This season Arkansas is 10-3 in games decided by less than 10 points (chose < 10 points because sometimes very close games end up with some breathing room thanks to the free throw game).
So, compared that to Arkansas' last two NCAA Tournament teams. The 2007-08 team (9 seed) was 7-7 in such games, 2006-07 team (12 seed) was 9-7 and the 2005-06 team (8 seed) was 7-8.
So, jump back to the teams with finals appearances: the 1994-95 team was 16-2 in games decided by less than 10 and the 1993-94 team was 9-2.
Interesting.
