The Arkansas Razorbacks’ first game against an in-state opponent in 77 years was as one sided as the last.
Arkansas scored 45 first-half points and defeated Arkansas-Pine Bluff 45-3 on Saturday at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock. The teams agreed to play two 12-minute quarters after halftime.
UAPB kicker Zack Piwniczka connected on a 32-yard field goal with 6:34 remaining in the fourth quarter to deny Arkansas its first shutout since 2018.
The Razorbacks (5-3) snapped a three-game losing streak heading into their only bye week of the season.
Arkansas had not played another team from the state since Dec.
