It means a lot actually.
Arkansas had no issues running the ball on the Auburn defense a year ago. The entire stable of RBs return as does a good crop of young Oline.
Arkansas rushed for 222 yards against Auburn last year. All of those RBs return.
I anticipate a great game. Will Arkansas win? I'm not saying that, but the opportunity for a win will probably be there for Arkansas, just as it was a season ago. Arkansas had two fumbles that changed the complexion of the game last year.
Must take care of ball. Force a turnover or two. Will be interesting to see how AU does without Mason there to hand the ball off to 25-35 times.

glad for Arkansas that they aren't opening with The Citadel.

It was 28-3 at one point in the second half. A KO return to the 13 gave you one of your two scores and a 4th down trick play set up the other.
There was no real opportunity to win.

thats not the only reason... but if you can use that excuse then so can we vs LSU (see how dumb that sounds)

must score, must prevent scores... it all sounds good on a board about FB

Curious to see if your QB will improve or be replaced by lil bro

Yes it would be. No Manziel, no Evans, in Columbia -home of the longest home win streak in the nation.

USC will be favored. Therefore, it would be an upset if A&M won. It's not that complicated.

I cried copious tears when the SEC lost the Natl champ game to the SEC/ It was disheartening

Wow Auburn posters sure are sensitive when it comes to Arkansas! If the Hogs opened with Alabama, then sure I understand. But they open with Auburn. AUBURN. A team they own lately.

this type of hook works better for aubs

Meh, AU always seems to be a trendy Week 1 upset pick when playing weaker teams.

If winning by 35+ is incredible fashion, then I agree.

How many SEC games did AU win in 2012?
One is not like the other, AU did not return the same head coach in '13.

It will be close, either way. Remember, Bert has never lost an opening season game.

Neither has Gus.
AU has not lost a Week 1 home game since 2005.
