Sad Stats


He's the King. Even Bama Fans agree, but there is a reason why you haven't see this pose from D-Mac very much this year. Arkansas ranks 3rd in overall Rushing Offense(yards). They have only put 6 of those 154 attempts into the end zone. Darren McFadden is Number 1 in most Heisman polls and #1 in the NCAA in rushing yards. Rushing TDs? He's got 31 guys ahead of him. He has guys like Omar Haugabook from Troy in front of him. Ray Rice has 8 TDs and Darren McFadden has 4. The team is struggling to put the ball into the end zone, and that is why they rank 57th in rushing TDs(behind Hawaii) and that is why they are 0-2 in SEC play.

Arkansas vs. Kentucky was a game of Arkansas apparently manhandling Kentucky in the 1st half 20-7 until a Micheal Smith fumble made it 20-14. The truth behind that is two field goals, a Defensive TD on Kentucky's first offensive play, and a 56 yard zig zag TD by Darren McFadden. The other TD of the game was a Special Teams takeback by Felix Jones.

Arkansas has a team coming to town that is in the same boat as them. North Texas ranks 5th in passing Offense with 378 yards/game, but they have only put the ball in the end zone 5 times! A large part of that is the 9 interceptions they've thrown. They rank 65th in passing TDs.

David Lee and the Arkansas offense needs one focus for this week. End zone
