In this story:

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – We know Arkansas fans can be busy and often don't have time to keep up with Razorback news, much less what's going on around the SEC. That's why each week we gather the most intriguing stories from around the league and put them all in one place.

In this edition of the SEC Round-Up, several players simply disappeared from their team's roster, if speed kills, then Razorbacks have opened up slaughter house, LSU baseball picks off several SEC players in portal, and numerous updates of SEC players in the NFL. In addition, multiple teams give first glimpse as to who might win the quarterback job, and the Petrino brothers once used an SEC quarterback for each brother's personal gain.

Also, SEC basketball teams compete around the globe, a haircut becomes big news in Georgia, and we dive into the data around which positions are great for 3-stars and which are a waste of a scholarship. All that and so much more on this Saturday edition of the SEC Round-Up.
