Challenges for Arkansas
Simply put, Georgia has the biggest and badest defensive line in college football allowing a little over 60 yards per game on average. They are not ranked No. 1 in rushing defense simply because teams in weaker FBS conferences happen to have better numbers. This will be an interesting matchup though. Arkansas has the eighth-best rushing attack in the FBS (261 ypg). Something has got to give. Can Sam Pittman’s team pull off a stunner in Athens in his second year with the Razorbacks? We will find out on Saturday.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 11:00 AM CT (12:00 PM ET). You can watch this SEC football game on the ESPN Network.
