Young players must develop quickly for Arkansas State

August 22, 2017 By Todd Kimm

Blake Anderson

Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson says some young players will need to step up if the Red Wolves hope to make a run at a third straight Sun Belt Conference title. Arkansas State must replace five starters in the offensive line and four starters in the secondary from last year’s team that finished 8-5.

After opening against Nebraska the Red Wolves will host Miami and Anderson says some young players will need to grow up in a hurry.

Tough early schedules are nothing new for Arkansas State which opened 0-4 in 2016 before posting eight wins in the final nine games. That included a 31-13 victory over Central Florida in the AutoNation Cure Bowl.

“Athletically we have a lot of potential but also some inexperience”, added Anderson. “We have to get some really good athletes ready for a really good opponent.”
