Under sunny skies at Reynolds Razorback Stadium, the Arkansas Razorbacks held their first major spring scrimmage on Saturday, running about 109 plays in a controlled setting that revealed both potential and areas needing work. With five months remaining before the season opener, the session served its typical spring purpose: testing, evaluating, and refining.
**Green Steady, Offense Still Gelling**
Senior quarterback Taylen Green guided the first-team offense with efficiency, completing 15 of 21 passes for 173 yards and spreading the ball to eight different receivers. Although he didn’t throw a touchdown pass, his poise in the pocket and sharp distribution stood out. His top throws included gains of 33 and 18 yards to Charlotte transfer O’Mega Blake, a 31-yard pass to Texas A&M transfer tight end Jaden Platt, and a 17-yard completion to Fresno State transfer Raylen Sharpe. Green also showed off his legs, rushing for 50 yards and a touchdown on eight carries, not counting sacks. Despite those highlights, the offense lacked consistency in key moments, including a two-minute drill where Green was sacked and then threw an interception to linebacker Xavian Sorey, ending the drive prematurely.
