Arkansas Football: 3 bold predictions vs. Ole Miss in Week 6

A week ago, Arkansas football had its worst performance of the Sam Pittman era. The Razorbacks were shut out 37-0 by Georgia and it was an even worse showing than the first game of the 2020 season when they actually led the Bulldogs at halftime.

Now Pittman and Co. get a shot to rebound against Ole Miss in Week 6.

Matt Corral and the Rebels have one of the best offenses in college football and they’re hoping for some revenge after losing 33-21 to the Razorbacks in 2020. Will they get it?

Let’s dive into some bold predictions for Saturday’s game.

3. Treylon Burks finishes with over 100 receiving yards

Before getting shut down by Georgia last weekend, Treylon Burks was in the middle of a hot streak, recording back-to-back 100-yard games.

In fact, he had three catches for 127 yards and a touchdown against Georgia Southern and he followed that up with six catches for 167 yards and a score against Texas A&M. Simply put, he looked like a budding superstar and everyone was waiting for this type of breakout from the junior wideout.

Burks was held to just three catches and 10 yards last weekend and you know he’s just itching to bounce back and get on track against the Rebels.

I see him getting over the 100-yard mark yet again with another touchdown. Three 100-yard receiving performances in four games? Not too shabby.
