SDS’ Connor O’Gara on Hogs landing in Top 25 of first media poll
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas is ranked No. 19 in the preseason Associated Press Top 25 Poll, which was released Monday morning.
The Razorbacks are one of six SEC teams ranked in the AP’s preseason poll, along with No. 1 Alabama, No. 3 Georgia, No. 6 Texas A&M, No. 20 Kentucky and No. 21 Ole Miss.
The Hogs are ranked in both major preseason polls. Arkansas checked in at No. 23 in the USA Today Coaches Poll, which was released one week ago.

Big defensive effort, Trevon Brazile lead Hogs to final win in Italy
COMO, Italy — Arkansas didn’t allow a field goal until 10 seconds left in the first quarter and Travon Brazile scored 28 points with nine rebounds to lead the Razorbacks to a 70-59 win over the Bakken Bears in the fourth and final game in Arkansas’ foreign tour.
Brazile made 13-of-15 from the field while Kamani Johnson finished with nine rebounds and eight points. Ricky Council and Davonte Davis each scored 10 points and Anthony Black led the squad with seven assists.
Nick Smith., who did not play the second half with a minor leg injury, drained a 3-pointer 16 seconds into the game and Arkansas led the rest of the way.
Bakken, a top-tier pro team from Denmark featuring Arkansas native Skylar Bowlin (Paragould), got to within one, 3-2, after a pair of free throws but would not score again until hitting a third free throw with 6:24 left.
The Hogs’ swarming defense allowed the Razorbacks to lead 20-3 with 17 seconds left in the opening period.
Bakken ended the dry spell from the field by making a layup with 10 seconds left to provide the 20-5 score after 10 minutes.
Bakken’s age and experience helped the Bears win the next two quarters (25-21 and 16-14). While the Hogs led by as many as 17 in the third quarter, Bakken trimmed its deficit to nine (55-46) after 15 minutes.
Arkansas had some sloppy play in the fourth quarter but still took a pair of 15-point leads – the last coming with 1:16 left before Bakken scored the last four points to provide the 70-59 final.
Thanks to Brazile and Johnson, Arkansas dominated the boards, 44-32. However, Arkansas committed 30 turnovers, forcing 27 on 15 steals.
Also, thanks to Brazile, the Hogs shot 49 percent from the field, compared to 31 percent by Bakken, and the Hogs held the Bears to 19% (5-of-26) from 3-point range.
Arkansas will leave Como early Tuesday morning for a flight from Milan to New York City then connect on to Fayetteville with stops in Dallas (players and coaches) and Washington D.C. (staff and families).
The Hogs should return to Fayetteville around 9:30 pm (CT), a nearly 18-hour travel day.
