LITTLE ROCK — Wherever form reversal occurs, the explanation often involves unintended cooperation from the opposition.
That’s true for the Arkansas defense in its fourth game under John Chavis, a 3-year-old filly, and a 42-year-old golfer.
Football first.
The UA defense that gave up 429 yards and 34 points to a Mountain West team and 44 points, including 27 straight, to a Conference USA opponent, limited an SEC West contender to 225 yards.
The quick and easy reasoning is to cite the full-time participation of linebacker Dre Greenlaw and defensive end Randy Ramsey. Greenlaw played for the first time since suffering a high ankle sprain early in the season opener and Ramsey, who has had a hamstring issue, was finally full bore.
