Arkansas wwas humbled to begin the game, but quickly found a way to bring themselves back to life before entering the locker room at halftime.
Arkansas scored ten unanswered points to close the half, as they trail 21-10 to Mississippi State at Davis Wade Stadium.
The Bulldogs scored on their first three drives, jumping out to a 21-0 lead at the 9:03 mark in the 2nd quarter. Quarterback Will Rogers connected with Austin Williams and Jaden Walley on touchdown passes of five and 10 yards, and passed for 200 yards on 19 completions.
Arkansas stormed back to trim the lead to 11 thanks to a 51-yard field goal by Cam Little, and a touchdown rush by Rocket Sanders, all happening within the final six minutes of the half.
K.J. Jefferson could not make the start today, which has led Arkansas to use a two-quarterback system. Between Cade Fortin and Malik Hornsby, it appears that Hornsby, early on at least, has give Arkansas a better chance to win. Through the first half, Hornsby has completed 3-of-4 passes for 112 yards, and has rushed for 63 yards.
