FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Anthlon Bell and Dusty Hannahs combined to hit 13 of Arkansas' season-high 16 3-pointers as the Razorbacks won their second straight game with an 82-68 victory over Mississippi State on Saturday.

Hannahs finished with a career-high 26 points and Bell 25 for Arkansas (8-7, 2-1 Southeastern Conference), which was 16 of 24 overall from behind the arc.

Hannahs led the way from outside, hitting a career-high eight 3-pointers and topping his previous best of seven -- coming in 2014 while playing at Texas Tech.

Bell was 5 of 7 on 3-pointers, and Moses Kingsley added 13 points for the Razorbacks.

Craig Sword led the Bulldogs (7-7, 0-2) with 21 points, while Gavin Ware added 14.

After leading 36-32 at halftime, Arkansas opened the second half on a 12-2 run to push its lead to 48-34 -- capped by a 3-pointer by Bell.

It was Bell's fourth 3-pointer of the game, marking the first time in his career the senior has hit at least four from behind the arc in three straight games. He finished 9 of 17 from the field overall and scored in double figures for the 14th time in 15 games this season.

Mississippi State closed Arkansas' lead to 62-59 after an inside basket by Sword, but the Razorbacks closed the game on a 20-9 run to secure their second straight SEC win -- and it was Hannahs who put the finishing touches on the game.

The junior put Arkansas up 65-59 with his sixth 3-pointer of the game, and he followed by banking one in to put the Razorbacks up 74-63. Following his career-best eighth 3-pointer, putting Arkansas up 80-63, Hannahs waved his arms to the crowd as he ran back down the court.

The 3-point shooting percentage (66.7 percent) matches Arkansas' school record, and the 16 made 3-pointers are tied for the ninth most in school history.

Bell had 15 points in the first half, going 6 of 10 from the field and 3 of 4 from behind the arc. Hannahs added three 3-pointers, following Bell's last of the half with one of his own to put Arkansas up 32-27.
