Ahem.

Mason Jones. He got good at basketball, and his game-winning three with .01 seconds left to beat Georgia Tech will be a big part of his legacy. Just when it felt like the Hogs couldn’t buy a basket, Jones deposited a bank shot to give Arkansas a 62-61 overtime win on the road, their first road win over a non-conference power opponent since 2004.

The Razorbacks were finally tested after five blow-outs to begin the season. To this point, they hadn’t had to play a full forty minutes. But on their first road trip, the Yellow Jackets made sure they put in that much and more.
