Ole Miss OL Christian Morris has spinal cord contusion, career over
In nine games Allen is 174-268 with 2,476 yards passing.
Arkansas (5-4, 3-2) now preps for Saturday’s 6:15 p.m. ESPN-televised SEC West game against the LSU Tigers, ranked ninth in Sunday’s AP poll, at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, La. “In my mind, I feel like we won the game, but the scoreboard and reality says we lost”. And Arkansas did not turn the ball over against the Rebels. The fumble was recovered at the 11, but since Collins had passed the first down before fumbling, the first down stood. The Razorbacks have run for over 200 yards in five of the last six games.
“I wanted down”, said Allen, who was also thrown over the shoulder of defensive lineman DeMarcus Hodge as the Razorbacks celebration cascaded down their sideline on their way off the field.
As he was getting tackled, Henry tossed the ball back to Alex Collins on a blind lateral, and Collins extended the game with a first-down run.
Against Ole Miss, Allen set a Razorbacks record throwing six touchdowns among his 33 completions of 45 passes for 442 yards without a turnover plus running for the game-winning 2-point conversion in overtime. The quarterback often gets too much blame when things go wrong and too much credit when things go right.
Freeze said he wasn’t surprised the Razorbacks elected to go for the win.
“They couldn’t stop us”, he said. Stoerner told the Northwest Arkansas Touchdown Club on September 30. If that were to happen, he’d top Eli Manning’s single-season passing yards record (3,600 in 2003), Bo Wallace’s single-season total yards record (3,701 in 2013), and Eli Manning’s single-season total touchdowns record (32 in 2003).
“This team has been through a lot of adversity, every player on the team”, Laquon Treadwell, junior wide receiver, said. I thought Chad (Kelly) played extremely well, as did the offensive line and receivers. Cornerback Tony Bridges, however, blocked kicker Cole Hedlund’s attempt. When two teams score 90 points and combine for 1,140 yards, and two quarterbacks account for nearly 900 yards between them in regulation, there is a long list of highlights that never get published. “I’m willing to do whatever Coach (Nick Saban) wants me to do”.
“It is an extremely hard way to end the game”, Freeze said. You put so much into this deal and then you lose a game like tonight that comes down to the wire. “You’re going to have to do both to win, because there is going to be a game where one might not be working”.
Things started out well on the play, with quarterback Brandon Allen having plenty of time to throw outside to Hunter Henry for about three yards.
