3 Arkansas players who could give Tennessee a hard time in Week 6 ft. Taylen Green

The Arkansas Razorbacks, under embattled coach Sam Pittman, fell to an agonizingly close 21-17 defeat to the Texas A&M Aggies in Week 5. They welcome the high-flying No. 4 Tennessee Volunteers to the Razorback Stadium in Week 6 and are firm two-touchdown underdogs.

So, could the Hogs knock off the Vols, and which three players could give Tennessee quarterback Nico Iamaleava and Co. problems during the clash?

#3. Landon Jackson

One of the most important members of Sam Pittman's team is defensive end Landon Jackson. He could prove key in any effort against the Tennessee Volunteers.

Jackson put in a stellar performance against the Texas A&M Aggies last week, registering eight tackles with three for loss while adding two sacks.

He became the only Arkansas player since 1997 to tally two games of eight tackles, three or more for loss and two plus sacks, showing why he got a preseason All-SEC nod.

#2. Ja'Quinden Jackson

Running back Ja'Quinden Jackson has quickly become a key cog in the Hogs' running game. This season, he had three 100-yard plus rushing games and three multiple-rushing touchdown performances.

Jackson transferred from Utah and showed his class during the Razorbacks' narrow loss to the Texas A&M Aggies when he carried the ball 10 times for 37 yards and one touchdown.

Jackson is ranked No. 1 in the Southeastern Conference in rushing yards (509), No. 2 in rushing touchdowns (9) and No. 3 in rushing yards tallied per game (101.8 yards).

#1. Taylen Green is Arkansas's greatest weapon

Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green transferred to the Razorbacks from the Boise State Broncos last season. He has gone 88-of-162 on 54.3% completion for 1,236 yards, five touchdowns and five interceptions in the first five games of the season. He carried the ball 72 times for 331 yards and four touchdowns.

Green's 4.6 yards per carry will be crucial against the Volunteers as the Razorbacks' rushing offense is ranked No. 3 in touchdowns (18) and No. 15 in rushing yards per game (240).

While the Tennessee Volunteers have won 13 of the team's 19 clashes, the Arkansas Razorbacks have won the last three meetings between the sides. The Vols' last win in Fayetteville was in 2001.
