LEXINGTON, Ky. — Ben Hicks has earned the right to start against Auburn on Saturday.
Nick Starkel needs to prepare hard and be ready, but Hicks came off the bench for the University of Arkansas and gave the Razorbacks Nation a reason to watch.
Hicks entered with the Hogs trailing Kentucky 17-13 late in the third quarter, and all the momentum was with the Wildcats after they scored 17 unanswered points.
Hicks drove the Razorbacks 29 yards for a touchdown that gave them a 20-17 lead with 10:35 left, but the Razorbacks defense forgot how to tackle.
