Texas Tech at Arkansas – The Razorbacks exposed the Red Raiders’ inability to stop the run last year in Lubbock when they stampeded Texas Tech for 439 yards on 68 carries in a 49-28 rout.

Bret Bielema has Hogs fans believing that they can compete for an SEC West title – this year.  Arkansas has a huge offensive line and will return Alex Collins as a key cog in that running game.

The Red Raiders come off only their second losing season since 1992 at 4-8.  Kliff Kingsbury is also breaking in a new quarterback as he needs to see a defense drastically improve under new coordinator David Gibbs. The Red Raiders gave up a devastating 513 yards per game last season.
