Statistically, Arkansas’ day against Kent State wasn’t what one would call great.
A victory is a victory, though, and defensively, the numbers did have some quality. Linebackers Jaheim Thomas and Antonio Grier, both transfers, established themselves as regulars both now and for the future. The Arkansas secondary gave up just 174 yards and no scores. And the defense as a whole, led by the defensive line, logged seven sacks.
They were so good, anyway, that Arkansas’ below-par day offensively could be easily forgiven.
Here are the players the staff at Razorbacks Wire picked as Arkansas’ Players of the Game against the Golden Flashes.
