Arkansas Razorbacks
The Arkansas Razorbacks suffer from a case of just being good. They are good at just about everything but aren’t necessarily great at anything.
Their receivers are sort of fast, but they don’t have a deep threat that can blow the top off the defense. They can be physical inside, but their size usually is susceptible to going up against a physical front seven. This also affects the strength of their offense, the run game.

They can also beat you on the edges with speed making them a double threat that must be respected. They are pretty legit defensively. Although their size can be somewhat of a disadvantage.
They have a speedy secondary that can defend deep but often gets beat in the slot position. Against the run, there is a lot they need to improve upon, including one thing they can’t, and that is size.
