FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas' football players started class Monday and were introduced to season-opening opponent Texas-El Paso Tuesday, and the result, after two days off, was a practice that started slow and got better as the day went on.
"We're coming off a couple of off days, a little rusty," left tackle Denver Kirkland said. "We just had to get back in the groove, but we finished off well."
Offensive line coach Sam Pittman said coaches decided to lay out all the different fronts and the wide variety of blitzes the Miners used last season, which helped slow the tempo.
