Challenges for Arkansas
Jaren Hall is a sound, accurate quarterback for the BYU Cougars. Last season he passed for 2,583 yards, 20 touchdowns, and just five interceptions while completing 64 percent of his passes. So far this season he has 129 completions in 188 attempts for 1,558 yards 14 touchdowns and two interceptions. In the 28-20 loss to Notre Dame on Saturday, Hall had 17 attempts for nine completions for 120 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. Arkansas has to respect Hall’s passing ability and keep pressure on him to force errant throws.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 2:30 PM CT (3:30 PM ET). Watch this SEC football game on the ESPN Network.
