Vanderbilt went a stretch of 17:35 without a field goal, as Arkansas throttled the Commodores on their Senior Night by an 84-48 score at Nashville's Memorial Gymnasium on Wednesday evening.

Arkansas forward Daniel Gafford (20 points) and guard Mason Jones (16) led the way for the Razorbacks. Guard Aaron Nesmith led Vandy with 11.

Razorback guard Isaiah Joe (12) broke the all-time Razorback record for 3-point field goals. Joe's third of the game came with 6:27 left, giving him 103 for the season, breaking current UA assistant Scotty Thurman's mark. He would finish 4-for-6 from long range.

The Commodores extended their school-record losing streak to 18 games.

Vanderbilt missed its last 16 shots from the field in the first half -- a span of 13:17 -- and turned it over 10 times.

Somehow, the Commodores trailed 29-25 at the break. But it wouldn't be a contest much longer.

A Gafford dunk with 17:09 left gave Arkansas its biggest lead to that point at 38-25, prompting a Vandy timeout.

Finally, a Gafford goaltend with 15:42 snapped VU's field-goal drought. The Commodores finally got one without assistance with 12:49 left on Nesmith's breakaway layup.

Arkansas grabbed its first 20-point advantage at 50-29 on guard Reggie Chaney's layup with 10:47 left in the game.

A 3 by guard Maxwell Evans with 13:17 left in the first half put Vandy up 15-5. But the Razorbacks got in the bonus with 6:14 left, and Jones gave Arkansas its first lead at 21-19 with the ensuing free throws.

Barely a minute later, Jones stripped Vanderbilt forward Simi Shittu and laid it in on the other end, putting the Razorbacks up by seven.

It was the final home game for Vanderbilt senior Joe Toye.

Vanderbilt, playing without injured starting forward Matt Ryan, is down to eight active scholarship players.

The problem compounded when Nesmith picked up a third foul with 36 seconds left.

The Commodores finished under .500 (8-10) at Memorial Gym for the first time in school history. The building opened for the 1953-54 season.
