Not saying any of them compare to Daniels, but Texas QBs had the same struggles and have torched other opponents since. It may be fair to assume that Arkansas has a decent defense.

I think you have a good defense. Not sure if we can establish the run. Can we pass even if we can't? Don't know the answer to those questions.

I really only caught the highlights of y'alls game, but didn't they play Card for most of the game and since then have switched to the other QB (the one who had a couple of late successful drives against your D)? I'm sure that with a fairly big lead, the defensive approach was shifted in favor of grinding clock and not allowing explosive plays, but tough to accurately gauge Arkansas D vs poor QB play against what looks to be improved QB play in subsequent games for Texas, no? I think Arky Defense is legit, but you had 3/4 of a game against what turned out to be not the best QB for Texas and 4 quarters against a bad QB in Calzada.

That's not to say that I am confident in Daniels personally, just trying to get a sense of how Arkansas D has held up against quality QB play. Daniels has a lot to prove this week, given lack of offensive output in the Clemson game.

Certainly seems like the line is a bit high, but I'll leave that one to the Hawgs to bet.
