We are around the mid point now of the College Football season. Arkansas started 3-0, but has now had 2 straight tough losses against Texas A&M and Alabama. We score 32 points on average per game, but we give up 30.6 points on average per game. We have had a lot of great moments so far, but also we've been disappointing in a lot of areas.
For offense, we seem to waste too many drives and we've been fumbling the ball too much. On defense, we've had 21 total sacks but we give up way too many big plays. But, I think the biggest thing we need to fix is momentum shifts.
We seem to lose a ton of our momentum in the game whenever the other team makes a big play. Texas A&M scoops and scores one of our fumbles when we were on track to bring the score 21-7. Instead, our offense takes awhile to get it's grove back late in the 4th quarter and our defense gave up too many big plays.
Alabama game. End of the 3rd has the score 28-23 with Arkansas coming back. Alabama scores another TD and we never get the fire again in the game. We need to work on not letting momentum shifts shake us and keep playing.
Hopefully, we have a fire in us to prove that we are still going to end the season well. It would be fitting to turn this 2 game losing streak around by beating the team that gave Sam Pittman his first SEC win with Arkansas. It also ended the 20 game SEC losing streak we had during the Chad Morris nightmare seasons and Bret Bielema's last lackluster 2017 season.
Just beat the Mississippi State Bulldogs. I've always hated their uniform color combination.
Time for the picks! I'm 84-24 (80%) for college football and 29-33 (46.77%) for NFL.
