Captains pumped to play for Pittman, in front of fans

As happy as Arkansas fans are about getting the 2021 season underway Saturday, the Razorbacks themselves are thrilled to be playing before fans again.

Arkansas linebacker Grant Morgan, safety and New Orleans native Joe Foucha and offensive lineman Myron Cunningham, three of Arkansas’ five captains announced this weekend by Sam Pittman, shared that sentiment Tuesday.

“It’s going to be great,” Cunningham said. “I personally think the fans bring another aspect to the game. They bring a little bit of juice to the players and sometimes that is what we need.”

Arkansas didn’t get the chance to play in front of a capacity crowd last season due to covid-19.
