The Razorbacks put heavy pressure on quarterback Brandon Cox in taking a 10-6 halftime lead. Irons said after the game that he missed some blocks in pass protection. Running backs coach Eddie Gran said Irons is still learning that part of the game. "It's more technique than anything else," Gran said. "He knows who to block, and that's a good thing. It's like he's a freshman. He's gotten better. He got better Saturday night. He's so much better on some things, but there are some things we still need to work on." Lester is out for Saturday's game at LSU. It is uncertain whether he will return in time to play against Ole Miss.
