AUBURN, Ala. (AP) - Michael Smith rushed for 176 yards and scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 63-yard run in the fourth quarter and Arkansas mounted two late defensive stands for a 25-22 win over No. 20 Auburn on Saturday.

The Razorbacks (3-3, 1-2 Southeastern Conference) forced Auburn’s Kodi Burns into three straight incompletions from their 5-yard line to halt one drive. Then Matt Harris made a diving interception with 29 seconds left on the Tigers’ last chance.

Casey Dick rushed for a touchdown and caught a scoring pass from receiver Joe Adams for the Razorbacks, who had lost their last three games by a collective 139-31. The 19-point underdogs outgained Auburn 416-193 in the return of former Tigers offensive coordinator Bobby Petrino as Razorbacks coach.
