Arkansas geared up for UTEP

FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas tight end Hunter Henry was dripping with sweat immediately after a heavy workout Tuesday evening, but Henry looked happier than he's been in weeks because the Razorbacks open the season Saturday.

"I feel like I just jumped out of a pool," Henry said. "It's nice ... finally having something to look forward to at the end of the week."

The No. 18 Razorbacks open the season Saturday against Texas-El Paso after four weeks of hitting each other.

"I'm fired up just as much as the players are," running backs coach Jemal Singleton said of his debut with the Razorbacks.
