FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. � Bud Walton Arena has not been kind to Missouri.

The Tigers have won only once in 10 attempts at the 23-year-old building. The tone was set on their first visit, a 52-point shellacking by the Razorbacks in 1993.

Arkansas added another bad memory to the catalog Saturday. The Tigers� hapless first half set the tone in a 92-73 loss Saturday.

Missouri (5-11, 0-4 Southeastern Conference) has lost eight in a row and 28 straight on the road.

Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson�s frenzied style fired on all cylinders in the first half. The Razorbacks (13-4, 2-3) scored 17 fast-break points and 24 points in the paint before the break, forcing eight Missouri turnovers while allowing only 10 made field goals.

�The pace was up and down the floor,� Anderson said. �That�s music to our ears.�

Despite Arkansas� reputation for breakneck speed, Missouri was still caught off guard by the first-half pressure.

�They seemed a little quicker and faster than they looked on video,� Missouri Coach Kim Anderson said. �I know they�re quick and fast anyway, but I thought they played with a great burst of urgency. I think they probably felt some urgency, and they certainly displayed that.�

The win gave the Razorbacks a much-needed conference win after losing two straight, which included a 84-78 loss to Mississippi State on Tuesday at home.

�If you watched our team today, they had a lot more fun and they played with confidence,� Mike Anderson said. �They played for each other. We made the extra pass.�

The Tigers, meanwhile, lacked energy and focus before the break. There was little defensive resistance as Arkansas compiled a back-breaking 12-0 run that pushed the score to 44-23.

The Razorbacks� 92 points were the most Missouri has allowed this season. Arkansas averaged 1.24 points per possession.

It didn�t take long for the Tigers to lose sight of their pregame focus to send extra players back to stop fast breaks. Kim Anderson said the defensive effort in the first half �wasn�t very good.�

�They scored 50 points in the first half,� he said. �We went into the game with a plan, and I don�t think we followed the plan in the first half.�

Missouri came to rue early foul trouble with Jordan Barnett and Russell Woods. Woods picked up two fouls in the game�s first 75 seconds, and Barnett was whistled for his second foul with 16:02 left in the first half.

With Woods on the bench, the Tigers� already-thin frontcourt became a bigger weakness. Kim Anderson said at one point the 6-foot-4, 208-pound Cullen VanLeer was forced to match up with SEC Preseason Player of the Year Moses Kingsley, who is 6-10 and 230 pounds.

Even when he was on the floor, Barnett�s fouls took away his edge.

�When he put me back in in the first half when I had two fouls, I was too worried on not fouling and not trying to get a charge or something like that,� he said. �I can�t do that. I gotta stay aggressive regardless of the situation. Those two fouls, they get to me and sort of messed my head up.�

Missouri prevented an onslaught with a better second half, but it was far from enough to turn back the tide. The smallest deficit after the break was 11 points.

�Those of you who have followed us, you�ll be amazed we shot 52 percent in the second half,� Kim Anderson said. �I thought we got some good shots.�

�We just decided that we had to play loose. We were down. We didn�t have anything to lose,� Barnett said.

Thirteen Razorbacks played, and five finished with double-digit points. Daryl Macon led all scorers with 17 points on 6-of-11 shooting.

Barnett led the Tigers with 14 points in 25 minutes. He fouled out with 4:29 remaining.

For as bad as Missouri�s history has been at Bud Walton Arena, it was the site of the Tigers� last road win, on Jan. 28, 2014. Missouri will get another shot to break its streak of road futility Wednesday at Alabama.
