Arkansas could be up by three scores, but the Hogs can't finish drives. Instead, it went into the locker room up 3-0.
If there's a record for destroying your opponent in the stat book but failing on the scoreboard, Arkansas has to hold it. In every facet of the game, the Razorbacks are dominating Tennessee. The Vols have 76 total yards after averaging 515 yards a game. It's the worst half of football in the Heupel era. But probably the most impressive stat is the time of possession.
Arkansas held on to the ball for 20 minutes and 42 seconds. Part of that involves an unrelenting defensive effort from the Hogs. But the offense has played as cleanly as ever until they're deep in Tennessee territory. The Razorbacks have 221 yards of offense, driven mainly through the air with 146 yards. Taylen Green is 12-18 for 67 percent, thanks to an improved offensive line performance.
Tennessee gets the ball back to start the second half. We'll see if the Hogs keep the effort on defense, but the offense needs to finish for any hope of winning.
