Tyler Wilson is a 5th year senior, and Knile Davis is a 4th year junior. These two guys are not only two of the best players at their positions in the nation, but they are two of the best leaders in the nation as well.

Think back to the Ark-A&M game from last season when Arkansas went into halftime down 35-17, the week after Arkansas ran into a buzzsaw @ Bama. Tyler Wilson put the team on his shoulders, threw for over 500 yards, and brought his team back and won. OC Garrick McGee said Wilson "willed his team to win." When a reporter asked Wilson about that quote from McGee, Wilson responded "I think I just don't like to lose. Maybe you can see the competitiveness in my eyes, and the ship's not going down." As we know now, this game turned the tide for Arkansas as Wilson went on to lead his team to 11 wins, a bowl victory, and All-SEC honors.

If we were rebuilding this season or had a team full of underclassmen, I'd have little hope for a new coach going into next season. But we're stacked on offense, and have the potential to field an above average defense with our current personnel. With or without Petrino, Knile is still going to gash defenses, and Wilson is still going to do his thing.

Don't sleep on Arkansas.

8-9 wins I think, but no BCS IMO. No reason y'all shouldn't be a solid team this year though.

You know play calling has a lot to do with winning football games, right?

You know Petrino was in charge of play calling, right?

You know that can directly effect your teams outcome on winning games, right?

I don't thInk so. Petrino's dismissal will cost you at least 3 games.

Petrino didn't have a lot of blue chippers, brah. How is somebody else going to run Petrino's system? They can't...8-9 wins, brah.

Sure they can, but I don't know if BP was a great in game coach. If he was, it will be very tough. U better hope they bring in Leach or someone that airs it out. The only shot y'all have is putting up 40 a game.

Possible?

Sure.

And it could rain tomorrow.

Care to put a percentage on the possibility of Arky getting a BCS spot next year?

50%? 20%? 2%?

Bobby is the one who noticed what the A&M MLB was doing and is the one that called the plays attacking him. Not Tyler and not Garrick. Sure Tyler had to.complete the passed but that eye for detail is what we are going to miss.
