FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Auburn won on the road for just the second time this season, hitting three 3-pointers during a 1:21 stretch late in the second half and holding on for a 90-86 victory over Arkansas on Wednesday night in a Southeastern Conference game at Bud Walton Arena.

Freshman guard Bryce Brown hit his ninth 3-pointer of the game with 1:11 left and Auburn made four free throws in the final 30 seconds to hang on for the victory, its first in nine meetings against Arkansas.

The Razorbacks (12-14, 5-8) opened the second half with a 15-2 run and led by as many as nine points with just more than 12 minutes remaining before the Tigers rallied.

Brown led Auburn with 27 points, senior forward Tyler Harris had 19, Lang scored 17 and senior forward Cinmeon Bowers added 14 points and 10 rebounds.

Senior guard Anthlon Bell led Arkansas with 21 points, junior forward Moses Kingsley had 20 and junior guard Dusty Hannahs chipped in with 18.

The Tigers shot 61 percent from the field, including 65 percent from 3-point range.
