An odd game was won mostly because of Arkansas' offense.
The Hogs won the toss, Alcorn State opened by attempting an onside kick that gave the Razorbacks first and 10 from the Braves 43, and seven plays later it was 3-0.
Another nine plays netted three big touchdowns. A 75-yard touchdown run by Devwah Whaley was sandwiched by Austin Allen to Jared Cornelius touchdowns of 29 and 35 yards. As the first 15 minutes expired, the numbers were overwhelming.
Arkansas led 24-0, had 8 first downs to one for the visitors, had 237 yards of total offense to 17, and the Braves hadn't gotten within 9 yards of Razorbacks territory.
