3 areas to watch in Texas A&M football's Week 5 showdown vs. Arkansas

Texas A&M enters Week 5 with a 2-2 record following a heavy 35-6 defeat to LSU in Baton Rouge. Head coach Mike Elko has dismissed any speculation regarding quarterback Marcel Reed, despite the junior struggling with accuracy and completing just 55.4 percent of his throws to rank last among starting signal-callers in the conference.

The Aggies now look to rebound at home against a 2-2 Arkansas squad.

In addition to Reed's passing woes, the offense seeks a spark from its backfield combination of Rueben Owens II, Jamarion Morrow, and KJ Edwards. Owens has accumulated 248 rushing yards and one touchdown through the opening four games, while Morrow and Edwards have added 171 yards and a score combined.

They will attempt to find their rhythm against an Arkansas rushing defense that concedes 124.8 yards per contest.
