An example of "just looking at the numbers" misses the real issue. Yes, for the most part Arkansas has a manageable schedule. Except for 4 straight road games, all against the meat of our schedule, without so much as a week off. If we survive that stretch with the team healthy and our spirits intact, sure, we should do well. If we don't it could all fall apart very, very quickly.

It depends on how well or poorly Beck and Bama's new QB play imo. We very well could breeze past both if you this year.

Arkansas can easily go 0-4 in that stretch.

It would be easier to space these teams out but it was done so intentionally.

We are the only team in the SEC that plays Alabama, Georgia, and LSU. We also have to play Arkansas and A&M. D

May want to check Auburn's schedule. Because you surely aren't the only ones.

One of us is replacing an OC, DC, and QB.

Hint, it’s not LSU
our OC and DC were the only reason we didn't win the last 2 Natty's, it's addition by subtraction

Take your complaints to the SEC office. I’d do it myself but I know it wouldn’t make any difference. SEC gonna do what they want.

Actually, it was your players playing like shite.

If you think new coordinators will run better practices, that can be an argument. But Bama fans ignorantly point to playcalls when the issues were execution.

If the players don't execute, your QB will still be running for his life.

I take it back only one of the last 2 were because of the coordinators. The other one was due to injuries as we all saw when Alabama beat your asses the first game and then again in the NC until we lost the second of our NFL wrs to freak knee injuries

Ironic.
Because UGA was winning in 2017 and 2018 and injuries hit us before giving up the leads both times.

But that was Different.

That was only due to injuries. Ironic. Isn’t it?

Not the worst in the SEC by far but do you really have it made if you play Bama, and both Tenner and LSU on the road?

I’d rather play them than Bama (home), Jawja (home), and LSU (away)

[quote]Vandy has some mildly interesting OOC matchups but otherwise, their schedule is nothing noteworthy. Same for Mizzou.[/quote
