U of A SID: Intensity Level Up During Razorbacks’ Practice

Consistency is the one aspect of the offense the coaches are still looking for. The execution is improving, but the Hogs must eliminate the little mistakes that kill drives.

"Offensively, we will have four or five good plays, and then we will have an illegal procedure or an illegal shift," Nutt said. "Those are the things that you just can’t have. We are just going to have to keep working hard on those types of things."

Nutt also praised the Hogs defense and their progress since the arrival of new defensive coordinator Reggie Herring.

"The defense has progressed very well," Nutt said. "It has been a process and that happens anytime there is a change like that. The new terminology and new system take awhile, but the guys have bought into the system, and they are playing hard. We just have to keep improving and keep coming."
