Cody Hollister Injury: Updates on Arkansas WR’s Recovery from Foot Surgery

“To play a good team, a team that is coached as well as they are in Texas Tech, I think you really have to be opportunistic and take what they are giving you”, Bielema said. Facing Texas Tech is the ideal opportunity for him, and the entire offense, to gain momentum heading into conference play. The pair met when Bielema was linebackers coach at his alma mater Iowa and Gibbs was defensive coordinator at Minnesota in the mid-1990s. “It starts up front”, he said. “If I can’t count on you to be at a meeting, we’re not going to be able to count on you on-field”.

A bunch of drunken Arkansas fans got into a nasty brawl at a tailgate party prior to last weekend’s game against Toledo. And Jonathan Williams basically jogged into the end zone with no obstacles in his path. Arkansas went on to rush for an astounding 438 yards, exposing the Red Raiders as soft while further amplifying the notion that the Big 12 was merely a finesse conference.

Texas Tech Head Coach Kliff Kingsbury, there is no change in the game plan to go hog wild against the Razorbacks.

Bumpas helped Arkansas to a 9-2 record in 1970, posting 53 tackles as an All-Southwest Conference defensive lineman for the league’s top-rated defense. “I think the quarterback is very talented but with the success they had past year against us in the run game, I would expect to see a heavy dose run but I’m sure they’ll mix in the pass”.

The high-powered Patrick Mahomes era has resulted in 11 touchdown drives under a minute-and-a-half. He finished with 361 passing yards, six total touchdowns and no interceptions or sacks.

The timing of these wide receiver injuries is less than ideal for Arkansas, who is coming off of a 16-12 loss against unranked Toledo despite passing for over 400 yards on the day.

“We went over the schedule on Thursday night and so until that correlation begins to happen”, Bielema said. “So, we’re going to try to do what we do the best we can”.

Bielema dismissed any questions about the line’s chemistry following the moves, saying left guard Sebastian Tretola and right guard Frank Ragnow have continued to play well through the first two weeks with the rest of the group.

Texas Tech starts fast.
