Arkansas rolled over Missouri to end a five-year losing streak with a 34-17 win Friday afternoon at Razorback Stadium in a game that wasn’t as close as the final score sounds.
We’ll have complete postgame coverage later at HitThatLine.com
4Q 1:25: Tyler Badie added a relatively meaningless touchdown on a short run late. The Tigers added a 2-point conversion for the final margin. Hogs 34, Missouri 17
4Q 9:52: Hogs just toying with Missouri now. Tigers throw an interception by Montaric Brown. After a couple of big plays by De’Vion Warren, Rocket Sanders takes an option pitch from Treylon Burks and speeds into the end zone from six yards out. Hogs 34, Missouri 9
4Q 11:44: Arkansas gets an 11-play, 70-yard scoring drive that should have been a touchdown except Trelon Smith’s run was called back for holding on Trey Knox. Cam Little kicked a 23-yard field goal to open a three-score margin. Hogs 27, Missouri 9
3Q 2:03: Missouri answers Hogs’ touchdown with a field goal. Harris Mevis kicks a 41-yard field goal to make it a two-score game. Hogs 24, Missouri 9.
3Q 9:48: Razorbacks starting to just pull away from Missouri now as KJ Jefferson throws to Treylon Burks on a pump-and-go down the left sideline for a 52-yard scoring play. Hogs 24, Missouri 6
(The scoring play gave Burks his sixth 100-yard-plus receiving day this season, which is a first in program history.)
3Q 11:13: Arkansas gets a big play when De’Vion Warren took a little screen pass from KJ Jefferson and went straight down the hashmarks for 55 yards to Missouri 6. Two plays later, Trelon Smith cut back a run up the middle for a walk-in score from 4 yards out. Hogs 17, Missouri 6
2Q 3:02: Tigers answer Hogs’ touchdown with an eight-play, 44-yard drive that was probably slowed by Tyler Badie grabbing Myles Slusher’s face mask on an out-of bounds play. Missouri’s Harris Mevis kicked another field goal, this time from 49 yards. Hogs 10, Missouri 6
2Q 5:53: Arkansas finally gets some offense moving as they drive 76 yards in eight plays, the biggest being KJ Jefferson over-throwing Treylon Burks, who managed to hit another gear to catch the ball but stumbled. Three plays later Raheim Sanders plowed into the end zone for the first touchdown of the game. Hogs 10, Missouri 3
2Q 13:27: Hogs running back Trelon Smith coughs up the ball and Missouri recovers, but the defense doesn’t let them do much offensively. Harrison Mevis drills a 46-yard field goal and the game is tied. Hogs 3, Missouri 3
1Q 10:01: Arkansas manages to get the defense off the field with Missouri over-throws a sure-fire touchdown pass on third down. KJ Jefferson breaks free up the middle for 49 yards but penalties and breakdowns in the offensive line stall the drive and Cam Little kicks a 36-yard field goal. Hogs 3, Missouri 0
Everybody is set and Senior Day completed for Arkansas as we await kickoff.
