FAYETTEVILLE — Daryl Macon scored a game-high 23 points and Arkansas overcame its worst shooting performance of the season to beat old Southwest Conference rival Texas 77-74 at the Lone Star Shootout in Houston.
Macon made all 12 of his free throws, part of a 29 of 31 afternoon at the line for the Hogs, a performance that played a critical role in securing the win given they shot a season-low 36 percent from the floor and didn’t make a field goal in the final six minutes.
Texas made just 19 of 32 at the line and missed nine foul shots in the second half.
