Sam Pittman’s job will be about the only thing on the line for Arkansas when the Razorbacks host Florida International. Arkansas was eliminated from bowl eligibility last week in a 48-3 loss to Auburn. During a week in which two other disappointing teams fired their coaches — Mississippi State and Texas A&M — some were surprised Pittman made it through the weekend. He almost certainly needs to beat a bottom-of-the-barrel Sun Belt team to give himself a shot to make it past Thanksgiving. FIU has lost its last two by an average of 40.5-12.
