'Why did he punt?' fans left confused after controversial decision by Arkansas head coach Ryan Silverfield

With 1:45 left in the game, down 24-17 at home against No. 14 Tennessee at their own 25-yard line, the Arkansas Razorback offense came off the field. That's the question Ryan Silverfield will have to ask himself after a disappointing loss. The Razorbacks had all three of their timeouts on the 4th and 10, and Silverfield decided to send the punt unit on the field. The crowd booed as the offense trotted to the sideline. The defense failed to prevent a first down, and the game ended. Tennessee were the victors, 24-17.
