I think you guys win it. You hung with a probable playoff team for a half (maybe 3 quarters? can't remember off the top of my head).

I still think you guys get to 6 wins this season. Although I am not really sure how good your defense is.

As long as the Hogs have 1 more point at the end I will be happy and see what happens next.

Cause, if your D has trouble slowing the pace of the up-tempo auburn thugs down at a measly 500 foot elevation…………then do you understand what it’s going to be like for them chasing an up-tempo offense on the High Plains of West Texas at an altitude Seven times higher than that?…….

We're talking 3,500 feet mean sea level here. And dry air too....

Anyway. Lungs will naturally pump battery acid inside un-acclimated player's chests in the thin air of that altitude when they get winded. And it will burn.

I’d probably set the line at Texas Tech -7.5 based on elevation/relative-oxygen-levels alone to be perfectly honest

I'm sorry, but Oxygen molecule absorption rates will play a factor in this one. Texas Tech -7 is a fair line.

I wonder would some of you like Hogeye start to take this more seriously if Arkansas players end up on operating tables having spleens and gall bladders carved out after the Tech game

Keep your science...We put our faith in 300 plus pound offensive linemen and defense eating runningbacks.
