2. Dre Greenlaw is a blessing to a struggling Razorback team.

Arkansas isn’t exactly a team that the SEC wants to claim at this point. With losses to North Texas and Colorado State, the Razorbacks are kind of like the ugly stepchild of the conference. However, linebacker Dre Greenlaw is a blessing for this team and should be treated as such.

Before I get into his on the field impact, enjoy this story of his recent adoption. It is just the heartwarming thing you need to hear if you’re an Arkansas fan broken up about what just happened to you and your team. This story will intercept your heart, you know just like Donovan Wilson intercepted your hopes and dreams of beating the Aggies for the first time in forever.

This senior is everything good about the Arkansas Razorback football program. He had two interceptions on the day against a streaky Kellen Mond, keeping his team in this game to a point that many didn’t think would happen. Greenlaw has been out with an injury for the start of the season and when he isn’t on the field, everything changes for this team.

Simply put, Dre Greenlaw is the glue that holds the Razorback team together. When he is on the field, when he is being the leader he can be, this team is completely different. When he is gone, they lose to the likes of North Texas and Colorado State.
