The Arkansas Razorbacks enjoyed a strong outing in capturing their second win of the season.
Arkansas QB Austin Allen looked sharp and threw for 264 yards and 3 TDs while the Hogs rushing attack got rolling with 230 yards, 3 TDs, and 4.5 YPC. RB Devwah Whaley was the leading rusher with 19 carries, 119 yards, and a TD.
Saturday’s performance is one the Hogs can build on as they get set to resume SEC play against South Carolina next weekend.
Here is what head coach Bret Bielema said following the Hogs win over the Aggies:

Bret Bielema: I think our kicker (Limpert) is really good, he’s been hitting it really well in practice. We just wanted to go for it today.

Bielema on OL: It’s by committee. I thought there were some guys who stepped up during the week… We’ve got to find who our best guys are.

"I'm tired of saying the word "could've" I'm ready to change the narrative." – Coach Bielema
