- The Razorbacks shot 57% from the field, and Darius Acuff went 10-for-15 with 7-for-10 from three as a second-half surge broke the game open.
- Auburn was without leading scorer Keyshawn Hall for disciplinary reasons, while Tahaad Pettiford scored 29 points and KeShawn Murphy added 22.
- D.J. Wagner and Karter Knox returned for limited minutes, and Knox exited late after apparently tweaking his left knee again, a developing situation.
