GAME RECAP: Arkansas 80, #1 Auburn 76 (OT)

Well, after nineteen straight wins, the Tigers were finally beaten.

Auburn fell at Arkansas 80-76 in an overtime thriller that saw the Tigers fight with a shorthanded team and everything going against them. Bud Walton Arena saw a sellout crowd, the largest in history, and they rushed the floor once the final horn sounded.

JD Notae led the way for Arkansas with 28 points, and the Razorbacks made a living at the free throw line in overtime, going 11-14 from the stripe in the extra period to seal the win. For the Tigers, Jabari Smith buried two late triples to keep Auburn in it, but the Hog effort was too much.
