Rocket Sanders established his presence as the top freshman skill player on the Arkansas roster almost immediately. Cam Little ended the 2021 season as not only the best freshman kicker in the SEC, but perhaps the nation.
As such, the two were named to the All-SEC Freshman team on Thursday.
Sanders was the No. 2 Arkansas running back all season, finishing third on the team yards rushing with 499 yards. He ran the ball 101 times and had three touchdowns on the ground, as well.
The Florida native was recruited to Arkansas as a wide receiver and showed clear skill catching the ball. His 11 receptions led all Arkansas backs and they went for 109 yards and a touchdown.
Little was the Razorbacks’ No. 1 kicker since arriving in the spring. He was 19 of 23 on field goals this season. The 19 makes were tied for the most by any Arkansas kicker since Zach Hocker made 21 in 2011.
Only one freshman kicker in FBS, Kent State’s Andrew Glass, made more field goals (20).
