ARLINGTON, Texas — After Arkansas' first two series Saturday night, it looked like quarterback KJ Jefferson and the 10th-ranked Razorbacks’ offense had No. 23 Texas A&M figured out.

Less than 10 minutes into the game, Jefferson had a bounce in his step and a confidence about him following a pair of long touchdown passes to Ketron Jackson (32 yards) and Warren Thompson (56 yards). Seconds after Thompson crossed the goal line, Jefferson celebrated with a shoulder shimmy.
