    WBB Hosting Arkansas today

    Hoping for a bounce back. South Dakota game was just a lot of weird, let's close the door on that and get a win today. Looking at what is going on not good in the Big 12, we may need a solid noncon for tourney selection/placement. What happened to the Big 12 being a premiere WBB league?
