BATON ROUGE -- The Arkansas basketball team got to enjoy its flight home Saturday night.

It's been a while.

The Razorbacks were able to celebrate after rallying from a 14-point deficit to beat LSU 78-70 in the Maravich Assembly Center in front of an announced crowd of 7,132.

It was a much-needed victory for Arkansas (18-7, 7-5 SEC) after the Razorbacks had lost back-to-back games to Missouri and Vanderbilt.

Arkansas lost its previous two Saturday games at Oklahoma State 99-71 in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge and at Missouri 83-78 when the Tigers broke their 13-game losing streak.
