ARLINGTON, Texas — Patience is a tough message to hear, but it seems appropriate after the second straight week of seeing lots of fight in an Arkansas team clearly wearing the underdog role in the SEC West.
No doubt, it seems really appropriate as the Razorbacks welcome to town No. 1 Alabama, the defending national champion looking like the nation's best again.
The Hogs are a 1-4 team that does look to be improving, even if they still don't have all cylinders clicking just ahead of the halfway mark in Chad Morris' first season as coach.
But, it doesn't seem so daunting after the Arkansas defense played up to the competition for the second straight week, this time giving the offense the ball in the final two minutes with a chance to flip the script against Texas A&M in the Southwest Classic.
