FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Anthlon Bell scored a career-high 23 points as Arkansas' surge toward an NCAA tournament berth continued with a resounding 110-80 win over Ole Miss on Wednesday night.
The Razorbacks (21-9, 10-7 Southeastern Conference) have now won six straight games — their longest streak in regular-season conference play since the 1997-98 season — and eight of nine overall since opening SEC play 2-6.
Bell and Mardracus Wade, who finished with a season-high 18 points, combined to hit 12 of Arkansas' 17 3-pointers — matching the school's mark for most made in an SEC game.
The Razorbacks led by as many as 43 points in the second half.
Marshall Henderson had 15 points to lead the Rebels (17-13, 8-9), who have lost six of seven games, while Jarvis Summers added 11.
