BJ Young hit a layup with 5 seconds left and then missed a 3-pointer at the buzzer for Arkansas (12-8, 3-4) after Randolph made two free throws.
Young, who led Arkansas with 14 points, managed to get a shot off with a behind-the-back dribble but overshot the rim.
Lacey had six rebounds but also committed seven of Alabama's season-high 21 turnovers. Trevor Releford added 12 points and Nick Jacobs had 10 for Alabama.
Marshawn Powell had 11 points for the Razorbacks before fouling out.
