Khris Middleton scored a career-high 31 points and Texas A&M made its free throws in overtime to record a 71-60 victory over Arkansas.

Middleton finished 10 of 16 from the field and added three steals and three assists.

The Razorbacks (7-2) missed a big opportunity for the signature win they coveted against the Aggies, who improved to 10-1.

Arkansas used a 20-5 run bridging halftime to turn a five-point deficit into a 45-35 lead.

But the Razorbacks went cold and Middleton heated up, scoring 14 points over the final 17 minutes to get A&M into overtime.

The Aggies' David Loubeau scored the only hoop in the extra session, but A&M went 9 of 10 from the line while shutting down the Razorbacks.

The Aggies have yet to yield more than 65 points in a game yet this season.

Rotnei Clarke led Arkansas with 14 points.
