Arkansas tops Tennessee to end three-game skid

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Arkansas finally found a way to win a close game. Alex Collins rushed for 154 yards and two touchdowns Saturday as Arkansas defeated Tennessee 24-20 to snap a three-game skid. The Razorbacks (2-3, 1-1 SEC) entered the night having lost their last 10 games decided by seven points or less, with nine of those defeats coming since Bret Bielema took over the program in 2013. "At some point in your life as a man, you've just got to finally take what the world wants to give you," Bielema said. "You can't keep giving it away. Our guys really played well today. There wasn't going to be anything but full throttle for four quarters." Arkansas erased a 14-0 deficit and hung on despite wasting a couple of second-half trips to the red zone on a blocked field goal and an unsuccessful fake field-goal attempt.
