2 OU and Utx may think some games are "gimmies" like Iowa State and you just do not appreciate Starkville till you have been there.
This is what you dimwits refuse to understand no matter how many times we say it. From 2017-2020 OU went 2-2 against ISU. The same may happen with OU and Miss. St and you dumbfricks will go “see we told you no easy games in the SEC” and we’ll say “hey dipshits, we know, Miss. St. is the same as Iowa St” and you mouth breathers will go “uh, well, uh, SECSECSEC it just means more”.

56-23 lol it’s not really even a rivalry but that record. I pretty sure that this point Rkansas would rather watch the Polar Express than play Texas.
We pretty much let our walk-ons watch movies when they want—our starters would rather play Texas.
You have to reach back many decades to get that record you cited above. And yeah from about 1894-1970’s (not including our ‘64 national championship which included beating #1 Texas and then followed the next year with beating #1 Texas again), you did in fact own us. But recent history tells a much different story. If you look at the more modern era, say from 1980, which is still a long time ago for most who frequent this board, you would find that the series is Texas 10 to Arkansas 8, hardly the level of dominance which you are trying to project with your post.
And I will repeat it for the sake of those who may have missed it from the back row that Arkansas leads the series over Texas 5-2 since Arkansas joined the SEC.
I think the lesson you should learn is that have your team come to the superior conference, build character, “run the gauntlet”, and your program should improve as a result. Who knows, when it is all said and said and done Texas, season and and season out, may actually be able to be competitive with Arkansas once again.

Wrong, maybe your Draconian poll.

So in summary, Texas still owns you even after they stopped “owning” you.

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit is it?

Texas has 10 wins to Rkansas 8 even after the series became more competitive.
Sounds like you’re still our little piggy.

Look dude I know all about you and your feelings about Arkansas so you do you. Here’s a link explaining it all if you are interested but manifestly I know you are not. LINK

Playing LSU, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and Auburn is harder than playing Kansas, Houston, Baylor and Iowa State. The only people that can’t admit this are insecure.

What happened when BYU played Rkansas this year?

Deflect much? Still doesn’t change our recent record vs. you.

If you’d look at who that comment is to, you’d realize it’s a completely different conversation.
But I’m glad it offended you.

Will Arkansas fans still talk about being "4-3 against Texas since 2000" after we run your team out of the stadium next year?

I don't know how it compares today, because I don't keep up with other conferences that much, anymore. When we joined 30 years ago, the SWC was 2-3 tough games and several walkovers. The SEC wasn't as good as today, but there would still only be 1-2 walkover games.
Arkansas earned it's living upsetting Texas, but we could no longer concentrate on just one game (although that tradition still carried over to Tennessee and then LSU with the Thanksgiving game). In the SEC, you might win the big game, but it'll cost you next week, unlike how the SWC used to be.

Mitch Morse went down against Vanderbilt, then Meiners did, too. And Justin Britt just went down against Florida.
