“I do think Arkansas, while their record doesn’t reflect it, has been in every football game,” Napier said. He also commented on why, saying they are playing “pretty good defense for the most part.” That, paired with a change offensively, means the Arkansas that comes out Saturday is unlikely to be the Arkansas that lost 7-3 to the Bulldogs. He told reporters earlier that he doesn’t believe their record reflects Arkansas’ true potential. But to write these Razorbacks off completely and look ahead to LSU wouldn’t be a wise move. Mississippi State may have proven that a few weeks ago. Now, there’s something to be said to what losing 6 in a row can do to a team’s confidence as the season wears on. The Razorbacks played Alabama, Ole Miss and LSU tight during a brutal early-season stretch. Five of Arkansas’s 6 losses this season are by one possession. Putting that talent to the field and executing, though, is another story.
