SEC Football: Takeaways for Each Team from Week 11
Arkansas Razorbacks
Arkansas 10 – LSU 38
Arkansas has to be the most maddeningly inconsistent SEC football team this year. Actually, the Razorbacks have been insanely inconsistent throughout the entirety of Bielema’s tenure with the Hogs.
Austin Allen was again consistent, but threw two interceptions to hurt his day. Rawleigh Williams wasn’t able to contribute a ton, though, and the rushing attack was mediocre.
The defense let the Razorbacks down as well. Fournette and Guide ran for 350 yards and 5 touchdowns between them. It is safe to say that the Tigers rushed at will against Arkansas.
Impact Moving Forward
-Big loss of momentum
This Razorbacks team absolutely annihilated SEC East favorite Florida last week and shut down their run game. It looked like the Razorbacks had finally figured out their identity.
Nope. LSU completely destroyed their run defense, and Arkansas couldn’t push their rushing attack.
There is good news ahead, though. Arkansas still has Mississippi State and Missouri on the schedule. Both of those games should be victories and put Arkansas at 8 wins for the season. While this momentum loss stings, Arkansas shouldn’t have a problem rebuilding it.
