How to Watch, BetSaracen Odds: Arkansas vs. Oakland
Arkansas basketball (10-2, 0-0 SEC) has one game remaining in the 2024 calendar year and will host the Oakland Golden Grizzlies (4-9, 1-2 Horizon) on Monday at Bud Walton Arena.
The Razorbacks are on a five-game win streak and most recently took down the North Carolina A&T Aggies, 92-67, last Saturday. The team then took time off for Christmas break and returned to practice Dec. 26 to prepare for the final non-conference game of the season.
The Hogs and Golden Grizzlies have met on two separate occasions, and Arkansas won both times. The first matchup came in 2006, when the Razorbacks took a 71-57 victory. The next meeting came in 2011, a game Arkansas won 91-68.
Oakland is led by head coach Greg Kampe, who is the longest-tenured active college basketball coach and has been with the program for 41 years. He has made four trips to the NCAA Division I Tournament in that time and also had four trips to the NCAA Division II Tournament before Oakland made the jump to Division I.
Arkansas head coach John Calipari has his own recent history with Oakland as well. The Golden Grizzlies defeated the Kentucky Wildcats — led at the time by Calipari — 80-76 in the first round of last year’s NCAA Tournament behind 32 points from Jack Gohlke, who hit 10 threes to win the game.

Here’s a recent college basketball story via the Associated Press:
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Trevon Brazile scored a career-high 26 points on 9-of-11 shooting from the field to lead No. 14 Arkansas to a 108-80 victory over Queens on Tuesday night.
Arkansas (9-2) was never in trouble, taking a 24-point lead into halftime behind 60% shooting from the floor. Brazile had 18 points in the opening 20 minutes. Darius Acuff Jr., who finished with 23 points and 10 assists, scored 16 in the first half.
Brazile went 5 for 7 from 3-point range and Arkansas was 14 of 28 compared to 6 for 25 for the Royals (5-7). The Razorbacks also outscored Queens 32-14 on fast-break points.
Atlantic Sun preseason player of the year Chris Ashby entered averaging 13 points per game but was limited to just two on 1-of-9 shooting, including 0 for 7 from 3-point distance. The Royals were led by Nasir Mann, who had 16 points.
Four other Arkansas players joined Brazile and Acuff in double figures. Billy Richmond III scored 15 points off the bench, Nick Pringle added 14, Karter Knox had 11 and D.J. Wagner provided 10.
The win was Arkansas’ fourth in a row since losing to then-No. 4 Duke on Thanksgiving.
