Well, obviously you needed to go all Rohan to Reed every game.

UA = Alabama. U of A refers to the University of Arkansas. We didn't use him more because he wasn't on the team. Next question.

that's funny, and I agree to a certain extent. I guess Mcelroy is the partial answer to that.

Watching Hard Knocks, Julio looks like a fricking machine. That dude has unreal athleticism. Me and my fantasy team really hope he can stay healthy this year.

We didnt utilize Julio like UGA did AJ Green. We threw him the ball, and used him as a decoy alot to move safetys. I always said when you have a freak like that, do what uga did, force him the ball. But, then again Bama is worried about winning, not receiving yards, so it worked out well. Julio is a beast, iv never seen anyone like him.

I will never forget being in Tiger Stadium in 2008, and watching LSU's whole defense try and tackle him. I thought to myself "hmm a true freshman isn't supposed to be able to do that."

That same game, I had the same thought about PP7 after he casually jumped up and ripped an INT out of the air on the sideline.

Go back to your pig farm. The University of Alabama was established in 1831, 40 years before Arkansas. We first.

Google "u of a"

You'll find links to Arizona and Arkansas. No Alabama to be found on the first page.

It wasn't even a slight to Alabama. I just see UofA referring to Arkansas more often, while UA refers to Alabama.

I had a Bama hat that read U of A. It was one of those "bar" hats.

...you don't get the same results searching Google in Arkansas as you do in Alabama.

I know the answer.

Because we never maximize the talent of our best offensive players.

yeah, that touchdown against the Titans(?) was sick. Catches the ball over the middle, breaks the tackle of his primary defender, spins out of another tackle, then races 3 guys down the sideline for the TD, and made it look easy. that was badass.
