Arkansas Focuses on Controllables | Little Rock News

Arkansas head coach Ryan Silverfield is locking in his team on “controllables” — attitude, effort, and preparation — after last season’s heartbreaking losses by one possession. To simulate real-game pressure, they’re staging late-night scrimmages, including a 9:15 p.m. session mirroring their Utah game, and an early one to prep for Georgia. Silverfield’s pushing them hard — even showing them a scorching five-day forecast to build mental toughness for extreme heat. The offense lit up with explosive plays, but the defense needs sharper tackling, especially as fatigue threatens technique. With fewer recurring mistakes and a focus on refining habits, the Razorbacks are dialed in for their season opener.
