On the offensive game plan:" On the impact of the weather and conditions:" "It was just kind of a nasty day. It got a little colder in the second half, but it was a little bit wetter than you wanted it to be. We're trying to throw a screen, so your quarterbacks just going to try to catch and get the ball out quick to have the laces, and obviously that was an issue. And then our, you know, our snaps, we mumbled that up twice." On Beau Pribula's performance:" "Thought he did a really good job of getting us into the right plays, the right situations. He played well enough for us to win. And you know, that's what he's got to do. For him, being able to…...

All of the issues " ineffective FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. " Missouri's win over Arkansas to close the regular season was a fitting end for the Tigers' 2025 campaign. All of the issues " ineffective pass game, turnovers and costly moments on special teams " were as noticeable as ever, but so were the strengths of an elite rushing attack and pass rush. Additionally, the win comes two days after Eli Drinkwitz signed a six-year extension with the program following months of speculation that he could leave for the head job at Penn State, LSU or Florida.

1+ week, 1+ day ago (252+ words) One of the Big 12s most explosive offenses appears likely to put a ton of points on the board once again this weekend. No. 13 Utah is set to host Kansas State as a 17.5-point favorite on Saturday with a chance to secure its fourth straight win after losing to No. 12 BYU. Heres our full betting breakdown ahead of kickoff. Total: 53.5 (Over -105/Under -115) Kansas State and Utah are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to offense. The Utes rank second in the Big 12 in total yards per game (477.8) while the Wildcats are third from last (354.6). Theres a significant disparity on defense as well." Only No. 6 Texas Tech can top Utahs mark of 15.6 points per game allowed on defense and only three teams are giving up fewer yards per game. The Wildcats are a middle-of-the-road squad on defense thats below…...

1+ week, 2+ day ago (408+ words) The Texas Longhorns have seen their College Football Playoff hopes all but vanish, though there's still some notable football left this season with a pair of rivalry games at home to close out the year. No. 17 Texas will host the Arkansas Razorbacks on Saturday in Austin for the first time since 2008 after taking care of business in Fayetteville last season with a 20-10 win. The Longhorns are expected to come away with a victory against an Arkansas team that's still winless in SEC play and is on an eight-game losing streak, but there's plenty of reason for Texas to feel worried about being on upset alert. Led by quarterback Taylen Green and interim head coach Bobby Petrino, the Razorbacks quietly have one of the best offenses in the SEC this season. Arkansas is currently third in the conference in offensive yards…...

1+ week, 3+ day ago (216+ words) I gave you the Oklahoma Sooners to upset the Alabama Crimson Tide in last week's edition of my upset picks article. I'm going to try to keep the momentum going in Week 13, and I'm once again targeting three underdogs to win their game outright. Let's take a look at my top upset picks for the penultimate pick of the regular season. Georgia Tech is a run-first team, but Pittsburgh has one of the best run defenses in the country. They're eighth in opponent yards per carry, allowing just 2.8 yards per rush. They're also sixth in opponent rush EPA and third in opponent rush success rate. That is going to make for a long day for the Georgia Tech offense. Things get even more difficult for Georgia Tech when you consider the Panthers' offense. Pittsburgh is a pass-first team, but Georgia…...

2+ week, 6+ hour ago (877+ words) FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. " Close losses don't mean anything in sports. Like the great Ricky Bobby said in Talladega Nights, "If you ain't first, you're last." One too many times over the past 14 football seasons, the Arkansas Razorbacks have failed to recapture the spirit of winning that's eluded them. Fans have become accustomed to six wins being acceptable. Being close enough is an excuse to give a coach more time get things right in years four, five and six. The fire that once brewed for a fanbase that saw Arkansas nearly breakthrough every single week in 2014 under Bret Bielema would soon dull once they realized he couldn't get it done. Then, when Chad Morris was fired for being the worst coach in modern day football history, the search committee decided it wasn't worth paying Lane Kiffin an extra $500,000 to bring the Arkansas…...

2+ week, 16+ hour ago (506+ words) No. 21 Arkansas showed its class in a pair of preseason exhibitions against Cincinnati and Memphis, but in more recent times has shown their frailties as well. The frontcourt trio of Trevon Brazile, Malique Ewin and Nick Pringle are the definition of hit or miss. Brazile scored a career-high 25 before putting up three points against Michigan State. Ewin has yet to find his footing, scoring just a season-high 10 points against Central Arkansas after averaging 14.2 last year at Florida State. "TB looked wore out," coach John Calipari said. "I went to him because he was playing better than [the rest of the frontcourt]. You coach a game to win. "You worry about egos after the game." Arkansas' guard duo of Meleek Thomas and Darius Acuff Jr. are responsible for over 40% of the team's points, combining for 39.7 per game, but in some moments,…...

2+ week, 1+ day ago (448+ words) It was announced on Friday that Kansas basketball's star freshman guard Darryn Peterson is set to miss his second straight game for the Jayhawks as they get to set to welcome in the Princeton Tigers to Allen Fieldhouse on Saturday for a 1 p.m. CT tip-off on ESPN+. This is the third game in total that Peterson has missed thus far into the 2025-26 season " if you count KU's exhibition game against Fort Hays State in late October " and it's beginning to cause some concern among the Jayhawk faithful. It's not hard to understand why. Peterson was one of the most coveted high school basketball prospects this past decade, and many consider him to be a top five player in college basketball this year. Even Self has referred to him as the most talented player they've ever recruited. And now he's missing his…...
