Challenges for Arkansas
Arkansas sits next to last in the SEC in rushing at 163 yards per game. Chad Morris is installing a wide open passing attack. It’s going to take time to get that going. The Hogs sit at ninth in the league in passing. It’s important to do something well to have a chance at winning. The Razorbacks jump out of the pot and into the frying pan this week, taking on the Aggies in Arlington. A&M is going to be angry after the way they were beaten by Bama. You could say the same thing about Arkansas though, they are surely sick of losing but they need to start improving. Get better in practice and play better on Saturday.
Challenges for Texas A&M
Texas A&M is off to a 2-2 start. Keep in mind though that the two losses came against arguably two of the best teams in the country. The Aggies need to keep this in mind before they get downcast over the .500 start. Less rougher waters are ahead but the SEC West juggernaut is probably the toughest division in college football. Texas A&M is a big part of the reason for that division’s lofty reputation.
Saturday’s game kicks off at 11 am CT and can be seen on ESPN.
