Kenny Guiton honeymoon over? Arkansas OC hears boos, fans share frustrations amid struggles
It appears the Kenny Guiton honeymoon is over for Arkansas fans.
The Arkansas interim offensive coordinator, who took over after Dan Enos was fired after the Razorbacks’ loss to Mississippi State, had a great game against Florida. It has not been the same story against Auburn on Saturday.
Arkansas’ offense has been non existent in the first half of Saturday’s matchup, posting just 3 points on a field goal, punting 5 times and losing the ball on a fumble. The result has been a 24-3 lead for the Tigers heading into halftime.
Guiton’s 39-point performance against Florida feels like it could have been a fluke, as Arkansas’ offense has returned to its regular low-scoring form 2 games into Guiton’s tenure.
Guiton is fighting for a full-time job as Arkansas’ offensive coordinator, but Saturday’s performance is not a good look. Hopefully Guiton won’t be responding to any emails following the game like his predecessor.
Following the first half performance, fans blasted Guiton on social media.
The boos really come down after Arkansas lined up to go for it on fourth-and-1 at its own 24, only to call a timeout when Auburn didn't jump.

Maybe the Kenny Guiton hype was a bit premature, eh? https://t.co/n3I8XOo5OQ
