"Not enough is made about the job Boyd did last year for an Arkansas team that went 2-10 and finished 0-8 in the SEC for the second year in a row. Even with the turmoil at quarterback that allowed teams to sell out to stop Boyd and the running game, Boyd ran for 1,133 yards and 8 touchdowns, averaging 6.2 yards per carry.
He was also useful in the passing game, making 19 catches for 160 yards. He doesn’t just feast on weaker foes, either. Against Kentucky’s stout defense last year, he ran for 134 yards and 2 scores:
He also had 114 yards and a touchdown against Mississippi State. With Feleipe Franks stepping in to stabilize the quarterback position this fall, defenses are going to have to respect the Hogs’ passing game more. That could (and should) lead to a career year for Boyd in the backfield. "
