Technically, Arkansas football and its fans have had four different years of KJ Jefferson to look at it on the field. Thankfully for the program and its faithful, they get almost two whole years more.
Jefferson made a name for himself last year in throwing for more 2,700 yards with 21 touchdown passes and just four interceptions. His most impressive trait, though, was his running ability as he took off 146 times for a team-high 664 yards with six touchdowns.
To the surprise of no one, it’s been much of the same so far this year. Arkansas is a perfect 3-0, too, heading into the Hogs’ first major test of the year on Saturday: the Southwest Classic against Texas A&M in Week 4.
Jefferson set a career-high in passing in the Hogs’ Week 3 win against Missouri State, going 19 of 31 for 385 yards and two touchdowns. He’s been just as good this year as he was last.
But how good is that? Let’s take a look.
