Broyles Expresses Worries On Air Force Prep
FAYETTEVILLE Ark AP Coach Frank Broyles worries over Air Force defensive schemes and limited time to teach Razorback blockers. Offensive line coach Don Boyce must cover Air Force defenses quickly as Arkansas prepares for a season opener at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock Saturday night. The sellout crowd marks a first since the stadium's artificial surface was installed. The team practiced in full pads then lighter work, with defensive tackle Leotis Harris cited for noticeable improvement in quickness.
