It isn't great but effective with our scheme...

If Tunsil isn't going strong then I imagine we'll see Bad Bo. Flowers will eat whoever gets rolled out their alive.

Have outrushed every team they've played this year except for UGA and Auburn. UGA game was a bit of an anomaly (although they did run it down our throats on the first drive and in the second half), and Auburn was first game of the year
Might have something to do with their ability to do this despite everyone knowing ahead of time that they have a heavy preference of rushing vs. passing

That speaks more to their defense which IS better than people think

They have quality and depth at RB. They do have a good rushing attack.

Arkansas rushing offense in the non-con:
355 yards per game at 7.1 yards per carry
Arkansas rushing offense in conference play:
152 yards per game at 4.0 yards per carry

Probably right.
Real reason is more likely that they are 3rd in SEC in YPC
UGA: 6.1
Auburn: 5.8
Arky: 5.5
MSU: 5.4
Bama: 4.9
OM: 4.7
USC:4.6
UF: 4.6
A&M: 4.6
Missouri: 4.6
LSU: 4.2
KU: 4.2
Vanderbilt: 3.6
Tenn: 3.5

Bolstered on pounding the non con opponents. Like I said, they are 8th in YPC in conference games only.

The numbers show differently.

And we have pretty subpar QB play. If you're a DC, what is your plan of attack? Arkansas, IMO, has faced more 8 and 9 man fronts than any team in the country. No one is worried about Brandon Allen.

They are 8th in rushing yards per carry in conference play. Their overall yards per carry is so high because of their non-con. Specifically, because they ran for 495 yards at 12.4 yards per carry against Nicholls State.

Arkansas does have a great run game, they just don't have offensive line depth and the boundary threats.
When you're running against a stacked box, your run game won't look that great.

You have the worst pass defense. No you arent last in yards given up per game. Thats because you have the least pass attempts thrown against you. Look at QB rating... look at passing TD's. Given you have already faced LSU and your numbers are that bad warrants the "worst pass defense" label.
Do people think before they post?

It's amazing what you can realize when you're not hellbent on flaming or trolling.

Arkansas has run well against teams with smaller, quicker defensive lines. They have struggled against teams with size that can match them in the trenches. I don't know much about Missouri's or the Ole Miss defensive lines as far as their size goes. If they are undersized they will get gouged.
