The No. 15 Texas Longhorns are favored to pick up the second win of the Steve Sarkisian era on Saturday in Fayetteville against the Arkansas Razorbacks — the Longhorns are 6.5-point favorites on Fanduel.
Texas performed well in Sarkisian’s debut on the Forty Acres, commanding a safe lead for much of the 38-18 win over Louisiana that featured a strong first start from redshirt freshman quarterback Hudson Card. With several other teams in the AP Top 25 Poll losing, the Longhorns moved up six spots this week.
The first game for Arkansas wasn’t as heartening, as the Razorbacks were booed at home after trailing the Owls at halftime, but performed better in the second half, scoring on five of its final six possessions to win 38-17.
