From Arkansas Comms:
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Arkansas redshirt junior offensive lineman Fernando Carmona Jr. has been named Southeastern Conference Offensive Lineman of the Week following his performance in the Hogs' 70-0 victory over Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Aug. 29, the league announced Monday morning.
Carmona was an integral part of the Arkansas victory on Thursday night as the Razorbacks accumulated an astounding 687 yards of total offense, including 279 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground. The Hogs' 687 yards of total offense were the third most in a single game in program history. Carmona and the Arkansas offensive line paved the way for eight rushing touchdowns during the win, nearly matching last season's rushing touchdown total of nine. Additionally, Arkansas did not allow a single sack during the win.
According to Pro Football Focus, the San Jose State transfer graded out at 78.0 in his 49 offensive snaps during the victory. Most impressively, the Razorbacks scored a touchdown on all 10 offensive drives in the season opener, becoming the first FBS team in 20 years to score a touchdown on their first 10 possessions of the season. The Razorbacks' 70 points were the third most nationally during week one, and the 70-point margin of victory was the largest achieved by an Arkansas team since 1928.
Arkansas continues its non-conference slate by traveling to Stillwater, Okla. this weekend for an 11 a.m. matchup at No. 17 Oklahoma State. The matchup will be televised nationally on ABC and mark the first meeting since 1980 between the two programs.
