Arkansas Buries Tulsa 34-6 Behind Marshall's 195 Yards
Chris Marshall caught nine passes for 195 yards, and the rest of Tulsa's afternoon went about as well as you would guess from a 34-6 final. Arkansas never trailed, never even let it get tied, and moves to 2-2.
The Razorbacks took a 3-0 lead on a Max Gilbert 23-yard field goal, and KJ Jackson ran in from 10 yards for a 10-0 lead before the first quarter ended. Gilbert added a 35-yarder and a 29-yarder with no time left, so it was 16-0 at the half. Gilbert would finish with four field goals (the last from 38 yards).
Tulsa's one moment came in the third quarter, when Damari Alston scored from a yard out. Even that was spoiled by a failed two-point pass. Arkansas needed less than two minutes to answer, and Jackson found Marshall from 20 yards for 23-6. Jackson added an 11-yard run late in the fourth, with a successful two-point pass to Sutton Smith, to close it at 34-6.
The Hogs had 443 total yards to 241, and Tulsa lost two fumbles without throwing a pick. Arkansas threw one interception. Stack up the numbers: 309 passing yards against 176, 134 rushing yards against 65. It was not close in any column.
Tulsa is still 3-1, but that is a record that had a hard time surviving this one.
Fantasy takeaway: Marshall and Jackson both set season highs, and Jackson did it with two rushing touchdowns on top of 309 yards through the air.
