Maryam Dauda wasn’t in the mood to deal with another SEC defeat on Sunday.
A Coleman Coliseum crowd of 2,477 saw Dauda set an Arkansas record with 10 blocks in a 77-59 victory for the Razorbacks.

Dauda played all 40 minutes and also contributed 8 points, 12 rebounds and five assists to the cause.
Samara Spencer and Makayla Daniels combined for 47 of Arkansas’ 77 points, and actually outscored the entire Crimson Tide roster by themselves in the second half.
Taliah Scott, meanwhile, missed her third consecutive game with her back issues.
Arkansas outrebounded Alabama 52-35 and never trailed after the first quarter ended.
The Razorbacks will have an oddly scheduled week off, not playing again until next Sunday when they travel to Baton Rouge, Louisiana to face defending national champion LSU.
