Arizona Crushes Arkansas, Advances to Elite Eight

0:00On March 27th, Arizona crushed Arkansas in the sweet 16 round of the NCAA tournament on Thursday at the SAP Center in San Jose. The number one seeded Wildcats dominated from start to finish, shooting nearly 64% from the field, the best mark in a sweet 16 game. Since 2005, Arkansas kept pace somewhat with 48% shooting, but it wasn't close enough against Arizona's hot hand. The Razerbacks never grabbed the lead and trailed by as much as 25 points at one stretch. Wildcats coach Tommy Lloyd saw six players hit double figures in scoring, topping out with 23 points from Bradenburys and 21.
