FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Arkansas' defense earned its first shutout since 2014, and the Razorbacks held Tulsa to 12 yards in the third quarter on their way to a 23-0 victory on Saturday.
The game ended a six-game losing streak for Arkansas (2-6) and marked the first win for freshman quarterback Connor Noland, who started in place of the injured Ty Storey.
"I'm just so proud of these guys," Arkansas coach Chad Morris said. "They've endured so much this season and keep giving the effort and intensity."
After a first-drive interception Noland, an Arkansas native, settled down and led the offense alongside running back Rakeem Boyd.
