Notes and Tidbits
~As a unit, the Razorbacks earned a 69.3 defensive grade against San Jose State. That is just 0.4 better than what they posted in a road loss at Ole Miss. It's worth noting that Pro Football Focus does not factor strength of opponent into its grades - it is solely dependent on the play of the individual team.
~Arkansas' pass rush was almost non-existent, as it posted a 60.5 grade in that area. It's the sixth time the Razorbacks have had a sub-61 pass-rushing grade in 16 games under defensive coordinator John Chavis.
