Keys to the Ole Miss vs. Arkansas

By Anna Belson

Offense:


★ Focus on blocking Jaheim Thomas. He is the lead tackler for the Arkansas
defense.


★ Avoid forced turnovers; Arkansas is riled up and has high energy. Forcing
turnovers is one of their defensive coordinators’ main goals.


★ Arkansas’ main priority is man to man coverage. Dart needs to take advantage
of this by passing to receivers, such as Tre Harris or Jordan Watkins due to
their speed.

Defense:


★ Don’t be surprised if Arkansas goes for it on fourth down. They have a 63%
chance of converting.


★ Take advantage of their struggling offensive line.


★ Keep in mind that Quarterback KJ Jefferson struggled against the pass rush
on Saturday vs. Texas A&M.
