Plus ULL was decent at stopping the run.


No, they were 42nd in the country against the run, and the only reason they're ranked that high is because everyone passed against them. Their pass defense was 112th.

They had 475/472 Rushes to Passes Attempted on them. As close to 50% as you are going to get. And 42nd is decent. Thats the top 3rd of the nation.

If you think ULL will score less than 21 you are delusional. Watching the Arkansas spring game it is obvious their defense leaves much to be desired.
ULL is returning a the entire back field from last year and a top 10 center in the country, not to mention a WR group that features Jamal Robinson. If you don't know who he is now, you will after Saturday.
And as for as the Defense goes ULL has a new defensive coordinator,James Willis, former LB coach at Auburn then Alabama. Majority of the woes last year were from the crap of a defensive coordinator putting guys in bad positions. They are returning the leading tackler (Anderson) from last year along with the leading sack guy (Ringo). The secondary may be young but the safety position will be more experienced and the CB have been a strong point so for in camp.

So any one who thinks it will not be a close game is trying to psych themselves out.
ULL- 34
Arky- 31
