Instead, the Razorbacks, who host Texas-San Antonio at 1 p.m. Saturday, locked the perimeter down and came back to win at Watsco Center. The Hurricanes, who looked primed to snap a four-game skid, hit 1 of their final 7 three-point shots in the loss.

The article from WholeHogSports discusses Arkansas men's basketball team's impressive performance in their recent victory over Miami, focusing particularly on their improved three-point defense. Arkansas managed to limit Miami to just 19.2% shooting from beyond the arc, a significant drop from Miami's season average of 38.5%. This defensive prowess was highlighted by the efforts of players like Tramon Mark, who was instrumental in defending Miami's key shooters. The article notes that Arkansas's strategy involved aggressive closeouts, effective rotations, and a focus on contesting shots, which not only disrupted Miami's offensive rhythm but also forced them into taking lower percentage shots. This defensive strategy was a marked improvement from previous games, showcasing Arkansas's ability to adapt and execute under pressure, contributing significantly to their win.
