Arkansas could be better than people think in 2014 and will be very good in time, said Kenny White, COO of Don Best Sports and a Las Vegas oddsmaker, on Sports Talk with

White: I have Arkansas winning six games. I feel they could pull an upset or two this season.
Certainly any time you have Alex Collins and Jonathan Williams in the backfield, along with an improved offensive line (several starters are going into their second or third seasons) and what by all reports is an improved quarterback in Brandon Allen, you have the chance to control the clock and put points on the board- which will be paramount against many of the SEC West opponents Arkansas faces this season.
The Razorbacks were highly competitive against LSU last season and White said he likes their chances against the Tigers in 2014.

White: I don’t like Arkansas playing at Mississippi State, but I like their chances against LSU at home.

White: I think Arkansas’ defensive line is better than it’s getting credit for, and I think the secondary will be a strength.

White: When people buy into the ideas of Bret Bielema, it’s going to be very good. They’ll be winning 10 games within the next few years.
White added that he thinks Arkansas hangs with Auburn in the season opener Saturday for a half. I agree with this as well. Kickoff is at 4 p.m. EST (SEC Network) at Jordan-Hare Stadium on the plains.

I was a little surprised by a couple of other strong takes from White, who had Arkansas in the Top 25 of his Power Rankings. “Arkansas is going to be very improved with a strong offensive line and two of the best RBs in the SEC. With a healthy shoulder, QB Brandon Allen is going to play much better.”
@vegasbedwards: Biggest stunner at seminar? Kenny White, 1 of most respected in betting industry, has Arkansas at #23 in his Power Rankings

Arkansas should be competitive in almost every game, could see them finishing with 6-7 wins if they get the right breaks

trying to even out bets
I think the line right now is around -21. Serious question - would you lay down $ with that spread? I think *cough*-*you're*-*right* *cough*.

I actually agree with this even though I'm in on the ban bet
I can see it now we rattle Jeremy Johnson for a half get a small lead. Then Gus puts Nick Marshall in and he calms the team down before leading the comeback to win, probably by 2 scores. When I agreed to the ban bet it was when I thought we could rattle Nick Marshall and his relief was a lacking in experience Jeremey Johnson. but oh well it is what it is, hopefully our defense can figure out both QB's on Saturday.

Well it's not like they'll actually follow through with the bet. Hell some have come out and said they have no intention of following through.
