I just don't get how Oklahoma is ahead of the Razorbacks. The only thing we have to compare the two is their records, more importantly their losses. Arky loses to Bama on the road and the Sooners lose to Texas Tech at home.

Yep. Non SEC schools need a nudge if they want a chance.

They started higher than us i pretty much all i can figure out....I think OU, OSU, and arkansas are all very similar teams and are about even....don't let OU fool you with the gay shark maneuvers they really don't know what a defense is either.

Arkansas had to stage a comeback to beat A&M by 4, OU blew A&M out.

Plus those close wins over Ole Miss & Vandy don't look good.

Over the past couple week with Oklahoma getting back into the BCS picture, ESPN talking heads have been using the word "Fluke" when talking about their loss to TT. They're trying to say the loss shouldn't count against OU now.

We won.

Losing to Vandy would be equal to losing to Texas Tech this season...

its about splitting hairs, and arkansas did not help its case with the aggies, ole miss, or vandy.

a lot of voters probably think oklahoma would win a head to head match up as well

I get it, you are saying a win by a less than expected margin on the road is worse than a loss to a less than mediocre team at home.

I'm not sure OSU could stop anyone from scoring at will.

im saying you both have a loss.

arkansas loss was to a great team, but were non competitive in it.
arkansas also has 3 other "suspect" performances

ou has blown everyone out except their one loss. voters tend to forgive teams they "thought" were great of having a single let down game.

totally possible.

well maybe not the first to 100 part, but damn close.

shame arky would end up in the cotton, they would deserve a bcs spot if they put up a good fight in the super bowl
