Confused? Visit the Advanced Stats glossary here. Or just skip to the words. I won't be offended. (Okay, I'll only be a little offended.)

What did Les Miles call this game? "Completely unique"? Yeah, it was that. Arkansas tilted the field and did a strangely magnificent job of staying out of pressure situations and passing downs, and the Hogs rode a perfect second quarter as far as it could take them. And then they allowed a 99-yard drive to the backup quarterback.
