The Arkansas Razorbacks have been up and down this season. That wasn’t what they signed up for when they brought John Calipari and several Kentucky players in the offseason.
They just suffered another setback. This time, they lost to No. 1 Auburn in a hard-fought game. The pressure is mounting as the clock is ticking, and the NCAA Tournament is just around the corner.
Nevertheless, Coach Calipari isn’t ready to call it quits. If anything, he knows his team still has an opportunity to shock the world and sneak into the tournament with a strong end to the season.
