Arkansas fifth-year senior defensive lineman out for Auburn game
The first Week 9 SEC Athlete Availability Report released on Wednesday night and the Arkansas defensive line took yet another hit.
Fifth-year senior defensive tackle Cam Ball was one of 12 Razorbacks listed on the report and one of two defensive tackles who are ‘out’. David Oke, who has been banged up since fall camp, is also out while Danny Saili was elevated to probable after being out last week. Interim head coach Bobby Petrino said Monday that he feels like Saili is “going to be good to go.”
Ball has played in 46 games for Arkansas with 27 starts in his career. In 2025 he has started all seven contests and logged 16 total tackles, including seven solo and 1.5 for loss.
Converted offensive lineman Keyshawn Blackstock is Ball’s backup followed by true freshman Kevin Oatis at third-string, while Saili is listed on the depth chart as the backup to other starting tackle Ian Geffrard.
Arkansas kicks off against Auburn Saturday at 11:45 a.m. CT and the game will air on the SEC Network.
