FAYETTEVILLE — No. 8 Texas A&M trailed much of the fourth quarter, but sophomore Jordan Nixon came up with a pair of big plays late to make sure the Aggies left Bud Walton Arena with a 74-73 win over No. 13 Arkansas on Sunday afternoon.
Nixon hit a driving layup off the glass with 0.4 seconds left and Texas A&M blocked a shot by Chelsea Dungee at the horn to help former Arkansas coach Gary Blair knock off his old team and the Aggies remain undefeated.
There was some controversy between those final two plays, though. Initially, Arkansas tried for a high lob near the basket, but the clock started before the ball was legally touched.
