Arkansas Thumps LSU 31-14 To Keep Golden Boot

Arkansas brings the Golden Boot back home with a 31-14 win over LSU Saturday.

BATON ROUGE (KFSM) - The Razorbacks thump LSU 31-14 to bring the Golden Boot back home with them Saturday on the road in Baton Rouge, LA.

Three long touchdowns drove the Razorbacks to a huge win. Alex Collins came away with a 80 yard for his longest touchdown run of the season. Dominque Reed began the day for the Hogs with a 52 yard run on a pass from Brandon Allen to get Arkansas on the board first.  Jared Cornelius added a 69 yard run on a reverse in the fourth quarter to cap off the big scores.

Collins finished the day with 141 yards and two touchdowns. Allen came away with 141 passing yards, including the 52-yard touchdown pass to Reed.

The Arkansas defense back to how we saw them early on in the season. The defense came away with 5 sacks of Tiger quarterback Brandon Harris. Arkansas came into Death Valley with only eight sacks all season. Another defensive highlight came in the first half when Dre Greenlaw sacked Harris to force a fumble, which was recovered and returned to the LSU 11 yard line by Brooks Ellis. The Hogs were able to capitalize on the turnover with a touchdown.

The Tigers didn't score until the final 24 seconds of the first half on a deflection in the endzone, which Malachi Dupre was able to come up with.  Their second score came from star running back Leonard Fournette who came away from Saturday's game with 91 rushing and 36 receiving yards.

Arkansas lead LSU the entire game to come away victorious 31-14. They now have won five of their last six games.
