Offense off target

FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas fixed some of its most glaring offensive issues -- first-down production and the running game -- between the season opener and the Week 2 loss at Colorado State.

But the 34-27 loss against the Rams produced a new set of trouble spots for the Razorbacks as they approach Saturday's game against North Texas (2-0) and try to find a groove under new Coach Chad Morris and offensive coordinator Joe Craddock.

Arkansas, which converted nearly half of its third-down plays (7 of 15) against Eastern Illinois, struggled with 5 of 15 (33 percent) conversions at Colorado State, including 1 of 5 in the second half when the Hogs couldn't stop the Rams' 25-point run.
