A 15th consecutive SEC loss by the Arkansas Razorbacks was sealed last Saturday night when Alabama safety Landon Collins intercepted a fourth-quarter pass intended for Jonathan Williams.The Arkansas Razorbacks will have two sizable streaks on the line Saturday afternoon when they host No. 10 Georgia in Little Rock.
One streak is a source of pride. The other one not so much.
Arkansas has done its part this season to enhance the powerful reputation of the Southeastern Conference’s Western Division. The SEC West is 26-0 so far against opposition from outside the West, with the Razorbacks contributing with wins over Nicholls State, Texas Tech and Northern Illinois.
The SEC West improved to 26-0 last Saturday night when LSU clipped Florida 30-27 in the Swamp.
“We have a lot of pride in being in the SEC and in the SEC West,” Arkansas coach Bret Bielema said. “That is a really, really special deal, and whether or not we can continue that this Saturday, it has already been mentioned. To be honest, Georgia has been really good for a long time, and I’ve been a big fan of Mark Richt for a long time.
