ARKANSAS: The clock is already ticking for the Razorbacks. Every team
wants to make the most of spring practice, but the for the Hogs, there's
an extra urgency this year. New coach Bobby Petrino has some rebuild-
ing to do on offense after losing star tailbacks Darren McFadden and Felix
Jones. Petrino has been all business since he abruptly left the Atlanta
Falcons in December to take over the Razorbacks program. The players
will have to learn his system quickly if they want to have any chance at
a third consecutive New Year's Day bowl.

"We'll throw a lot at them and then we'll come back and repeat that. Then
we'll come back and repeat it again," Petrino said this week. "Then they
should have it. Once we repeat it three times, they need to have it or
we'll have an understanding that they will be sitting on the bench for a
while."

Center Jonathan Luigs is one player whose spot in the lineup is probably
safe. An All-American last year, Luigs might be Arkansas' most accomplish-
ed player. Things will be interesting in Fayetteville this spring.
