Chavis, Bobo no strangers

FAYETTEVILLE -- Colorado State Coach Mike Bobo and Arkansas defensive coordinator John Chavis, long-time SEC rivals, will square off for the 22nd time Saturday.

Bobo was a quarterback at Georgia, then a graduate assistant and assistant coach for the Bulldogs the last 21 times his team went against Chavis at Tennessee and LSU.

"I've known coach Chavis for a long time," Bobo said. "Obviously, I knew about him when I was a player and his reputation. Then facing him as a coach, and having a chance to get to know him, he's just a great guy. Very personable.
