The Arkansas basketball team stepped up in competition level Saturday and was decked by the nation’s top-ranked team. Tennessee was dominant during its 76-52 victory over the 23rd-ranked Razorbacks at Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville.

Arkansas struggled to deal with No. 1 Tennessee's defense and superior presence on the glass in a 76-52 to open SEC play. Forward Igor Milicic Jr. nearly outrebounded the Razorbacks by himself in the first half with nine to the Razorbacks' 12 as a team.

Coupled with Saturday losses by Florida and Oklahoma, the No. 1 Vols (14-0, 1-0 SEC) are the final undefeated team in college basketball. Tennessee has won its first 14 games for the first time since the 1922-23 season.
