Pittman's Hogs take step forward, led by ground game and ball-hawking defensive effort.
When it mattered most, Arkansas' football team made Sam Pittman proud. The big uglies led the way on a decisive drive late in the fourth quarter as the Razorbacks ground out a 24-14 win in their SEC opener Saturday.
For the first three quarters, it looked like two playoff teams squaring off at Jordan-Hare Stadium in the tiny town of Auburn, Alabama. Somebody had to win, though, and Arkansas found a way. All seemed against the Hogs late in the third quarter, though. Momentum had changed as Auburn tied it 7-7, Arkansas' offense was consistently misfiring, the sellout crowd of 88,000 was at fever pitch, and Razorback fans feared the worst.
Arkansas stretched the lead with a field goal before giving up a 68-yard pass . Then came the decisive drive that led to a jubilant plane ride home to Fayetteville.
