Markham meltdown

The University of Arkansas built a 17-point lead against Ole Miss on a hard-hitting, rainy night, but they could not keep the Rebels' dangerous passing game and star quarterback Jordan Ta'amu down for the duration.

Ta'amu drove the Rebels 97 yards for a touchdown with 42 seconds left to cap a second-half comeback and snatch a 37-33 victory Saturday before a loud crowd of 51,438 at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock.

Scottie Phillips capped the winning drive with a 5-yard score as the Rebels (5-2, 1-2 SEC) snapped a four-game losing streak in the series.

The Razorbacks (1-6, 0-4 SEC) lost their sixth in a row while also losing key players Ty Storey, Rakeem Boyd, Devwah Whaley and McTelvin Agim to injuries.
