Hogs go off the rails

FAYETTEVILLE -- Dusty Hannahs summed up the game succinctly.

"It was just one of those train-wreck-type games," Arkansas' senior guard said.

Vanderbilt was the train and Arkansas the wreck as the Commodores led from start to finish and beat the Razorbacks 72-59 in Walton Arena before an announced crowd of 8,036.

The Commodores jumped out to a 25-4 lead in the first nine minutes -- resulting in boos from some fans -- and never led by fewer than 12 the rest of the game.

It was sweet revenge for Vanderbilt after Arkansas rallied from a 15-point deficit with less than six minutes left and beat the Commodores 71-70 at Memorial Gym two weeks ago.
