Kiffin Details What Rebels Must do to Beat Arkansas
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas Razorbacks quarterback Taylen Green has improved each of the past three weeks through the air. He will now face the best defense in college football this week with a chance to upset No. 19 Ole Miss.
Rebels’ coach Lane Kiffin knows his team still has a shot of an at-large bid to the College Football Playoff. All hope could unravel this week with a loss to unranked Arkansas and the inability to contain its dynamic quarterback.

“We got to do a great job containing [Taylen Green],” Kiffin said Monday. “This guy’s as talented and long as they come, and so we have to do whatever he tries to do, rush really well, contain them and have a really good plan. Arkansas offensive coordinator [Bobby] Petrino, for a long time, has done a great job on offense and given people a lot of problems just like he did with the [Aggies] last year, and did a good job against us.
“So like I said, this is a really well coached team all around. They made massive, they made major defensive improvements in Year 1, a year ago with the new defensive staff, and they’re doing a great job.”
“We have to do a great job of containing him. This guy is as talented and long as they come.”

Green has been one of the more accurate quarterbacks in the SEC over his previous three games completing 72% of his passes for 820 yards and six touchdowns and two interceptions. He is a threat to escape from the pocket on any given play and is deceiving based on his size alone as he ranks No. 2 in rushing yards by a quarterback this season.
Saturday’s game against Mississippi State was one of the best in Green’s career as he completed 23-of-29 passes for 314 yards and five touchdowns. His performance earned him SEC Offensive Player of the Week and is the first Arkansas quarterback since Austin Allen in 2016 to receive the honor.

LITTLE ROCK (KATV) — A bee swarm attack in Texas sent three people, including a firefighter, to the hospital this week, while Arkansas medical experts said most bee stings are not dangerous but can become life-threatening in certain cases.
Authorities in San Antonio said the three victims were hospitalized after being swarmed and stung by aggressive bees. Officials have not released details on what triggered the attack or the species involved.
Doctors in Arkansas said the biggest risk from a bee sting is not the sting itself, but a severe allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis.
“The concern when you have a bee sting is if you develop a severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis,” said Dr. Garrett Lewis, chief medical officer at St. Vincent Infirmary.
Lewis said warning signs include throat swelling, difficulty breathing and feeling faint, which require immediate medical attention.
“If you’re experiencing any throat swelling or severe shortness of breath, you need to seek medical care immediately,” Lewis said.
He added that people who are stung multiple times may also be at risk even without a known allergy, because each sting introduces additional venom into the body.
In the event of a swarm, Lewis said the priority should be escaping the area as quickly as possible and removing any stingers once safe.
“Seek water, seek indoor,” Lewis said. “Once you’re away from the swarm, you want to make sure that you are removing any stingers that might still be in your skin.”
Lewis also said symptoms such as dizziness, nausea and widespread hives can indicate a serious reaction.
While the Texas incident resulted in hospitalizations, a recent swarm outside a Little Rock business ended without injuries after bees briefly gathered on a tree limb before being safely removed by a beekeeper.
Lewis said the best prevention is awareness of surroundings and understanding when medical care is needed after a sting.
CORNING, Ark. (KATV) — Regulatory Enforcement Agents with the Department of Finance and Administration, along with local police, seized a significant amount of illegal THC products from Pacific Green in Corning on Tuesday.
According to the DFA, more than a dozen agents joined the City of Corning Police in the day-long operation that resulted in two arrests.
DFA agents seized more than 25 pounds of illegal products consisting of flower, vapes, and edibles.

“In addition to selling illegal products, investigators confirmed violations involving underage access at this location,” said David Potter, Director of the Regulatory Enforcement Division. “This retailer, which was located within 1,000 feet of a school, presented significant public health and safety concerns. We are proud to partner with the Corning Police Department in addressing these violations. We seized a substantial quantity of illegal products, including flower, vapes, edibles, and other items, during the operation. We appreciate the cooperation of local law enforcement and information received from the community that led to yesterday’s operation and stopped this blatant disregard of the law.”
