Vikings stand ground

FAYETTEVILLE -- The Arkansas Razorbacks lived in Portland State territory for most of the game in Saturday's season opener, but it didn't project into domination on the scoreboard.

Not even close.

In fact, the visiting Vikings got the ball back at their own 3 with 1:04 left in the game with a chance to drive for a tying touchdown. They didn't get far.

Arkansas safety Joe Foucha intercepted a tipped pass with 11 seconds remaining to seal the Hogs' 20-13 victory over Portland State before a crowd of 61,055 at Reynolds Razorback Stadium.

"Never will I ever apologize for winning," Arkansas second-year Coach Chad Morris said.
