Sweating another out

FAYETTEVILLE -- The Arkansas Razorbacks keep winning the close ones.

It happened again Saturday when the Razorbacks beat Oklahoma State 66-65 in the Big 12-SEC Challenge before an announced crowd of 18,057 fans at Walton Arena.

The Cowboys had two shots at the basket in the final five seconds, but Jeffrey Carroll missed, then Mitchell Solomon couldn't finish on a stick-back attempt.

"We were just fortunate right there," Razorbacks Coach Mike Anderson said. "They had two tips at the ball and I don't know if there was some angel up there, but it just kept that ball out of the basket and we were able to get the win.
