A pair of lengthy second-half runs and a season-high 27 points by Cam Carter propelled Associate Head Coach David Patrick and the LSU Tigers to a 78-74 victory over Arkansas at the Maravich Center to earn its first Southeastern Conference victory in 2025.
LSU pieced together a 14-3 run between the end of the first half and the beginning of the second to gain its first lead and a 20-3 run to create space late in the second half to secure the victory.
In snapping its three-game losing streak, LSU picked up its third consecutive win at home in the series against Arkansas and improved to 22-13 when playing the Razorbacks at the PMAC. The Tigers are now 10-1 in home games this season.
LSU improves to 12-5 on the season and 1-3 in league play, and Arkansas falls to 11-6 and 0-4 in the SEC this season. The Tigers hit the road for two of the final three games of the month, beginning with a 7:30 p.m. tip-off Saturday at Texas A&M inside Reed Arena.
