As great of a start Arkansas had against Oklahoma State last week, the Hogs couldn't have started any worse in their first quarter of play in Fayetteville.
The Blazers took the ball first and marched down the field. Arkansas looked lethargic and uninspired, and UAB gashed them again and again. Luckily, they held UAB to a field goal, but the offense didn't look much better. On the first drive, Green threw an interception that UAB nearly brought to the house. Two plays later, the Blazers were in the endzone. Taylen Green has been incredibly inconsistent, going 0-5 with the only completed pass going to the other team.
Arkansas got a break but did nothing with it. UBA tried to surprise the Hogs with an onside kick, but 29-year-old freshman Monte Harrison grabbed the ball before it went ten yards and returned it for a large gain. But of course, Arkansas only managed a field goal for Harrison's troubles.
After holding the country's best running back to less than 50 rushing yards, Arkansas has let UAB tack on 73 through the first 15 minutes. On the other hand, Arkansas had 72 yards total. The Oklahoma State loss is obviously still weighing on Arkansas, and if they can't quickly get their minds right, the Hogs will let the Pokes beat them twice.
