"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;For the complete listing of SI's preseason Top 25 rankings, click here.&lt;/em&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When coach Bret Bielema left Wisconsin for\u2028 Arkansas in 2012, SEC watchers were doubtful that his grunt-and-grind, pro-style scheme \u2028would work against like-minded bullies LSU and \u2028Alabama. After shutting out the Tigers and coming within a fumble of beating the Tide last year, \u2028the Razorbacks turned many of those skeptics \u2028into believers. Arkansas finished 7\u20136 but had \u2028more heartbreaking misses than Dustin Johnson\u2028 at the majors.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Four starters are back on an offensive line that was the conference\u2019s best, as are senior Jonathan Williams and junior Alex Collins, \u2028the country\u2019s only tandem of 1,000-yard backs \u2028last year. Most SEC quarterbacks need name\u2028tags, but third-year starter Brandon Allen gives\u2028 Arkansas consistency (20 touchdowns to just five interceptions in 2014) and experience (25 starts). He and new offensive coordinator Dan Enos will be limited in what they can do downfield, however, because the Hogs\u2019 receiving crew is the weakest in the league.\r\n.mobile .si-list.hide-mobile { display: none; }\r\n\r\n\r\nTop 25 rankings\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t1\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tOhio State\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t2\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tAuburn\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t3\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tTCU\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t4\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tNotre Dame\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t5\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tAlabama\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t6\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tBaylor\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t7\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tMich.

Immediate help comes from an unexpected place: freshman Hjalte Froholdt, a 6' 5\", 311-pound tackle from Svendborg, Denmark. He\u2019s got huge upside, just like Bielema\u2019s Hogs.\r\n\r\n&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Opposing coach's take&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The offensive line revels \u2028in being the strength of the team; they\u2019ll push you until you surrender. To\u2028 me, they show the value\u2028 of having an identity and not wavering from it, even when the results aren\u2019t there [such as during their 17-game SEC losing streak]. It will be interesting to see, with Dan Enos calling the plays, how they evolve on offense. \u2026 Those two backs [Williams and Collins] are as good as any pair in the country. Brandon Allen is solid, and his best receiving threat is [junior tight end] Hunter Henry, who made ridiculous catches and is perfect for their play-action game. They love to get him lost behind the linebackers in space. \u2026 The D struggled against Auburn and A&amp;amp;M\u2019s pass games last year; as the season went on, they played faster and more confidently, but they\u2019re not designed to win shootouts.\r\n\r\n&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;X-factor&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Allen\u2019s view was frequently frightening last year. \u201CA lot of defenses,\u201D he says, \u201Clined up nine guys in the box.\u201D Can junior wide receiver Dominique Reed (6' 3\", 4.3 speed) force teams to deploy more troops downfield? Reed, who had 16 TD catches at Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College last year, must quickly become a skilled route-runner.\u200B\r\n\r\n&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Schedule analysis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It\u2019s realistic for Arkansas to start 5\u20130 and enter the national title conversation.\u2028 After noshing on UTEP, Toledo and Texas \u2028Tech, the Hogs have a manageable stretch by SEC standards\u2014erratic Texas A&amp;amp;M in Arlington (Sept. 26) and a trip to rebuilding Tennessee (Oct. 3). Win those and the stakes will be high on Oct. 10, when the Hogs head to Alabama.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n\r\nARKANSAS 2015 SCHEDULE\r\n\r\n&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tdate\r\n\t\t\toPPONENT\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tSept. 5\r\n\t\t\tUTEP\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tSept. 12\r\n\t\t\tToledo (in Little Rock, Ark.)\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tSept. 19\r\n\t\t\tTexas Tech\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tSept. 26\r\n\t\t\tTexas A&amp;amp;M (in Arlington, Texas)\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tOct. 3\r\n\t\t\tat Tennessee\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tOct. 10\r\n\t\t\tat Alabama\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tOct. 24\r\n\t\t\tAuburn\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tOct. 31\r\n\t\t\tTennessee-Martin\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tNov. 7\r\n\t\t\tat Ole Miss\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tNov. 14\r\n\t\t\tat LSU\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tNov. 21\r\n\t\t\tMississippi State\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\tNov. 27\r\n\t\t\tMissouri\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
