Greenlaw grades out over Ellis

FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas sophomore linebacker Dre Greenlaw, who had seven tackles and his first interception last week, posted a game grade of 92 to edge senior Brooks Ellis for the first time in his career.

"Usually he beats me, so it felt good," Ellis said. "Usually it's like a C."

Greenlaw, who posted the first A of his career, had to be that good to edge Ellis, because the middle linebacker had no mental mistakes against Louisiana Tech.

"I don't think I've ever coached a game where I had a Mike linebacker with zero mental busts, and he was a guy that was locked in every play," Coach Bret Bielema said of Ellis.
