AUBURN, Ala. -- The University of Arkansas packed its backbone on its first SEC road trip under Coach Chad Morris, but the Razorbacks were undone by a series of special teams gaffes and could not generate enough offense to log an upset of Auburn.
The No. 9 Tigers scored on Noah Igbinoghene's 96-yard kickoff return and also cashed in points after two long punt returns by Ryan Davis to thump Arkansas 34-3 before a crowd of 84,188 at Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday.
Arkansas (1-3, 0-1 SEC) made strides after last week's humiliating home loss to North Texas, but did not have enough firepower to sustain drives against the Tigers (3-1, 1-1).
