Arkansas’ three most experienced linebackers have all spent one half on the bench this season due to targeting penalties, which seemingly made them hungrier once on the field.
The senior trio of Hayden Henry, Grant Morgan and Bumper Pool combined for 38 tackles Saturday as the Razorbacks humbled visiting Texas 40-21. They have totaled 58 tackles through two games.
Henry (15 tackles) was named the Walter Camp national defensive player of the week and SEC defensive player of the Week, Morgan (14 tackles) won the Chuck Bednarik national player of the week award and Pool had 10 stops in the second half after serving his targeting penalty.
