Arkansas Upsets No. 16 Auburn in Thrilling SEC Clash

Hogs Rally in Second Half for Dramatic Victory

Robert Henry Leads Arkansas to Stunning Triumph

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- The Arkansas Razorbacks pulled off a stunning upset on Saturday night, defeating the No. 16 Auburn Tigers 31-28 in a thrilling Southeastern Conference (SEC) showdown at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Trailing 21-14 at halftime, the Razorbacks rallied in the second half behind the leadership of quarterback Robert Henry. Henry threw for 285 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winning score to wide receiver Isaiah Sategna with just over two minutes remaining. Sategna's touchdown capped a seven-play, 75-yard drive that showcased the Hogs' resilience and determination. Henry completed three passes on the drive, including a 25-yard strike to tight end Trey Knox that moved the ball into Auburn territory.

Auburn had a chance to tie the game in the final seconds, but quarterback T.J. Finley's desperation pass fell incomplete. The Razorbacks defense stood tall throughout the game, forcing three turnovers and recording four sacks.

Henry was named the game's Most Valuable Player after his exceptional performance. He completed 22 of 32 passes and led the Razorbacks in rushing with 45 yards. Sategna finished with five receptions for 85 yards and two touchdowns.

The victory marked the first time since 2015 that Arkansas has defeated a ranked opponent. It also snapped Auburn's three-game winning streak and dropped the Tigers to 2-2 on the season.

"This is a huge win for our program," said Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman. "Our players showed a lot of heart and determination tonight. They never gave up, even when we were down at halftime."

Auburn head coach Bryan Harsin credited Arkansas for its performance.

"Arkansas played a great game," Harsin said. "They made more plays than we did. We need to learn from this and get better."

The Razorbacks (3-1) will face a tough test next week when they travel to Athens to take on the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs. Auburn will return home to face the No. 22 Penn State Nittany Lions.
