A second half collapse lost Georgia basketball its third straight game for the first time this season, a 68-65 defeat at Arkansas.

The Bulldogs (14-5, 2-4 SEC) squandered a 38-26 halftime lead, struggling to stop a physical Razorback offense that flooded the foul line.

That’s where Arkansas (12-7, 1-6) won the game, as Adou Thiero sank a go-ahead free throw to take the lead for good.
