HawgBeat – Arkansas at Mississippi State: TV details, key players, BetSaracen odds
Arkansas (12-12, 3-8 SEC) is limping to finish a historically bad season but the Hoop Hogs have a chance to earn some end-of-season momentum as they get ready to face the Mississippi State Bulldogs (16-8, 5-6 SEC) on Saturday inside Humphrey Coliseum.
The Razorbacks currently own a 35-33 all-time record advantage against the Bulldogs, but Arkansas is just 6-21 in Starkeville all-time. The Hogs have lost four straight at The Hump with their last win coming on Feb. 21, 2005.
Led by second-year head coach Chris Jans, the Bulldogs are coming off back-to-back wins over Georgia and Missouri. Mississippi State has already defeated programs like No. 5 Tennessee and No. 8 Auburn this season.
With Arkansas having a quick turnaround after a late game against Tennessee on Wednesday night and Mississippi State getting a week off since its last matchup, the Hogs will have to quickly prepare for the Bulldogs. Head coach Eric Musselman isn’t pleased about the situation.
“You get the schedule that people give you and itâs not an excuse,” Musselman said on Wednesday. “Weâve got to go play the game. But looking at the numbers on whatâs happened around the league. Itâs a hard game and weâve got to go get ready for the team thatâs been prepping for us for a week. So, it is what it is. We had it with Georgia and now this will be our second time doing it.”
Leading the Bulldogs is freshman guard Josh Hubbard. The 5-foot-10, 185-pound Mississippi native is averaging 14.8 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game while shooting 38.4% from the field and 35.5% from three.
KenPom ranks Mississippi State 31st overall nationally and the Bulldogs are also top 10 in defensive efficiency (94.0).
Here’s details on how to watch/listen, betting lines courtesy of BetSaracen and HawgBeat’s pick:

HAWGBEAT’S PICK: UNDER 145.5 (-110)
It’s no secret that Arkansas’ biggest struggle comes on the offensive side of the ball. Pair that against a Mississippi State defense that ranks seventh in the country in defensive efficiency according to KenPom, and it won’t be a fun night for the Hoop Hogs on the road.
The total for Mississippi State’s last three home games have gone under the 145.5 point mark, including 123 against Vanderbilt, 122 against Auburn and 137 against Georgia. Unless Arkansas comes out firing on all cylinders, I don’t see why this trend will change.
Mississippi State has had an entire week to prepare for the Hogs since its last game and I expect the Bulldogs to take advantage with a dominant defensive performance to secure the under in Saturday’s SEC tilt.

LITTLE ROCK (KATV) — An Arkansas businesswoman who pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud is seeking a downward departure in her sentencing.
Chandler Wilson Carroll’s defense is arguing that while she acknowledges the offense is serious, other factors indicate that a lighter sentencing may be appropriate in this case.
Carroll’s offence level under the guidelines is 20, and her criminal history category is 1.
The defense cited a multitude of reasons, including her family history, mental illness history, lack of criminal history, and being a mother to small children.
The defense argued that under United States v. Chase, United States v. Lamoreaux, and United States v. Davis, she could qualify for a downward variance or departure.
The defendant underwent extensive mental health treatment after a suicide attempt in July 2025. Carroll was prescribed numerous medications and sought intensive treatment at a psychiatric facility in Little Rock.
She is currently anticipating entering into a trauma-centered treatment program, which will take a year to complete.
The defense also argues that the defendant’s need to care for her children is a proper factor to consider in determining this sentence.
Carroll is currently undergoing a divorce from her husband, who she claims was physically abusive to one of the children in August of 2025.
A separate investigation into that incident is ongoing.
The husband no longer lives at the house and Carroll does not want her husband to have custody of the children if she is incarcerated. However, her mother, is disabled and cannot assume care of the children. The defense argues that the children are at a age in particular need of their mother.
Lastly, the defense cited Carroll’s lack of criminal history, and that she is no danger to the public of committing further crimes. They also cite her need for long-term mental health treatment, of which the quality may not be as high in a prison system.
The defense asks for a probationary period, accompanied by a fine or community service in lieu of prison time.
According to federal court documents obtained in April 2024, Carroll was facing 4 counts of wire fraud and 4 counts of money laundering for abusing the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL). Carroll was an owner of 3 different businesses involved in the alleged fraud: WilCarr Ventures, Wilson Carroll Research Services (WCRS), and Brook Haven Lodge.
In total, Carroll was awarded a little over $2 million in small business loans.
