Desi Sills scored 22 points -- 14 in the second half -- and Jalen Tate added 14 as Arkansas rallied from a 19-point, first-half deficit for a 75-73 victory over Auburn on Wednesday night in Fayetteville, Ark.

With Arkansas up 74-73, the Razorbacks' Jaylin Williams and Davonte Davis smothered a layup attempt by Sharife Cooper with 2.6 seconds left. Moses Moody's free throw for the Hogs with 2.4 seconds remaining ended the scoring.

The Razorbacks (11-4, 3-4 Southeastern Conference) came out on fire to start the second half, outscoring the Tigers 16-4 in the first five minutes to tie the game at 47-47. The Hogs took their first lead of the game 49-47 on Williams' dunk at the 13:26 mark.

Arkansas worked its way to a 62-56 lead on Justin Smith's dunk with 7:07 remaining and remained in front after that. The Razorbacks were up 74-66 after Sills' free throws with 2:40 remaining before the Tigers made a late surge.

It was a one-point game when Arkansas was called for a shot-clock violation with 25.5 seconds left, but Cooper couldn't convert.

Cooper led the Tigers (8-7, 2-5) with 25 points while JT Thor added 12 points.

After shooting 16 of 27 (59.3 percent) from the field in the first half, the Tigers went completely cold in the second. They made only 9 of 31 second-half attempts (29 percent).

The first half was all Auburn.

However, the Hogs cut the deficit to 41-31 by following an 0-for-8 shooting drought with nine baskets in their next 10 attempts. Cooper's free throws with 13.1 seconds left sent the Tigers to the locker room with a 43-31 advantage.
