I don't think we're going to win the SEC this year, but do you really think anyone is scared of Les Miles? He gave birth to the infamous "team vote" to allow criminals back on the team, that's how much otherwordly power his grass-flavored words yield.
You don't have to be Bobby Petrino or Nick Saban levels of a-hole to be a good football coach. Look at Bill Snyder. Or Les Miles.

After reading this I remembered how convinced all the Arkansas fans were on here that they were still going to win the SEC with John L Smith coaching 
. All the talk of Tyler Wilson being at the helm, and most of the same coaches being in place would lead Arkansas to an SEC championship. It all came crashing down against ULM in War Memorial.

Great offensive line? Check.

Playmakers at WR? Check.

Defense good enough to keep team in every game? Check.

But lemme guess, you think a person who you've never seen outside of his bullshite media interviews is nice because of a game he plays right? I've seen him in normal situations in real life and he's not anything like he portrays himself to be, he's no different than our baseball coach Paul Mainieri in the sense that he completely misrepresents himself to the media.
do you really think anyone is scared of Les Miles
quote:Saban's let a ton of frickups back on Bama's team, does that mean his "words don't yield any power"? What a ridiculous reach at making Miles out to be soft. Last time I checked Miles has kicked some of our best players off the team in the last 6 years, he's not a pushover by any means. Keep comparing apples to oranges though. A coach with a 2-14 SEC record is definitely similar to one with 2 SEC championships and a national championship. Arkansas fans might just be the most delusional bunch out there

No surprises here. A 3000 word article full of sunshine pumping and intangible reasons as to why a bottom tier team is going to be good this year. Aside from Bert being a bitch compared to Petrino, the fact this his players aren't scared of him and don't feel pressure to perform, and a bunch of statements made about how great of a coach he is from some hack writer with absolutely no stats or solid reasoning to back it up, why exactly does Arkansas have a chance to win the SEC again?

No, I haven't. I've also never heard of legendary coldness like Petrino and Saban. Les Miles is, as you said, "a bitch" compared to those two (as are most coaches). Sorry about it.

Comparing coaches who coach the same sport in the same conference is apples to oranges, is it. But your analysis of Bert in the same context is apples to apples, of course. You know him IRL as much as I do Les Miles. AND I get the bonus of being called delusional after I stated we're not going to win the SEC or any other outlandish thing? If you're going to be this horribly asshurt, at least be justified in it.

I cant believe what CBB has turned this program into after just two short years. There are no words to describe what a clusterfreek he walked into after the John L year. How many we will win with a schedule like this is a fine line, but for the first time in a long time I feel we can win every game we play this year. I know we wont.

Arkansas has the advantage of running an offense that teams aren't built to stop anymore, but they aren't even very good at it yet. What made Arkansas good last year, 2-6 good was that they had a very good run defense and played very conservatively on offense. Their three best games were against teams that couldn't throw. Bama in the rain, Ole Miss in the rain, and LSU. They're way too one dimensional to actually compete for titles right now.

A shitty team that the Mighty Superpower LSU tigers struggle with every year. How does it make you feel that you got shutout by a shitty team with 2 wins in 16 tries?
