Dwelling on '16 not for Rhoads

FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas defensive coordinator Paul Rhoads did not go into details when he was asked last weekend why the Razorbacks underperformed on defense.

"I would rather look forward than look back," Rhoads said Saturday at his first media session since being promoted from defensive backs coach by Bret Bielema. "There were a lot of factors that affected the output and performance of this defensive unit, but I'm sure looking forward to 2017."

Arkansas ranked No. 76 in total defense, allowing 426.6 yards per game, and No. 94 in rushing defense, allowing 205.5 yards per game. The Razorbacks allowed 5.
