FINAL Arkansas 94, HPU 88 Darius Acuff Jr.'s sixth 30+ scoring effort of the year sends the Hogs to their fifth sweet 16 in six years. The Panthers' magical and historic season comes to an end, but not before pushing the SEC Tournament champions to the brink and then some.

46.5s 2H Arkansas 90, HPU 83 Darius Acuff Jr. may have called game as he drills a 3-pointer from the left wing to give Arkansas a three possession lead. Hogs are on a 7-0 run over the last 2:06 while HPU has gone 2:33 without scoring. Last gasp for the Panthers here

Trevon Brazile is BACK on the floor for Arkansas out of the timeout

15:45 2H Arkansas 52, HPU 50 Back and forth we go here in Portland to begin the second as both sides are shooting 50% or better in the second frame. Noteworthy for the Hogs- Trevon Brazile was down grabbing at his shoulder. He was slow to get up and is headed to the locker room

46.4s 1H Arkansas 40, HPU 39 An acrobatic in-air layup by Rob Martin brings the Moda Center to its feet and prompts a Calipari timeout. HPU is going blow-for-blow with Arkansas largely without Terry Anderson and has made 5 of its last 7 shots. Crucial close coming here
