3, 1, -6, 3, 0, 6

Those numbers are what was gained/lost on rushes in the 3rd qtr.

We only ran 13 plays in the 3rd quarter, 6 of which were runs, one of which was the interception and we passed for 37 yards.

We do not get the ball back until the 9:55 mark of the fourth quarter, down 17, 38-17.

Arkansas' first possession of the second half - we get the ball down 7 on the 25 yards line:

Pass
Pass
Pass
Punt


Arkansas' 2nd possession of the 2nd half, still down by 7, we start moving it but then on 3rd and 4 Collins get tackled in the backfield and we punt. No one blames Chaney for that. If Collins doesn't get us 4 yards there I can live with it. Better than putting it in Allen's hands against the pass rush. The play calls for this second possession were:

Run
Pass
Run
Pass
Run


Arkansas's 3rd possession of the 2nd half - we get the ball down 7 on the 15 yard line:

Run
Interception


So we had 10 plays over these 3 possessions to get our offense established while we were still in the game down by 7, and we don't call 2 runs in a row even though in the first half when we were running over them we called 5 runs in a row at once. Our first possession we don't hand it off once. Our line and backs were not given an opportunity to get themselves established and back into the flow. College football is 90% momentum based, and instead of giving the best part of this team an opportunity to gain momentum, Chaney got cute and walked into AU's trap.
