The Texas Longhorns got hit with an SEC-sized slap in the face on Wednesday at the Moody Center in a rivalry rematch with the Arkansas Razorbacks. Arkansas guard Johnell Davis finished with a team-high 24 points including a dagger 3-pointer in the closing minutes to lead the Razorbacks to a 78-70 win over Texas in the first meeting between the old rivals since 2018.

The Arkansas men’s basketball team survived Texas’ late comeback effort, seeing its 23-point lead dissipate but held on for a 78-70 victory in the capital of the Lone Star State. The Razorbacks held on despite foul troubles, with Adou Thiero fouling out and Billy Richmond and Karter Knox both ending with 4 fouls.
