No. 14 Arkansas beats La Monroe 31-7

Ryan Mallett completed 28 of 43 passes for 400 yards and two touchdowns as No. 14 Arkansas came on strong in the second half and beat Louisiana Monroe 31-7 on Saturday night. Arkansas struggled to move the ball and led only 7-0 at the break, drawing some boos from many of their fans at their home away from Fayetteville. Razorbacks fans filled the building even though it was officially a ULM home game. Coach Bobby Petrino used the running of Broderick Green and Dennis Johnson to complement Mallett's passing.
"We didn't play the way we wanted to play in the first half," coach Bobby Petrino said. "We certainly didn't convert the third downs and that's what really hurt us in the first half."
"I'm not happy at all with our turnovers in our first two games," Petrino said.
