FAYETTEVILLE -- Nick Starkel became the fifth player to start at quarterback for the University of Arkansas football team in the past 15 games.
Based on Starkel's play against Colorado State on Saturday, he might hang onto the job for a while.
Starkel, a junior graduate transfer from Texas A&M, completed 20 of 35 passes for 305 yards and 3 touchdowns without an interception to help Arkansas beat the Rams 55-34 at Reynolds Razorback Stadium.
It was Starkel's first start since Texas A&M's finale of the 2017 season in the Belk Bowl when he completed 42 of 63 passes for 499 yards and 4 touchdowns in Wake Forest's 55-52 victory over the Aggies.
