Coach Petrino meets media after week one victory

University of Arkansas head football coach Bobby Petrino addressed the media Monday after the Razorbacks' 44-3 season-opening victory Saturday over Tennessee Tech in Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. The UA head coach, in his third season at the helm, was happy with the effort made by the squad's defensive unit. "I was impressed with our defense," Coach Petrino said. "We have a better understanding of what we are doing, which really allows us to play faster and not hesitate. We did a nice job of tackling and getting guys to the football. We played aggressive. It was a good opening game for us on defense." Coach Petrino noted that certain Razorbacks adjusted well after finding new positions on the Arkansas defense. Linebacker Anthony Leon, who played safety for UA last season, led the Razorbacks with eight tackles against TTU, including six solo stops. "(Leon's) fast and aggressive and did a very nice job of tackling," Coach Petrino said. "He's big and long and can make good tackles. UA safety Rudell Crim made two tackles while covering the defensive secondary from a new position. Crim started every game at cornerback for Arkansas in 2009.
