What to Know

The Arkansas Razorbacks and the Texas A&M Aggies are set to square off in an SEC matchup at 8:30 p.m. ET Jan. 22 at Bud Walton Arena. The Razorbacks will be strutting in after a victory while A&M will be stumbling in from a defeat.

Arkansas didn't have too much trouble with the South Carolina Gamecocks at home last Tuesday as they won 75-59. Arkansas got double-digit scores from four players: forward Jaylin Williams (19), guard JD Notae (17), guard Au'Diese Toney (13), and guard Stanley Umude (12).

Meanwhile, A&M was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap this past Wednesday as they fell 64-58 to the Kentucky Wildcats. That makes it the first time this season A&M has let down their home crowd. Despite the loss, they got a solid performance out of forward Henry Coleman III, who had 17 points in addition to eight rebounds.

The Razorbacks are the favorite in this one, with an expected 9-point margin of victory. They are currently three-for-three against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

In the teams' previous meeting earlier this month, Arkansas was in the race but had to settle for second with an 86-81 finish. Maybe they will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the matchup and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
