Challenges for Arkansas
It’s been a nightmare season for the Razorbacks as first year head coach Chad Morris has worked hard to implement a new offensive scheme. Morris has done a great job of keeping things positive and constructive throughout the ordeal. The Hogs will be better next year as they obtain more suitable players for their offense and the players become more well versed in the system. As for this game, it’s not likely that the Hogs could pull off a stunner in Columbia but you never know.
Challenges for Missouri
Missouri pulled off an impressive road win over a decent Tennessee team last Saturday. Mizzou should get a decent bowl with eight wins. They can’t afford to take Arkansas lightly.
Friday’s game kicks off at 1:30 pm CT and can be seen on CBS.
