Arkansas is making a habit of double-digit road comebacks and stunned Vanderbilt with one Tuesday night in a 71-70 victory at Memorial Gym in Nashville, Tenn.

Commodores forward Joe Toye fouled Razorbacks guard Darryl Macon with 1.6 seconds left, and the junior calmly stepped to the line and nailed all three free throws. Vanderbilt guard Nolan Cressler just missed a heave from beyond half court as time expired, giving Arkansas (16-4, 5-3 SEC) its fourth win in a row in the series.

The Razorbacks, trailing by 15 with 6:02 left after Commodores guard Riley LaChance hit a pair of free throws, made a late charge. Center Moses Kingsley stole the ball on Vanderbilt's next trip, and guard Dusty Hannahs converted a lay-up with 19.9 seconds left, cutting the deficit to two.

On the next trip, Commodores center Luke Kornet turned it over. Hannahs missed a 3-pointer, but Macon retrieved the ball and threw up an off-balance 3 as Toye bumped him.

Hannahs led all scorers with 17, including 14 in the second half. Kingsley had a double-double (10 points, 11 rebounds), guard Jaylen Barford scored 15 and Macon added 12.

LaChance (16) led Vanderbilt in scoring, and forward Jeff Roberson (14 points, 11 rebounds) added his third double-double of the season.

Arkansas battled back from nine down to tie the game at 30 at half. Barford led all scorers with 13 at the break, and Roberson had 11 for the Commodores (9-11, 3-5).
