Arkansas had an Elite Eight berth in the palm of its hand. Then an all-time collapse opened the door, and Texas Tech took full advantage.
It really was “Fried Calipari” on Thursday night. The Arkansas Razorbacks blew a 13-point lead to Texas Tech in the final five minutes as their offense bottled up and they struggled to keep the Red Raiders off the offensive boards in the Sweet 16 showdown.
The third-seeded Red Raiders (28-8) earned the matchup against the Gators (33-4) by erasing a 13-point deficit in the final five minutes of regulation before winning 85-83 in overtime in the Sweet 16.
A late-season zinger from John Calipari has become the mantra for Arkansas basketball's March Madness turnaround.
