Hogs familiar with blowing late leads

The University of Arkansas football team's inclination for blowing big leads began at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock six years ago.

It continued there Saturday night.

Ole Miss overcame a 17-point deficit to beat the Razorbacks 37-33 and send them to their sixth consecutive loss.

For the Razorbacks and their fans, it was an all-too-familiar continuation of a disturbing trend that began with Louisiana-Monroe's 34-31 overtime victory in War Memorial Stadium in 2012.

Arkansas blew a 21-point lead in the loss.

That game was the first of 15 the Razorbacks have lost since 2012 in which they led by 10 or more points.
