Ryan Mallett passed for 215 yards and five touchdowns and added a rushing score as No. 14 Arkansas plowed past Texas-El Paso, 58-21, on Saturday.

Knile Davis added 182 yards rushing and a score and D.J. Williams led the receiving corps with 57 yards and two touchdowns for the Razorbacks (8-2, 4-2 SEC), who kept their hopes of an at-large BCS Bowl berth alive.

UTEP (6-5, 3-4 Conference USA) actually led for a while, 7-0 and 14-7, but the Arkansas offense just became too much to keep up with in the second quarter. Davis broke free for a 70-yard touchdown run to knot it at 14-14 and Mallett gave the Razorbacks their first lead on the next drive when he found Cobi Hamilton for an 11-yard score.

Mallett added touchdown passes of 32 yards and 15 yards in the second to send Arkansas into the break up, 35-14.

He added two more scoring passes in the third before taking the rest of the night off.

Leilyon Myers rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown for the Miners, who became bowl eligible with a win last week.
