Arkansas QB Austin Allen led the SEC in passing yards last season, piling up 3,430 yards and 25 touchdowns through the air.

This season, he has gotten off to a bit of a slow start, throwing for only 273 yards and two touchdowns through two games.

Still, Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin isn’t taking an upcoming game against the Razorbacks lightly. On Tuesday, he said he has a lot of respect for what Allen does for the Arkansas offense.

“He’s experienced,” Sumlin says. “He’s certainly one of the best quarterbacks in this league. When he gets going, it can be tough.”

For a team that has struggled defensively like the Aggies have, they’ll need their best effort on Saturday in Dallas.

Saturday’s game at AT&T Stadium in Dallas kicks off at 11 a.m. Central time and can be seen on ESPN.
