Fayetteville--With six minutes left in the second quarter of the Razorbacks' Saturday night home game against Northern Illinois the scoreboard read 21-0 in favor of the Hogs. That score did not reflect the battle that was talking place between the visitors defense and Arkansas run-based offense. Only one of the three touchdowns scored at that point was the result of an offensive drive. A game opening kickoff return and a scoop and score by junior defensive tackle Darius Philon had provided the other two.

While Brandon Allen and company were probing the Huskies' defense trying to find a weakness Philon and his teammates were buying time for them.

Great article just keep plugging on Hogs.
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.
