FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. u2015 Auburn knows the shortest distance from here to there involves Peyton Barber.

Barber rushed for four touchdowns Saturday to bring his TD total in the last three games to a dizzying 11, though none of that stopped Arkansas from winning 54-46 in a four-overtime game in Razorback Stadium.

Barber scored on a 1-yard run in regulation and on runs of 2, 2 and 1 yard in overtime. He finished with 120 yards on a yeoman 37 carries.

Barber has 770 yards rushing through seven games, putting him well on his way to become the third different Auburn running back to pass the 1,000-yard mark in three consecutive seasons.
