D-Line Duo Next Up On Thursday Radio Show

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – “On the Air with Bret Bielema,” Coach Bielema’s weekly radio show presented by Lindsey and Westrock Coffee, returns Thursday night starting at 7 p.m. at the Catfish Hole in Fayetteville. This week’s show will feature the senior defensive line duo of Taiwan Johnson and Deatrich Wise as the Razorbacks prepare for Saturday’s Southwest Classic showdown against No. 10 Texas A&M at AT&T Stadium.

Chuck Barrett, the voice of the Razorbacks, will host head coach Bret Bielema while fans can make reservations to attend the show by calling the Catfish Hole at 479-521-7008. Tickets are $25 and include all you can eat dinner buffet with catfish, shrimp and chicken.

The Texas duo of Johnson and Wise have helped the Razorbacks collect 10 sacks through the first three games to rank fourth in the SEC and tied for 15th nationally. Johnson has made 29 consecutive starts along the defensive line and collected his seventh career sack in Arkansas’ season-opening win against Louisiana Tech.

A year removed from leading the SEC in sacks (8.0) during conference play, Wise has picked up right where he left off through three games. The Carrollton, Texas, native has extended his streak of consecutive regular season games with at least a half-sack to seven. Wise’s 15 career sacks and just one away from the top 10 in program history.

The show will be carried throughout the state of Arkansas on the Razorback Sports Network and locally in Fayetteville on 92.1 FM, 99.5 FM and 93.3 FM. Each show can also be heard live on www.ArkansasRazorbacks.com.
