FAYETTEVILLE — The University of Arkansas got to its bread and butter — drawing fouls and getting to the free-throw line — to overcome a massacre on the glass and hold off No. 1 Auburn for an 80-76 win in overtime on Tuesday.
The Razorbacks made just one field goal in the five-minute overtime, but it was a big one; JD Notae’s three-pointer from the right wing at the 3:06 mark over Jabari Smith for a 69-68 Arkansas lead.
Arkansas made 11 of 14 free throws in the extra period after the game went into overtime at 66-66.
