Razorbacks' 70-0 win may have showed promise to fans, but Cowboys have their own problems first.
Nobody, except Sam Pittman and his staff, was as interested in seeing what the supposedly rebuilt Razorbacks looked like in their season debut than Mike Gundy.
What everyone saw, including me on the ESPNU national telecast, was an Arkansas team with potential. Enough potential to make Gundy, the Oklahoma State coach who faces Arkansas in eight days, lose a bit of sleep next week. It means nothing, but Arkansas has won five straight in the series between the schools. Last time they played was 1980, when the phrase dual-threat quarterback had never been heard. Well, the Hogs have one of those, and I saw enough last night to think he might be the answer.
Green's night of competition was over at halftime, when the Hogs had 444 yards of offense and UAPB just 76. Jackson ain't Darren McFadden, so let's not get too excited too quickly, but he looks hungry, which did not seem to describe last year's banged up disappointment Raheim Sanders, now at South Carolina. Jackson is quick and tough to tackle, often gaining yards after contact.
