This is Mike Anderson’s sixth season as the Arkansas basketball coach and they’re making their second NCAA Tournament appearance since he arrived.

The Razorbacks entered the SEC Tournament as the 3-seed and lost in the tournament finals to Kentucky 82-65.

The last time the Razorbacks made a run to the final four was 1995. Nolan Richardson led them to the national championship game before losing to UCLA. In 1994 the Razorbacks won the whole thing by beating Duke in the national championship game.

This time it’s going to be a little more difficult. Not only do the Razorbacks enter the tournament as a 9-seed, they’ll have to go through the South Region, by far the most difficult of the four regions. But its that time of the year and who knows what could happen.

Here’s what it’ll take for Arkansas to make a run to the Final Four this season.
