Arkansas uses two-minute drill to end prep for Louisiana-Monroe

By
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) The Arkansas football team went through a two-minute drill Thursday to conclude its final practice before meeting Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday at Little Rock.<br> <br> The Razorbacks worked outside during the first part of the 70-minute practice, then moved inside for the end-of-game drill.<br> <br> ``We had a good mental day and we played very fast both offensively and defensively,&#39;&#39; coach Houston Nutt said. ``That&#39;s what we want Saturday night. We want to win the turnover margin and take care of the ball. Those are the things we emphasized today.&#39;&#39;<br> <br> Nutt said several players were recuperating well from recent minor injuries, including defensive tackle Marcus Harrison, defensive end Zach Snider and flanker Cedric Washington.<br> <br> ``Marcus really came back,&#39;&#39; Nutt said. ``That&#39;s the thing I appreciate about these players, because it hasn&#39;t been easy. Nobody likes to lose. He came back and had one of his better days.<br> <br> ``Zach Snider had a concussion and it&#39;s a delicate issue,&#39;&#39; Nutt said. ``When he gets hit just right the headaches come back, so Dean Weber has to monitor him very closely. We&#39;re hoping he&#39;s going to be OK. I think Cedric Washington should be OK. He&#39;s got a slightly pulled hamstring, but I think he&#39;ll be full speed by Saturday night.&#39;&#39;<br> <br> Kickoff for the game at War Memorial Stadium is set for 6 p.m.<br> <br> (Copyright 2005 by The Associated Press.
