Arkansas picked up their second conference win of the season against the Gamecocks in Fayetteville. Joe Adams, above, dives for the end zone in the first quarter against USC to put the Hogs up 7-3.
Broderick Green continued to develop as a serious offensive threat against USC. Green had one touchdown in the game.
Ryan Mallett proved against the Gamecocks he is the real deal.
Mallett went 23-27-0 for 329 yards against South Carolina and scored one touchdown on the ground. His 85.2 completion percentage set a single game school passing record for 20 or more passing attempts. Mallett is 152 yards short of the school's single season passing record.
London Crawford goes upstairs for a key third down conversion in the first quarter.
Tight end D.J. Williams came back on the radar with 137 yards on seven catches.
The Razorback defense stood strong against the Gamecocks. Quarterback Stephen Garcia was sacked twice.
Jerell Norton had a game-changing interception in the third quarter. Above has a big punt return for 38 yards. Adrian Davis, right, sacks Garcia.
Another big moment came when a bad snap went over Garcia's head. Jerico Nelson knocked the ball loose from Garcia and the play resulted in a safety.
More Broderick Green.

Arkansas 63, Eastern Michigan 27 (Oct. 31)
Arkansas' game against cupcake Eastern Michigan was a chance for the Hogs to get the bad taste out of their mouths after back-to-back losses to Ole Miss and Florida. They got it out for sure. Seth Armbrust created one of the biggest moments of the game by blocking an EMU punt and carrying it into the end zone for a touchdown.
Broderick Green set a school rushing record by going 99 yards from the line of scrimmage for a touchdown.
Ryan Mallett throws and runs.
Joe Adams, left, marked his return to action after suffering a mild stroke earlier in the season by scoring two touchdowns. Greg Childs turns up field after a catch.
Cobi Hamilton races for the end zone after a catch. He didn't score, but he set the Hogs up for another touchdown.
Ronnie Wingo Jr., left, and Knile Davis carry the ball against EMU. Davis had two touchdowns against the Eagles.
Cobi Hamilton and Ross Rasner cover EMU on a kickoff. Jermaine Love, right, makes a stop.
Lucas Miller and D.J. Williams celebrate Miller's touchdown in the second half.
Ole Miss 30, Arkansas 17 (Oct. 24)
Arkansas game with Ole Miss was marked as a must win by the Hogs and fans alike after letting Houston Nutt slip out of town with a win last year in Fayetteville. The only problem was the Hogs pretty much emptied their tank the previous weekend against Florida. Nothing went Arkansas' way in the game. Passes were dropped, tackles were missed, fans left early. This was the low point for Arkansas, they've rebounded since and are on track to finish with a respectable record and bowl bid. It was also a low point for me. I had my worst game of the season. This is all I want to show of the game. It's not much, but this was one to forget about anyway. Above, Greg Childs fights for extra yards on the Hogs' biggest pass play of the game.
Michael Smith leaps across the line.
This shot pretty much illustrated the whole game. The entire receiving corps, not just Greg Childs, dropped passes that have been money all season. I shot about 20 frames of him juggling this pass. I'm just glad the Hogs were able to put this game behind them. UGLY!
Several people have asked my why I haven't updated my blog in the past several weeks. It's been busy and a lot of crazy things have happened at work. I will be posting game again regularly and will have more catchup updates this week. Stay Tuned.......
