Arkansas is, perhaps, the hottest team in the country, and now travels to Columbia, Mo., to face a Missouri team with an SEC East team on the line.

We dig into the good and bad numbers of the Razorbacks’ showdown with the Tigers.

THE GOOD

8: The number of quarters since Arkansas last allowed a touchdown. The Hogs have reeled off back-to-back shutouts of SEC teams for the first time since the team joined the conference in 1992. Robb Smith’s turnaround of the Razorbacks defense hit stride three weeks ago, and provides a stiff test to an inconsistent Missouri offense.

+6: The Razorbacks are plus-six in turnover margin, and forced six Ole Miss turnovers last week. Turnover margin will be key on Black Friday; Mizzou quarterback Maty Mauk is a gunslinger and has shown to be turnover prone at times this season. Arkansas’ pressure on defense and ability to force the Tigers into some turnovers will put Bret Bielema’s team in a great position to win.

39: The percentage of third downs on which opponents are converting. The Hogs are getting off the field on third down, fueling two consecutive shutouts. Missouri is capable of an offensive outburst, and given extra chances, can pile up points in a hurry.

THE BAD

40: The number of sacks registered by Missouri this season, tops in the SEC. Shane Ray and Markus Golden have wreaked havoc on opposing quarterbacks this season and could prove troublesome for an Arkansas offensive line that, while big, struggle with speed of the edges.

124.3: The number of rushing yards per game allowed by the Tigers, which ranks sixth in the SEC. Arkansas has ridden its potent rushing attack to two straight wins and bowl eligibility. With the status of quarterback Brandon Allen unknown, the Razorbacks need strong efforts from Jonathan Williams and Alex Collins.

94: The percentage of red zone opportunities on which Missouri is scoring. Arkansas’ defense came up with two big red zone interceptions last week in the win over Ole Miss. When the Tigers get inside the 20s, they’re a virtual lock to score. The Hogs need to come up with a stops in order to keep the game competitive.
