The Arkansas Razorbacks suffered a heartbreaking 28-21 loss to the Missouri Tigers on Saturday, despite holding a fourth-quarter lead. Quarterback Brady Cook’s 30-yard touchdown run and a subsequent two-point conversion put the Tigers ahead with just two minutes remaining. Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green led a late drive but fell short with an incomplete pass as time expired.
The Razorbacks struggled with turnovers, giving the ball away three times, leading to crucial points for Missouri. Running back Ja’Quinden Jackson was a bright spot for Arkansas, scoring all three touchdowns and rushing for 87 yards. However, penalties also plagued the Razorbacks, with 10 penalties for 72 yards, including two critical ones that directly led to Missouri touchdowns.
Despite the snowy conditions, both teams had success moving the ball, with Arkansas accumulating 377 total yards compared to Missouri’s 361. The loss dropped the Razorbacks to a 6-6 record for the season. Arkansas fans are disappointed with another close defeat, as the Razorbacks continue to struggle in clutch situations. It was a tough loss for the team, but they will look to bounce back in their next game.
