Vols need efficiency on offense

FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas' tempo and offensive approach have required extensive practice time by Tennessee this week.

The Volunteers are preparing for the type of pro-style offense they haven't faced in three seasons under Coach Butch Jones.

"Your possession are going to be very, very minimal on offense, so it's all about taking advantage of those possessions," Jones said. "This is a game our players have never been in, in terms of the flavor of the game, the style of the game, everything that the game's going to be about, and it's going to be very physical."

Arkansas ranks third in the country in time of possession at nearly 36 minutes per game, and the Razorbacks have punted seven times in four games.
