I'm watching Rutgers play Cincinnati right now and how in the hell did you lose this team?

I must admit not watching much Arkansas this year, but I've followed the stats from your games.

I don't think it would be a stretch to say that Auburn last year was a better team than what you're fielding today.

So, I guess there's hope for next year.

They scored more points than we did.

Appreciate your concern.

We played with our backup QB who is worse than Allen.

We also blew a 17 point lead in the second half.

I do recall that, but just have a hard time seeing it happen.

And I know this comes across as a flame, but it was just a knee jerk reaction from watching Rutgers play.

Check the box scores from the two Rutgers games, Nova was good at passing the ball, we suck at defending the pass.

Its pretty much as simple as that.

Rutgers claimed the game to be the biggest home game in school history, think about that for a moment, broke out a black out, etc.

We were thinking if things went really, really, really well we would have shot at a bowl game...

Well, as a long time, avid LSU supporter, this gives me a boost of confidence. Considering the way our last games of the season typically play out, maybe this year will be a bit more enjoyable than that cold,windy day in Fayetteville last year.

Great venue, BTW. Enjoyed the trip.

Our defense imploded. We dropped a sure thing pick 6 that would have put is up 31-7 but forced them to punt at least. They stopped our terrible offense. We punted and they ran it back for a TD. They continued to stop our offense because we were paralyzed. We buried them inside their ten with a beautiful punt and they proceeded to go the length of the field with like four plays. We stop them in the red zone with a sack and they had like 4th and 15 and went for it. They hit a simple go route for a TD. They stop our offense again and then drive the length of the field one more time for the win.

It was beyond frustrating because we were definitely better than them.

Easy answer...Bobby Petrino recruited our secondary.

It's like Christmas morning for QB's playing us.

If it makes you feel any better, the defense isn't much better at stopping the run.

Our defense isn't very good.

Does this mean Arkansas always loses on the road or something?

I don't get it.

You have really simmered down since that 3-0 start.

Because Arkansas is a special kind of awful. Like Baylor circa 2003 awful.

That is the truth. Felt far worse that day than the thermometer indicated.

Yeah, I'm thinking only a serious host of injuries in the A&M game could keep LSU from being greater than a 20 point favorite.

And that's saying a lot given the history of that game.
