11AM games favor the home team, because the road team barely has time to check-in and get some sleep. At least that's what I've always heard.

Most teams travel on Friday morning prior to the game. They will arrive in time to do a walk through on Friday afternoon and then go back to the hotel, have a team dinner, position meetings, then to bed. They're not catching the redeye through ATL the night before the game.

They'll still wake up at the same time on Saturday regardless of the kickoff time. The only difference will be the type of meal(s) they have Sat morning and how soon they leave the hotel for the stadium.

I've always heard the opposite. Petrino used to talk about how he loved 11 am kicks for road games because the crowd isn't as into it. Also, though it doesn't really have anything to do with the game, the players are home in time for dinner and sleep in their own beds that night.

If we win... IF we win...

I hope we don't 'storm the field' and tear down goal posts and crap like that.
Yes, it will be a monumental occasion, much like healing rains after a years long drought - but because we've broken the conference loss steak as much as beating Alabama.

Raise 9 kinds of hell in the stands, whoop and holler, register on the seismograph.

But we haven't stormed the field since the '99 28-14 win over Tennessee (according to SDS) and I'd like to see us keep that 15 year streak alive.

Last game of the season, and you beat the #1 team in the nation on a binge of revenge with a field goal at the last second to win a trip to the sec championship is the type of game you rush the field on.

Nickel? Safety? Or I guess special teams is most likely.

Adding depth to the secondary. Bert didn't say where just said he would play.

Must have made some huge strides the past few weeks to go from RS to PT

I think he got hurt and that set him back.

Well I'm beyond excited about the future of our secondary. Toliver, Ramirez, Liddell, Floyd, etc. With Jennings teaching them, I can't wait to see those guys in 3 years.

I'm hoping this is the game where Korliss Marshall becomes a household name. He's just not been the game changer we hoped for. He looked that way at Auburn, but that little injury he took seems to have gotten him off of his game. I think the bye week will help him immensely. What a nice surprise that would be if the light clicked for him again, against an unsuspecting Bama.

It'll be fun....I think the hogs would easily be 4-1 if we'd played Bama's schedule. Hell we should be with ours.

Their dominance against the run isn't really proven given who they've played. If we do run on them at will, Saban will have a stroke before halftime.

If our dbacks bring it for 4 qtrs and keep #9 in front of them...we can win it. A fast start would put the crowd into a frenzy and lady momentum is huge in college football.

Who picked Arkansas to win? Was Sec Nation good today?
