No. 16 Arkansas wiped out a 12-point fourth-quarter deficit, but Jordan Nixon scored late for the second time this season to help No. 7 Texas A&M claim a hard-fought 69-67 SEC victory on Sunday afternoon in Reed Arena in College Station, Texas.
Nixon’s driving layup gave the Aggies a two-point lead, before the Texas A&M defense clamped down and forced an off-balance three-point attempt by Arkansas’ Amber Ramirez in the waning seconds.
Ramirez’s shot didn’t hit the rim and went out of bounds with 0.9 seconds left. After an official review, the Aggies (18-1, 9-1 SEC) got the ball back and ran out the clock to close out their second last-second victory this year over the Razorbacks.
