Senior guard Jabril Durham forced Vanderbilt's 25th turnover with 5.2 seconds left in overtime and connected on four big free throws in the final seconds as Arkansas held on for a 90-85 victory in a back-and-forth game Tuesday at Bud Walton Arena in Fayetteville, Ark.

The Razorbacks (7-7, 1-1 SEC) outscored the Commodores 13-8 in the extra period after Vanderbilt (8-6, 0-2) hit a big shot to force overtime when junior center Damian Jones caught a full-court length pass and dunked as regulation time expired.

It was a play that was executed to perfection after it appeared Arkansas would win the game when senior guard Anthlon Bell hit a 3-pointer with 2.2 seconds left in regulation, giving the Razorbacks a 77-75 lead.

Arkansas called timeout after Bell's basket, allowing the Commodores to draw up the play that secured the extra five minutes.

Bell finished with 26 points, including six 3-pointers. Junior forward Moses Kingsley added 25 for the Razorbacks, who scored 29 points off 26 Vanderbilt turnovers. Arkansas recorded 15 steals.

Jones matched a career-high with 24 points on 9 of 13 shooting and sophomore guard Matthew Fisher-Davis added 20.

There were 15 lead changes.

The Razorbacks outscored the Commodores 23-12 in the final nine minutes of the first half and led 40-32 at intermission.

Vanderbilt hit six first-half three-pointers, but committed 14 turnovers, leading to 15 Arkansas points.

Jones scored 12 points in the first half for the Commodores on 4-of-5 shooting.
