The objectives change a bit for Coastal Carolina this week.
The Chanticleers have been striving for victories through an early-season non-conference schedule that included beatable Football Bowl Subdivision programs Massachusetts and Alabama-Birmingham and Football Championship Subdivision program Western Illinois, and its first five games in the Sun Belt Conference.
The Chants (1-7, 0-5) have managed just one victory in those eight games, however.
A trip to Southeastern Conference foe Arkansas on Saturday brings with it some different considerations, including a $1.5 million payout on Arkansas’ Homecoming weekend, and a judging of performance that won’t necessarily be based on a win or loss.
