Oklahoma plays its seventh and final “true” road contest before the start of the conference season.

In the last month, the Sooners lost only to Gonzaga and played only two regular season games at home.

On Tuesday, Oklahoma (6-1) heads to Fayetteville to face Arkansas (3-3), a team that has lost three straight.

What do you expect from Arkansas?

We expect this atmosphere to be even better and certainly the players are very deep. … We expect that to be a big challenge.

What’s working?

We’ve hah some stops at critical times late in the ball game and made shots at critical times late in the ball game. That’s what it comes down to. Je’lon hit the three the other night .. We’re fiding threes at critical times.

Do you credit the three young guys with the success in critical times?
