Breaking News: The Razorbacks were dealing with injuries from their previous game against but……….
Arkansas had a rocky start against UAB, with sluggish defensive play and an offense that struggled in the passing game, resulting in an early 14-point deficit. The Razorbacks were dealing with injuries from their previous game against Oklahoma State. Head coach Sam Pittman attributed the slow start to less intense practices, noting that many defensive players had been limited to light contact the week before. Injuries sidelined Jaylen Braxton and Hudson Clark for this matchup.
Both Braxton and Clark remain on this week’s depth chart as first and second-teamers, respectively, but there are significant changes elsewhere. Patrick Kutas is no longer listed as the left guard, indicating he may not return soon. Meanwhile, Kyle Ramsey appears to have solidified his position, as the ‘or’ designation with Razorbacks’ has been removed, suggesting Ramsey’s role is now more secure.
Overall, the Razorbacks’ performance was concerning, with their depth impacted by injuries and shifts in the lineup. As they prepare for upcoming challenges, addressing these issues will be crucial to improving their performance on both sides of the ball.
