High Point vs. Arkansas odds & predictions
High Point vs. Arkansas prediction: High Point +11.5
"High Point had great preparation for Arkansas by playing Wisconsin, as the two teams similarly run offense through their standout backcourt duos. The most impressive thing about Thursday’s win was that Wisconsin was previously 21-2 when shooting at least 33.3% from beyond the arc, and the Badgers shot 39.1%." - via Mike Spector
