Twitter: “KJ Jefferson is who people think Anthony Richardson is”
KJ Jefferson needed less than 10 minutes to put Arkansas ahead of Texas A&M, 14-0.
Jefferson’s second touchdown pass, a 56-yard deep ball to a wide-open Warren Thompson, was a stamp with 5:26 left in the first quarter. Texas A&M fans were already losing their minds.
For Arkansas, a win over the Aggies int he Southwest Classic would be a second straight in the series after the Hogs lost nine in a row. It would also set up a showdown between them and undefeated Alabama in Fayetteville in Week 5.
But Saturday, it wasn’t about that. It was about Jefferson, now a dark horse Heisman Trophy candidate. Jefferson had 98 yards passing and 36 rushing halfway through the first quarter.
Call the Hogs🐗

KJ Jefferson is too damn fun dude. Absolutely refuses to stop dropping bombs on the rest of the SEC.

We almost put the word ‘bomb’ in our headling, but then you get into the whole ‘you can’t say bomb’ thing and, well, yeah. It was sick.
Texas A&M fans think they are cooked
we are about to get blown off the field bros
