Arkansas vs Western Kentucky – SEC vs Conference USA

Coaches

Chad Morris – The University of Arkansas head coach who started in the 2018 season. The razorback`s have had five different head coaches in the last ten years showing that they cannot get a solidified program. Morris is 0-14 in the SEC over the last two seasons and as a result, the razorback fans have called for a halt and for their head coach to be fired.

Tyson Helton – The Western Kentucky University head coach, who returned back to the program after a three year hiatus, became the head coach for the 2019 season. His record with the program is 5-4 as he regains control and starts shaping the team to his ideology. His strong suit is a powerful offense which he plans to execute through reps and time.
