10 Things To Know – LSU

Arkansas, led by interim head coach Bobby Petrino, returns to action this weekend by visiting LSU. Kickoff is slated for 11:45 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 15. The game will be televised on SEC Network.

1 – RB Mike Washington Jr., the Razorbacks’ primary ball carrier, has rushed for a team-leading and career-high 828 yards and six touchdowns on 127 carries (team-high 6.5 ypc) through nine games. The New Mexico State transfer has logged four 100-yard rushing games as well as one multi-rushing touchdown performance this season.

2 – DL Quincy Rhodes Jr. leads the Razorbacks in both tackles for loss (14.0) and sacks (8.0) through nine games this season. The North Little Rock native ranks second in the SEC and is tied for eighth nationally in tackles for loss. His 14.0 tackles for loss are the most by an Arkansas defender in a season since DL Trey Flowers (15.5) in 2015. With two more sacks, Rhodes Jr. would become the first Razorback with double-digit sacks in a season since DL Jake Bequette (10.0) in 2011.

3 – Saturday’s matchup will be the 71st meeting between the rivals, with the Razorbacks seeking their first win over the Tigers in Baton Rouge since a 16-13 overtime win on Nov. 13, 2021. LSU leads the all-time series, 43-23-2. Four of the last five matchups between the teams have been decided by a single possession.

4 – Through nine games, QB Taylen Green ranks first nationally in yards of total offense per game (335.7) and second in yards of total offense (3,021). His 649 rushing yards are the sixth-most among FBS quarterbacks.

5 – WR Raylen Sharpe has caught a pass in 38 consecutive games dating back to his 2022 campaign at Missouri State. Sharpe’s 38-game reception streak is tied for the second-longest nationally.

6 – Since 2020, Arkansas has had 63 interceptions in 70 games. The Razorback defense tallied 13 interceptions in 10 games in 2020, 13 interceptions in 13 games in 2021, nine interceptions in 13 games in 2022, 12 interceptions in 2023, 10 interceptions in 2024 and has six interceptions through nine games in 2025.

7 – Under interim head coach/offensive coordinator Bobby Petrino, Arkansas ranks second nationally in plays of 10 or more yards from scrimmage with 167 total plays (99 pass + 68 rush) through nine games in 2025.

8 – The Razorbacks’ 219 consecutive extra-points made streak, which began on Dec. 5, 2020, is the second-longest such streak nationally based on date, behind Northwestern (Oct. 24, 2020).

9 – The Razorbacks are averaging 484.4 total yards of offense per game, good for eighth-best nationally. The offense is on pace to set the single-season program records for total yards per game and total yards per play (7.3).

10 – DB Kani Walker leads the SEC and ranks fifth nationally in passes defended per game with 1.38 a contest. Through nine games, he leads the Arkansas defense with 10 pass breakups, the most by a Hog since 2022. Thanks to his 89-yard pick-six against Auburn (Oct. 25), Walker became the first Hog to return an interception for a touchdown since DB Alfahiym Walcott did so against FIU in 2023. Walker’s 89-yard interception return was the longest by a Razorback defender since DB Rohan Gaines’ 100-yard return against Ole Miss in 2014.
