Georgia runs away from Arkansas in season opener

FAYETTEVILLE — Georgia overcame a slow start and a first-half scare from Arkansas on Saturday.

The No. 4 Bulldogs scored 32 unanswered points after halftime and pulled away for a 37-10 victory over the Razorbacks in the season opener for both teams.

Arkansas lost its 20th consecutive SEC game. Georgia improved to 6-0 in games played in the state of Arkansas, including 5-0 in Fayetteville.

The Razorbacks led 10-5 after A.J. Reed's 25-yard field goal early in the third quarter, but the Bulldogs scored on their next three offensive possessions and added a defensive touchdown on a 30-yard interception return by Eric Stokes late in the third quarter.
