The touchdown was KJ Jefferson’s. The reason for the touchdown was Jefferson’s and Treylon Burks.
Jefferson, the Arkansas quarterback, did his best Brandon Allen impression by diving toward and flipping into the end zone with 1:42 left in the third quarter to tie the Razorbacks with Ole Miss, 31-31.

The touchdown came from six yards, but it was set up by Jefferson’s finding wide receiver Treylon Burks for back-to-back, leaping 37-yard catches. Both grabs were deep throws down the left sideline. The first put Arkansas at the ball at the Ole Miss 38. The second at the Ole Miss 1.
After a false start penalty pushed the Hogs back five yards, Jefferson found paydirt.
Tie game.
