Arkansas football deserves a Nobel laureate for its continued innovation in the art of losing football games.

Just one week after turning the ball over on its final four possessions to squander a game against Auburn, Arkansas blew a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter to lose 38-35 to Mississippi State.

You could tell it was Halloween weekend from the consistent chorus of “boos” raining down in Razorback Stadium throughout Saturday afternoon’s contest. The Hogs outgained the Bulldogs 433-388, but that margin couldn’t make up for the monsoon of yellow flags littering the grass.

Arkansas broke the school records for both penalties (18) and penalty yardage (193) in a single game.
