I can see Arkansas going two different directions:

1) Arkansas utilizes McFadden and Jones very effectively, just as the offense has been laid out to do. A run heavy offense with well-timed play-action passes will completely shatter Florida's defense. IIRC, Arkansas only threw the ball 11 times in the Auburn game, and I can only expect Arkansas to do the same. Arkansas has the best 1-2 punch @ running back in the nation (sorry West Virginia). If they can win the time of possession and hang 300 + rushing yards on Florida, the Gators will have a long day. Florida's pass offense will give the Razorbacks some trouble, but not enough.

Arkansas - 27
Florida - 24

2) Houston Nutt continues to feel as if he has to force an element of his offense that is simply not needed much, and I'm talking about the passing game. Last week against LSU they tried to pass the ball way too often, and at wrong times when using two future NFL running backs could have done a much better job. Arkansas' last series last week saw 4 straight passes, with three of them keeping the runningback in the backfield to block. It just doesn't make sense to not utilize guys like McFadden and Jones as much as possible. Nutt tries to force the pass throughout the entire game, giving Florida a few more offensive series due to the 3 and outs, and, subsequently, more scores.

Arkansas - 17
Florida - 34
