For all the talk about kicking in Arkansas’ game against Mississippi State, most of it dealt with the Bulldogs.
Mississippi State coach Mike Leach said after Arkansas’ 31-28 victory on Saturday, a victory in which Bulldogs kickers went 0 for 3 on field goals, he would have an open tryout for kickers. Arkansas, on the other hand, had no such problem.
Freshman kicker Cam Little made three of his four attempts in the win, including one that tied the school record in distance for a freshman. Little’s makes from 46, 48 and 51 yards were enough to earn him SEC Freshman of the Week honors. He was the first Arkansas freshman since 1997 to have three good kicks from 40 yards or more.
Little has now won SEC Freshman of the Week twice this year. He also earned the honor in Week 4 when he made four attempts in Arkansas’ 20-10 win over Texas A&M.
On the season, the freshman from Oklahoma is 14 of 18 on attempts. The 14 makes are tied for second most in the SEC.
