Utah stuffs Arkansas, 43-10
- Injury: Arkansas hung around long enough to score an opening-drive field goal, but it was all downhill from there as No.

Five Razorbacks we want to see more from in Week 2
- Arkansas targeted Chris Marshall 10 times in the 31-14 opener against North Alabama. Ismael Cisse also returned with a catch-and-run touchdown after missing last season through injury; the writer describes him as steady in offseason camps when healthy. Cisse benefiting from extra attention on Marshall is a projection, not a confirmed target allocation.
- Arkansas WR Jelani Watkins had two rushes for 21 yards in the opener and appeared on the official Week 2 depth chart. The writer also noted his ability to retain a catch through contact and wants more touches for his speed; the report does not establish a larger snap share or a new starting role against Utah.
- Arkansas LB Ben Bogle recorded three tackles, a tackle for loss, a pass breakup and a quarterback hurry against North Alabama. The writer sees a possible additional veteran contributor at linebacker, while stressing that the evidence is one game against an FCS opponent, not an established role change.
- The Arkansas column flags offensive-line play, particularly on the right side, as needing improvement against Utah. It proposes a closer look at Adam Hawkes if those issues persist; this is a writer's personnel suggestion, not an announced benching or a confirmed change to the starting line.
- Arkansas RB Cam Settles is still described as working back from injury after a notable spring-game performance. The column expresses interest in seeing him once he returns but gives no return date, Week 2 clearance, practice status or planned workload.

4th and 5 defense
- OL/DL: Talent, less turnover on the OL/DL, more experienced HC, more expensive NIL roster.The betting line is a combination of a bad first game and last years record.

Can Arkansas offense get back on track against stout Utah defense?
- Arkansas had four offensive penalties and three turnovers in its opener against North Alabama; Tim Cramsey said the film still showed holds, sacks and giveaways despite relatively few missed assignments, so his hope for a cleaner Week 2 is not confirmation those execution problems are resolved.
- Cramsey's review put Utah's opening-game blitz rate near 60%, compared with 27% last season, while stressing that the pressure designs remained familiar under new coordinator Colton Swan; he explicitly questioned whether the higher rate would persist against Arkansas.
- Arkansas' protection communication is a specific concern against Utah's varied pressures and man coverage behind them: the preview points to KJ Jackson's opening-game sack-fumble after a free edge rusher and highlights the quarterback and offensive line's need to recognize where rushers are coming from.

Shoutout to Jasper Parker
- OL: If you go back and watch the strip sack fumble, KJ actually let go of the ball before contact.

Right tackle?
- QB/OL: tackle is the most important O line position with a left-handed QB because that is his "blind side".

Rewatching the game
- OL: This is my thought too, just telling myself it was KJ jitters, hiding of the playbook, and o-line off game.

General thoughts
- QB/OL: My concern is we saw a QB holding on to the ball too long, making poor decisions & throws behind an OL that couldn't block & WRs that couldn't get separation .
