ARLINGTON, Texas -- The last yard was the longest yard for No. 17 Arkansas.
And the defense of those last few inches proved decisive for No. 10 Texas A&M on Saturday.
The Aggies made three goal-line stands at their 1-yard line, including an Arkansas fumble at the 1, en route to a 45-24 victory before a crowd of 67,751 at AT&T Stadium.
Texas A&M (4-0, 2-0 SEC) won its fifth consecutive game in the series, but this time it did not need overtime as it had in the past two games here.
Arkansas (3-1, 0-1 SEC) lost its sixth consecutive SEC opener and was denied its first unbeaten September since 2003.
