1. Arkansas' offense is lifeless.

Missouri's defense is good. That is clear. We know that. It's so hard to judge how food it is today with how anemic Arkansas' offense is, though.

Here are the Razorbacks' drives this half:

1. Three plays for minus-five yards (punt)
2. One play for 22 yards (fumble)
3. Three plays for three yards (punt)
4. Seven plays for 38 yards (punt)
5. Three plays for four yards (punt)
6. Three plays for minus-six yards
7. One play for three yards (half)

Obviously, Missouri is doing its part in making them punt, but this Steelers offense Arkansas is rocking with swing passes, QB draws and halfback dive plays is definitely helping.

2. Brady Cook's passes have been all over the place.

Accuracy has been a slight issue for Cook in this first half. He's overthrown receivers, thrown behind them and led them too far out. With 9:28 left in the second quarter, he's 5-of-12 for 65 yards.

3. Jamal Roberts sighting

Robertsgot his first carry of the season with about 7:30 left in the second quarter. the freshman running back had a carry for a loss of one. But he's a player this coaching staff really likes.

4. A couple of plays later there was a little skirmish followed by a full-on fight.

A roughing the passer penalty on Cook led to a squirmish on the Arkansas sideline. I saw Armand Membou and Theo Wease get into a little thing on the sideline but nothing serious.

The next play a full-on brawl erupts. Membou's helmet is off and he's throwing punches. He is later ejected with two Razorbacks. Marcellus Johnson is in for Membou.

Looks like Cam'Ron Johnson instigated the whole ordeal.

Membou should still be good for the bowl game since this happened in the first half.

5. On the next play Cook scores.

So, after the melee, Brady Cook runs it in from three yards out for the touchdown.

6. Every play to the sideline is starting to be something.

Any play near the sideline is almost always going to be a fight. Not even joking. Personal fouls for everyone.

7. Schrader is about to put up two bills in the first half.

Three straight games with over 100 rushing yards in the first half. He's at 22 rushes for 192 yards and a touchdown.
