The last two years the football team handed the Razorbacks back-to-back humiliations (combined score 120-31). The Trojans' 77-60 win tonight was more of the same, making the Hogs' unlikely trip to the tournament a short one. While Arkansas had a significant height advantage, they didn't take advantage of it. Taking coach Tim Floyd's keys to the game -- defense and rebounding -- to heart, the Trojans held the Razorbacks, 35 percent 3-point shooters, to 15 percent shooting from the arc. Most significantly, they outrebounded them 39-26, a stat that Floyd admitted surprised him.Sat, 17 Mar 2007 06:20:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/pete_mcentegart/03/12/ten.spot/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/pete_mcentegart/03/12/ten.spot/index.html1.
