As great as the game against Mississippi State started last week, Arkansas has gotten off to a disastrous start.

After a three-and-out, the Hogs held Ole Miss with a goal-line stand, but three plays later, TJ Dottery strip-sacked Taylen Green in the endzone, and the Rebs fell on the ball for the first points of the game. Arkansas responded by driving down the field, only to lose Taylen Green to an injury. The Hogs got three points out of the drive, but if Green can't return, it might be a long day in Fayetteville.

Arkansas is also playing sloppy. Through the first 15 minutes, the Razorbacks have six penalties for 55 yards, including four presnap infractions. For context, Arkansas has only picked up 65 yards on offense. Ole Miss has two of their own, but nothing that's hindered the explosive offense.
