Arkansas Sports Roundup: Basketball Recap, Arkansas earns first 2019 football commit

I know it has been awhile. I haven’t talked about my home state Razorbacks in a long Tim.

Arkansas earned their first 2019 football commitment today. Following his visit, 2019 defensive lineman, Trevor Hopper made his commitment to Arkansas.

Arkansas basketball is 20-9 (9-7) in the SEC after winning seven of their last eight games. The Razorbacks just beat Alabama on Saturday night, 76-73, with senior guard Daryl Macon leading them in scoring. Arkansas will play SEC-leader and number twelve-ranked Auburn and Missouri to close out the season.

Who should start for Georgia: Jake Fromm or Justin Fields?

Thank you to ESPN’s article: http://www.espn.com/college-football/insider/story/_/id/22440336/georgia-bulldogs-clemson-tigers-lead-quarterback-future-power-rankings and FlemLo Raps, a YouTuber who just came up with a video similar to my blog post for the post idea.

Who will win Georgia’s Quarterback battle? Will it be Jake Fromm who led Georgia from a play way to win the National Championship or last season’s consensus number one overall high school football player in the country, Justin Fields a dual-threat with loads of potential? I mean why redshirt a guy with Fields’ talent? Jake Fromm has proven, though, that he is a winner. He took the starting job from a former five-star in Jacob Eason and then led the team to the National Championship, and almost won it.Justin Fields is one of the best athletes at the Quarterback position that we’ve seen at the high school level. Jake Fromm was the star of the first season of “QB1 Beyond the Lights” and Fields will be the star of season two. I mean, injuries could definitely happen and we have yet to see spring ball, so my pick is Jake Fromm who is a proven winner at the collegiate level.

Can Cam Akers rush for over 2,000 yards this season at Florida State?

I know guys. I haven’t blogged about college football in a while. Remember when I said that most of my posts would be about college football? Well, that’s changed. Change is common. It’s college basketball season but I thought I do a college football blog about once a week. No more questions of the day now that I’m blogging on just one website.

Cam Akers was a highly-touted five star athlete out of Mississippi. He could play anything from QB to running back and even defensive back sometimes. His best position though was running back and he chose Florida State over instate Ole Miss and various other power five programs. Cam Akers and the Seminoles were National Championship contenders and ranked number three in the nation to begin the season. That soon changed after 1.Alabama blew the numen-three ranked Seminoles out,24-7. Florida State QB Deondre Francois was knocked down hard during the game resulting in his Francois’ only season action. Francois was done for the season. After the season Head Coach Jimbo Fisher left for Texas A&M. This all leads up to Cam Akers who was expected to be a superstar in his first season in Tallahassee but that didn’t happen. He rushed for 1,024 yards. He was a star not a super-star. Can he rush for 2,000 yards? With Willie Taggart at the helm as the new Head Coach I think he can. Akers has the pieces around him to do it. Akers will be an NFL prospect for the 2020 NFL draft after having rushed for over two thousand five hundred yards this season. So essentially, is Cam Akers rushing for one hundred yards, over or under? Over.
