Darius Acuff Jr. delivered a career-high 49 points in Arkansas' 117-115 double-overtime loss to Alabama, despite playing through a boot injury. The freshman guard carried the Razorbacks' injury-depleted squad, making 16 of 27 shots and 6 of 10 from beyond the arc.

Though Arkansas led by 14 points twice, they couldn't secure victory, with Acuff's final floater missing the mark. His performance marked the most points by an Arkansas freshman against a Top 25 team and the highest in an SEC game by a Razorback.
