FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas Razorbacks defensive coordinator John Chavis set a goal of forcing three turnovers Saturday.
The Razorbacks did even better than that.
The University of Arkansas defense forced five turnovers -- all on fumbles -- to give the offense a lot of help as the Razorbacks beat Eastern Illinois 55-20 at Reynolds Razorback Stadium on Saturday to open the season.
It was the most takeaways for Arkansas since having six in a 30-0 victory over Ole Miss in 2014.
"Chief's scheme is an aggressive scheme," Arkansas linebacker De'Jon Harris said, using Chavis' nickname. "Us getting five this week, now we're going to shoot for at least six or more next week.
