Arkansas Razorbacks

Saturday, October 9 will be a revenge game. There is no doubt the Arkansas Razorbacks have been a thorn in the side of the Rebels. Every Ole Miss football fan knows this. In 2020, on the heels of a horrible outing by quarterback Matt Corral, the Hogs won 33-21 over the Rebels. It was just one of three games the Razorbacks won last season under first-year head coach Sam Pittman. The Hogs’ other two wins were a 21-14 victory at Miss State and a 24-13 win over Tennessee in Fayetteville.

Arkansas has talent on the roster and will need it to fill holes left by departures from the 2020 Hogs team. One spot will be at the quarterback position which belonged to Felipe Franks. The Razorbacks have a pretty good defense but they can’t stop the high-powered Ole Miss offense. Also, there will be no way to keep Matt Corral from proving the Hogs 2020 win was a fluke. Corral and the Rebels’ offense roll to an easy win in Vaught-Hemingway.
