How Coastal Carolina came just short of biggest victory in school history

Coastal Carolina almost took a lot more than a big check from Arkansas on Saturday.

The Chanticleers, who received $1.5 million to be Arkansas’ Homecoming opponent, nearly ended their program-record losing streak in shocking fashion at

Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville, Ark.

Arkansas scored the final 14 points of the game in the final 10 minutes to pull out a 39-38 win over the Chants, who lost their eighth consecutive game to fall to 1-8 on the season.

The Chanticleers competed with a backup quarterback playing most of the game and an offensive line that featured four freshmen and a sophomore due to some injuries.
