3 Things That Worry Me About Arkansas

SEC opener on the road, national broadcast, first P4 opponent, & Arky is looking for a signature win. What… me worry?

3 Things That Worry Me About Arkansas

First and foremost, there is no need to worry about Arkansas' history of running backs. While the team currently lacks Darren McFadden and Felix Jones, they still managed to rack up 209 yards on the ground, translating to a meager 2.7 yards per carry. The Bulldog defense has only allowed 173 rushing yards in two games, and this does not include sacks.

Secondly, the Razorbacks are ranked 3rd in time of possession. However, they are trailing in scoring offense and defense, placing them at 114th and 111th respectively. This may suggest that they are proficient in marching down the field, but not putting the ball in the end zone. There are doubts about whether the true Georgia defensive starters have allowed a single score this season, as both opponents have avoided shutouts in the first half.

Despite this, both times Georgia was up by at least four touchdowns, substitutions were liberally used.

Lastly, Gunner Stockton has thrown twice as many touchdowns as incompletions and leads the country in most touchdown passes without an interception. However, there are a couple of caveats to consider. The first is that some of Stockton's success may be attributed to the fact that the defense does not chip the end on a rollout, opting instead to release the TE or back to get open in the flat.

The second caveat is that Stockton hasn't had to deal with many progressions, allowing him to hit his primary target due to the defense's inability to cover him. Regardless, Stockton is performing admirably, virtually like the #1 QB in the country.
