Texas A&M outrebounded the Razorbacks 24-9 and closed out the first half on an electric 12-2 run heading into halftime leading 33-30.

Quenton Jackson sealed the game with a lob-pass dunk from Mitchell with 2:13 remaining to extend the lead to 71-60. The Aggies had a “buzz-worthy” season under first-year head coach Buzz Williams.
