Junior guard Mason Jones became the first Arkansas players ever to post three consecutive 30-point games but it wasn’t enough as No. McCormick’s driving layup with 2:15 on the clock capped a 12-1 run that tied the game at 66-66 with 2:15 left. His 3-pointer with 1:43 remaining gave the Tigers a 69-68 lead that stood until Jones’ free throw with 36.0 seconds remaining in regulation. Arkansas was without sophomore guard Isaiah Joe, who had knee surgery earlier in the day. He is averaging 16.0 points and 4.3 rebounds a game and is second in the team in steals with 31.
