Arkansas @ Texas A&M preview

Last Meeting ( Sep 28, 2013 ) Texas A&M 45, Arkansas 33

Seventh-ranked Texas A&M looks to record its first 5-0 start since 2001 Saturday when it faces Arkansas at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX. The Aggies amassed 663 yards of total offense in the 58-6 win over Southern Methodist last week and are aiming for their third consecutive victory against the Razorbacks. "Everybody is talking about how we haven't played anyone yet," quarterback Kenny Hill told reporters. "We're just going to keep playing the way we have been and prove to everybody that we can play."

Arkansas has reeled off three straight wins since dropping its season opener to No. 5 Auburn. The Razorbacks have since found their groove, outscoring their opponents 174-49 during their last three games. They will likely need more of the same to beat a Texas A&M team that averages an SEC-best 55.3 points per contest. "Obviously this will be a tremendous challenge as A&M is a top-10 team for a reason," coach Bret Bielema told reporters. "I think they're averaging a score every seven plays."
