CHALK TALK The Trojans enter the weekend with a 10-game winning streak at the Jack Stephens Center, and have won eight consecutive Sun Belt Conference home games. ... Texas State has won four of its last five games but has not played since Jan. 2. The Bobcats' weekend set at Arkansas State on Jan. 8-9 was postponed due to covid-19 concerns within the Texas State program. ... UALR 50.4% field goal percentage ranks No. 18 nationally and first in the Sun Belt Conference. ... Allowing 64.5 points per game, the Bobcats come to Little Rock as the second-best scoring defense in the conference.
