Well, another Tuesday practice has ended. I thought I’d drop a few tidbits on the blog before I went home to walk the dogs and make some dinner.
Arkansas wide receiver London Crawford said he has moved past his infamous fumble in last year’s 41-38 loss at Alabama. In the third quarter of that game, he caught a pass and ran toward midfield, only to fumble the football despite not being touched. No Alabama defenders were near him.
“Honestly, I was over it the next play in the game. Regardless of what happened and what was said, I look forward to the next play,†Crawford said Tuesday evening. “You can’t dwell on what happened in the past when you’ve got the present and the future right there.
“Right now, I’m just really not even worried about that pass. That’s way last year. I’m worried about going out and making plays with my teammates this year.â€
Crawford has dropped several passes and been overshadowed by Arkansas’ freshman receivers so far this season. But Arkansas offensive coordinator Paul Petrino said the junior has practiced well over the past few days.
Meanwhile, Arkansas freshman running back De’Anthony Curtis said he’s fully recovered from the sprained knee that has bothered him over the past few weeks. This is a good sign for the Razorbacks, considering starter Michael Smith is a small back who got tired in the Sept. 6 win over Louisiana-Monroe.
“I think I’ll be ready for this game. I’ve fully recovered,†Curtis said. “I feel good running up and down the field. I’m about 100 right now.â€
That’s it for now. Check out Tuesday’s newspaper to read Robbie Neiswanger’s story on all the freshmen who will be playing for both Arkansas and Alabama on Saturday.
