Blueprint not far for freshman Curl

FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas Razorbacks freshman Kamren Curl doesn't have to look far to find inspiration for what likely will be his first career start Saturday.

Last season, cornerback Ryan Pulley got his first start in Week 2 against TCU and made a name for himself in the Razorbacks' 41-38 victory in double overtime with three pass breakups and four tackles.

Curl is scheduled to take over Pulley's spot at left cornerback when the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville (1-0) hosts TCU (1-0) on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. at Reynolds Razorback Stadium.

Pulley is out, likely for the season, after suffering a pectoral muscle injury Thursday similar to what knocked Kevin Richardson out in last year's opener.
