Ole Miss snapped a seven-game winning streak by Arkansas with a 71-63 win in Oxford Wednesday. Arkansas (12-4, 1-1) was led by Marvell Waithe's 15 points while B.J. Young added 14 points and Julysses Nobles scored 12.

The Cotton Bowl is behind Arkansas and the dead period ends today thus allowing the Razorbacks to start hosting recruits again. Arkansas will play host to nine visitors this weekend including four recruits from Alabama. Arkansas has 21 commitments for the Class of 2012 though some committed may sign with other schools or not qualify academically.

Another former Auburn player will be joining Gus Malzahn at Arkansas State. Kodi Burns, a Fort Smith native who played quarterback and wide receiver at Auburn, will work as an offensive graduate assistant.

And Jim Harris says the BCS needs not to wait to implement a "plus-one" format for its national championship teams.
