BestofArkansasSports: Hogs Deprived of Whupping TCU and Its “One-Trick Pony” Offense
Now that COVID-19 has had the last laugh, and Feleipe Franks looking like a lock to enter the NFL Draft, the biggest question left in the 2020 Razorback football season is whether Jonathan Marshall will join him or return for 2021.

In an otherwise forgetful season finale, Marshall and defensive teammates, along with a wet turf, showed out against Alabama’s superstar tailback Najee Harris by holding him to 3.3 yards per carry — less than half of his 5.9 average on the year.
Marshall was a big reason that Arkansas was set to win the Texas Bowl that was canceled today. Too many TCU players, unfortunately, tested positive for the coronavirus.
