'Lying in the weeds'

ATLANTA -- History and circumstances indicate Chad Morris will not have great success in his first season with the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Morris is inheriting a team that went 4-8 last season, won one SEC game and is a common pick to finish last in the SEC West again this season.
