does that mean u agree with me that Ark peaked in 2011?
What, exactly, does that have to do with crime?
Arkansas is entirely capable of winning the SEC. Just look at the last 2 years. We were a lot closer than people give us credit for. If not for a freak year from Cam and a few stupid decisions by one player...If not for LSU/Bama both having elite teams in the same year.
But those are "ifs" and I'd rather not bring those up, except to say that we aren't that far away. If LSU or Bama stumble at all in 2012, Arkansas will be right there. Stranger things have happened.

So are you going to compare Arkansas to Louisiana in terms of states?......that is absolutely incredible. Its not like your state is a pillar of culture.
Never said it was. I was merely saying that it is ironic for somebody from Louisiana to critique another state.

I don't know how people keep forgetting this. I think Sunhog even said you guys had a championship defense.

And Oregon was the runner-up, being OH SO CLOSE to winning themselves. They say hello as well.

Was it the best defense in CFB that year? Absolutely not, but our offense was killer.

Right...it was as bad as ours. And that's not a knock on you guys, just saying you can win with a killer offense.

The fact that this program has gone the span of 20 seasons without a conference title should by all indications be a serious cause of concern.
The past 2 seasons, UArk's 2 loss regular season has largely been a product of a down league. (Tenn has sucked for a while now, both Miss. Schools are no match for the Hogs, they caught UGA on a down year 2 years ago, they have always had USC by the balls)
It is only a matter of time before the Hogs lack of overall lack of talent and depth catches up with them in some manner. e.g.--see their bowl history, their losing conference record to UK, etc.
It will be interesting to see how much longer Petrino's ego can muster not winning a conference crown.

This is... Damn. This is actually a pretty well thought out post.

How many of those years have we had Petrino and an Athletic Director that wouldn't meddle?

When you have an offense like that, you don't need championship defenses like LSU needs. You can overcome some deficiencies. Our problem last year was no Knile and a "green" OL. We also need some improvement in the defense and I think the new staff will provide that.

the numbers favor elite defenses winning the NC more than the elite offenses.
What elite offense has won the NC over the last 10 years?
UF, UT and Auburn? UF had a legit D and I'm pretty sure UT had a very good D in 05 didnt they? Who else?

Like I said, you need a decent/good defense...not necessarily elite.
And sure, it favors it...doesn't mean it can't be done.

Won the east this year? Is that a down year?
ETA: I'm an idiot. We didn't even play jawja Took this to mean two years in a row. Still, they are one of the "elite" teams of the east.

Contradictory argument is contradictory.
