Smith has been one of the best freshmen in the country already this season and came into Saturday’s game with a mild ankle injury. However, he was cleared to play against the Bears and dropped 5 points in 20 minutes of play.
The Razorbacks are 10-1 on the season, with its only loss coming to Creighton in mid-November.
