All we have heard since the end of the season is how Bert Finna eat this next season and how they should be the favorite for the SEC title.



Link?

We're excited for the progress shown but nobody has predicted SEC titles.
I know it's hard and you're kind of new to the game but you are going to have to distinguish between serious statements and troll responses on tRant.

If this were coming from any other fan in any other fan base It might matter but coming from Sam's girlfriend Rambutt it's just funny. they get lucky in the east a couple times and now think their opinion matters. Just assume the prison position before Sam's come's for his late night visit.

Obviously we are all predicting the Hogs to go 40-0 next season, winning the national championship and also going undefeated in the NFL as well. Plus a few CFL games whenever Bert gets the hankering for poutine.

1. None of us are predicting an SEC title... unless we are just plain making fun of you.

2. None of us are saying it will be BA that leads us to the promise land. He's improved quite a bit, especially in his decision making, but he's probably not going to singlehandedly carry the team to a Natty. That's OK. We aren't asking him to do that.

Allen is going to be the most experienced QB in the SEC next year. I predict that he has a very, very good year, especially with the new OC coming in and developing a more flexible offense built on our actual strengths instead of trying to force a fat round peg into a square hole.

Reason why Missouri can't take the next step:
Rivals Recruiting Ranking #31- 11th place in the SEC overall and 4th in SEC East. YOU NEED PLAYERS!!!

The OP is somewhat correct. He won't win games, but he also won't lose them either.

Personally, I'd rather have a player like Maty Mauk who will be so frustrating at times ( a la 34-0 georgia), but also create a bunch of something out of absolutely nothing (SC comeback, Tenn)

Brandon Allen is serviceable, but serviceable doesn't win championships

That is a good point and a good argument. We don't expect Allen to win us a championship next season. We'd love to have one! But we aren't counting on it.

Well this is new. You want the new OC to build on offense built on your strengths, and that will mean Brandon Allen passing more?

If BA leads us to the SEC championship game I will personally make sure a Dan Enos statue is erected on campus.

How many Championships has Mauk won lol
You are probably one of those that count representing the east in the SEC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME as a championship of your own.

If you want to go technical.. 2 SEC East Titles, A Cotton Bowl, and a Citrus Bowl.

I'm not trying to bash Arky or Bert...I'm simply stating the obvious. Brandon Allen has been a part of a large turnaround for the program. There is a lot to be said for that...laying the groundwork so others may claim the glory.

But don't get bent out of shape when I tell you that Arkansas won't win the SEC next year.

So the arky posters agree that Brandon Allen is the reason they won't take that next step?

A lot of bull shite gibberish while I was off just to agree with my OP

This is your universal response. You can deal but can't handle being dealt.

What's your thoughts on BA?


Exactly

How do you feel about Mizzou next year considering a healthy BA would have beat you?

They hang their hats on this every time when in fact, Brandon Allen wasn't the reason you lost.

The reason you lost was because you couldn't stop our rushing attack.

21-14.

Him throwing 20 TDs and 5INTs led you to a 2 win SEC season.

Funny thing about that. In reality we were just as close to winning the SEC as y'all.

No. Piggie, I am actually refreshed at your realistic expectations on here but you can't tell me your dumbass fan base isn't delusional.

Didn't you guys just run away with the most delusional on the rant just a few days ago in a thread?
