Arkansas is in deep trouble right now.
We were in deep trouble after a 5 win season in year 1 of Petrino, too. Arkansas is fine.

You guys are hilarious. No one on this board knew who Sam, Ealy, Washington, or Lucas was last year. Now you guys want to claim that we can't reload because we lost a bunch of players you had never heard of? Give me a fricking break. Just because these guys don't have "stars" next to their names in the recruiting rankings doesn't mean they can't compete in the SEC. Mizzou has the 8th best winning percentage in ALL of the BCS over the last 5 years and has continuously competed for conference championships since 2007. The southern superiority complex is getting old very quickly.
Oh in 2010 White #6 WR, Hunt #43, Sasser #67 in the country. These guys are not 2 star freshmen, they're 3+ star 5th year seniors.
Solid post. But you have to remember Tiger, southern arrogance is all they have. If the sleeping giant, that is Texas A&M, finally marshalls all of their resources and Missouri keeps spitting in the eye of the star gazers and recruiting services by gleaning the backyards of Florida, Georgia and Texas and winning at a Top 10 clip - it'll pop their Aryan-like balloon of invincibility. So they're like a pack of jackals, all-in with predictions of failure.
To answer the OP... Texas A&M is the program that has the SEC bluebloods scared shitless. They're sitting on the motherlode of all motherlodes in terms of recruiting talent with the bottomless pockets only Texas oil can deliver. They can see it forming like war clouds on the horizon, yet are powerless to stop it.

USC short term, A&M long term.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree in Texas, apparently. All A&M points to is recruiting rankings. Just like big brother Texas. If recruiting stars won national championships, Texas would have won about 20 straight. JFF was the heart and soul of a team that ended middle of the pack. You aren't going to be better with him gone. You were on par with Rice without him.

Fancy meeting you here.

Mizzou isn't this year so why should we? Y'all lost more this past offseason than we will next year.
Uhh no, all we lost were some receivers. Good QB, most of the same O-line, same RB's except Josey and a decent TE. And the WR's starting this year have a lot of experience.

I see the delusion is strong in Arkansas... since when has a Sumlin offense been "average"? Here's the answer - it hasn't. The defense will continue to get more talented, and the offense isn't going to fall off very much. Hell, the next QB will have more talent to work with on offense than JFF ever did.
We aren't going anywhere. May be a little down this year, but we will be back very strong in 2015. Need some more depth on defense first - all the talent is very, very young and inexperienced this year.
