25 for Council

Arkansas junior guard Ricky Council led the Razorbacks with 25 points Saturday when he hit 10 of 17 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws in 39 minutes.

“I thought he did a great job of finding seams in the zone, especially in the second half,” Razorbacks Coach Eric Musselman said. “We kind of moved him around in different areas.

“I think our zone offense is drastically improved.”

It was Council’s fourth game this season with 25 or more points. He had 27 points against Troy, 26 against Oklahoma and 25 against Missouri.
