Razorback Brew 8/10: Ready for blastoff

Today, Rocket Sanders breaks down his best plays.

Now, what else did we mix into today’s Brew?

🚀 FILM ROOM: ROCKET SANDERS

It's the start of a new season. Which means it's time to step back into the film room.

Watch as former-Razorback Travis Swanson hosts star running back Rocket Sanders. Go inside two great football minds as they break down big plays from last season, as well as catch a little throwback film from another number 5 - Darren McFadden.

It's all here in the season premiere of Razorback Film Room.

🎥 GROWING UP GROVEY

Quinn Grovey rose to be one of the nation’s top college quarterbacks of the late 1980s. His story transcends far beyond his accomplishments on the field. 

Premiering tonight on Hogs+, “Growing Up Grovey” is a three-part series about football, family, and enduring one of the most baffling diseases known to man. With the same grace and determination he displayed on the football field, Grovey was able to return the unconditional love to the mom who had once taught her little boy how to love others and live life to its fullest.

🔺 Ready For Blastoff. For the second straight season, Arkansas junior running back Rocket Sanders has been named to the watch list for the Doak Walker Award, which is presented annually to the nation’s top college running back. Rocket is firmly in the conversation for being the country’s top running back following one of the greatest seasons by an Arkansas running back in recent memory. He would become the first Razorback to win the award for since Darren McFadden won it in back-to-back years from 2006-07.
