FAYETTEVILLE — Dominique Johnson did not factor into Arkansas’ season opener against Rice last week until the game’s final minutes, when he added a late touchdown to set the 38-17 final score.

In the biggest game of the running back’s career against No. 15 Texas on Saturday, he was a central figure in a number of key plays. His contributions helped Arkansas (2-0) make a statement as it drubbed the Longhorns 40-21.
