FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas men's basketball team led Texas A&M for more than 30 minutes Saturday night, but it wasn't until the end that the Razorbacks were able to put the Aggies away.
The Razorbacks pulled away late to beat the Aggies 69-59 before an announced crowd of 19,200 at Walton Arena.
Three consecutive turnovers by Texas A&M helped Arkansas push its lead to 66-56 on a stick-back basket by Mason Jones, a driving basket by Jalen Harris and a three-pointer by Isaiah Joe.
After the Aggies pulled within 66-59 on Andre Gordon's three-pointer with 3:36 left, the Razorbacks (12-1, 1-0 SEC) didn't allow Texas A&M (6-6, 0-1) to score again.
