houston for a key road tilt. The Razorbacks sit 9-4 in conference play and 17-1 overall, with Houston and Texas Tech closest behind. Arkansas could sit out the first round if Houston or Tech win, while the second round moves to The Summit in Houston and the title game on March 5. Coach Eddie Sutton noted the season’s contrast with 1976, highlighting poise and discipline amid a tough stretch. Houston edged SMU in a late thriller, Texas beat TCU, and Texas A&M defeated Rice as conference races tightened.
