Matlock's/Young's Regiment

Please excuse my monomania on the subject of Matlock's/Young's Arkansas Infantry at Prairie Grove, but there is some evidence suggesting that the regiment went to pieces after Young's death. This is of course reminiscent of the behavior of another Arkansas regiment in the same battle.

My question is this: was Matlock's/Young's regiment also composed primarily of inexperienced conscripts? Was there any prior evidence of "problems"? Thanks in advance.
