I’ll be frustrated like me. ‘ The sixth-year coach, whose record is 32-33, added: “As long as I’m the head coach in Arkansas, I’m going to fight.” But with a sold -out crowd and national TV audience seeing the collapse of the Razorbacks, the pressure on Pittman’s work reached a boiling point. The violation of Notre Dame against Arkansas Notre Dame dominated from the beginning, led by the Redshirt Freshman -quarterback CJ Carr, which tied a four -pass program record in the first half alone and collected 294 meters. Jeremiyah Love, a Heisman contender, set fire to Arkansas for 126 total meters and four Touchdowns. The Fighting Irish recorded their first six possessions, with drifting of 75, 73, 75, 70, 75 and 45 meters, with a 420 -meter halftime.

The Quarterback of Arkansas, Taylen Green, the leader of the country in total offense entering the match, struggled strongly and in the first half completed and beaten and knocked only 6 of the 15 passes. Notre Dame’s 56 points was the second highest total they have ever achieved against a SEC team, exposing the Razorbacks’ vulnerabilities. Defensive misery sealed the result that the Razorbacks’ defense, led by coordinator Travis Williams, was a weak point. Unable to tackle, cover recipients or force turnover, Arkansas allowed Notre Dame to move at will.
