Here are some quick thoughts on Arkansas’ 31-14 win over LSU.

What it means: LSU’s SEC title hopes are done. The Tigers fall into a three-way tie for second place with Arkansas and Ole Miss. Various scenarios could result in a three-way tie at year’s end with Arkansas, Alabama and LSU or a two-way tie between the Tide and Tigers, but LSU would come up short in either tiebreaker due to head-to-head losses.

Meanwhile, the Hogs’ hot streak continues, and for the second straight season, Arkansas is closing out the season playing at an extremely high level. The Hogs have won four straight and five of its past six to clinch bowl eligibility after a 1-3 start to the season.

What I liked: Arkansas finally got a pass rush. The Hogs have struggled mightily when it comes to pressuring opposing quarterbacks, posting just eight sacks through their first nine games. Against LSU, they had three in the first half alone, including a strip sack by freshman Dre Greenlaw that set up Arkansas’ third touchdown. They kept the pressure up throughout and never let Brandon Harris stay comfortable for long.

For LSU, unlike last year, when the Alabama hangover seemed to weigh down the Tigers for all four quarters against the Hogs, LSU at least showed some fight on Saturday. Unfortunately for the Tigers, they couldn’t capitalize when they had possession and the lead was down to 10. Arkansas scored on a 69-yard run on the ensuing drive, effectively ending LSU’s challenge.

What I didn’t like: For the second week, LSU’s offensive line was beaten soundly. Against Alabama, that wasn’t shocking; the Tide have one of the best front sevens in the country. Arkansas does not, but the Hogs did a solid impression in Tiger Stadium. And while the Tigers showed signs of life late in the first half and early in the second, their play was sloppy overall.

For Arkansas, there wasn’t a lot to complain about. The Hogs gave up long touchdown drives on either side of the halftime break, but overall the defense came through with the stops that were needed and the offense remained highly efficient.

Who’s the man: Deatrich Wise. The entire Arkansas defensive line played well, but it was Wise coming up with the biggest plays. The junior defensive end had a pair of sacks and multiple quarterback hurries, making it difficult for LSU to mount a comeback.

Key play: With Arkansas nursing a 10-point lead early in the fourth quarter, Arkansas receiver Jared Cornelius took an end around, sprinted up the left sideline and followed a block from fellow receiver Dominique Reed all the way to the end zone.

What’s next: Arkansas (6-4, 4-2 SEC) hosts No. 17 Mississippi State,  while LSU (7-2, 4-2 SEC) is at Ole Miss.
