10 Things To Know – Missouri
Arkansas, led by interim head coach Bobby Petrino, closes out the regular season by hosting Missouri in the annual Battle Line Rivalry. Kickoff between the Razorbacks and Tigers inside Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium is slated for 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 29. The game will be televised on SEC Network.
1 – This season, Arkansas has posted a program-record six games of 500 or more yards of total offense. Since Bobby Petrino returned to lead the offense, the Hogs have registered 10 games of 500 or more yards of total offense.
2 – TE Rohan Jones is the first Arkansas tight end to record a 100-yard receiving game since 2023 and the first Arkansas tight end to record both a receiving and rushing score in a game since at least 1997. Jones is the first Arkansas tight end with multiple 100-yard receiving games in a season since TE Hunter Henry in 2015. He needs just seven receiving yards to become the fourth TE in Arkansas history to register 500+ receiving yards in a season, alongside Hunter Henry (2015: 739, 2014: 513), D.J. Williams (2008: 723, 2010: 627), and Chris Gragg (2011: 518).
3 – RB Mike Washington Jr. is the first Razorback to eclipse the 1,000-yard rushing mark in a season since 2022, and the 16th player in program history to record a 1,000-yard rushing season.
4 – QB Taylen Green, who has posted 3,428 yards of total offense through 11 games this year, needs 368 more yards to break QB Ryan Mallett’s single-season program record mark of 3,795 set in 2010.
5 – WR Omega Blake ranks 13th nationally in receiving plays over 10+ yards with 34 this season. Blake is Arkansas’ leading pass catcher through 11 games this season, leading the Hogs in nearly every major receiving category: receptions (54), receiving yards (716), receiving touchdowns (4), and receiving yards per game (65.1). The Charlotte transfer has recorded two 100-yard receiving games this season, including his most recent 118-yard performance against Texas A&M on Oct. 18.
6 – DB Julian Neal, who is in his first year at Arkansas after transferring from Fresno State, has emerged as the star of the Razorbacks’ secondary. Neal leads Arkansas in interceptions (2) while adding 10 pass breakups through 11 games this season.
7 – Arkansas ranks 14th nationally with 263 first downs this season.
8 – The Razorbacks’ 225 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 – WR Raylen Sharpe has caught a pass in 40 consecutive games dating back to his 2022 campaign at Missouri State. Sharpe’s 39-game reception streak is tied for the second-longest nationally, trailing only Bowling Green’s Jyrin Johnson (44 games), while being tied with Missouri’s Kevin Coleman Jr.
10 – QB Taylen Green ranks fifth in career rushing touchdowns by an Arkansas quarterback (16), one behind QB Ron Calcagni (17) for fourth. Green has four multi-rushing touchdown games as a Razorback.
