AT A GLANCE
Arkansas will get its final tune up before the regular season gets underway when it hosts Pittsburg State on Thursday night at Bud Walton Arena. In their first exhibition game just under a week ago, the Razorbacks used a 61-point second half and six players in double figures to turn away Central Oklahoma.

Out of the six players in double figures, the top three came off the bench as junior Michael Qualls scored 17 points, junior Jacorey Williams poured in 16 and redshirt junior Keaton Miles added 12 points in his debut after transferring from West Virginia. The trio led Arkansas, which ranked third in the nation in bench points last year, to 71 points off the pine, good for a 28-point advantage.
