What Pittman said Monday previewing Mississippi State week

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas coach Sam Pittman spoke to reporters for roughly a half hour Monday afternoon previewing this weekend's game against No. 23 Mississippi State.

Here are the highlights from his press conference:

• We’re very excited to go to Starkville, Miss. They’ve got a really good special teams unit. Will Rogers is a problem and a really good quarterback. They have a lot of talented receivers, too. Five of them have around 20 catches or more.

On defense, they blitz a lot and they play hard. There’s a reason they’re ranked in the top 25 this week and 4-1 this season.
