Arkansas Football vs. No. 4 Texas A&M: Initial Availability Report
The SEC released the first player availability report for the Arkansas football team's Week 8 game against No. 4 Texas A&M.
The most notable updates for the Razorbacks (2-4, 0-2 SEC) include defensive tackles Danny Saili and Danny Oke being listed as out, along with defensive back Quentavius Scandrett, who is out for the second consecutive week.
With the team thin at defensive tackle, Saili and Oke's absence may require defensive end Justus Boone to play inside, as he did against Tennessee. Freshman tackle Kevin Oatis also logged three snaps against the Vols.
[Boone is] a guy that has really worked hard and has shown a tremendous amount of toughness," Arkansas interim coach Bobby Petrino said. "He's mostly playing at end, but we did have some packages where he went inside and tried to get us a better pass rush.
