Greenlaw played best game of career in opener

FAYETTEVILLE — football on the fly as a true freshman thrust into a starting role for Arkansas.

Saturday was also a day of firsts for the now-sophomore linebacker. In a good way.

Greenlaw came down with his first collegiate interception in the 21-20 win over Louisiana Tech, a second-quarter pick he was in perfect position for.

He played well enough to earn the first “A” grade of his college career, a 92.

“Usually it’s like a C,” Greenlaw said, referencing grades from his true freshman season last fall.

That score was good enough for him to grade out higher than senior four-year starting middle linebacker Brooks Ellis for the first time in his career.
