It's funny that most people can't seem to see that Arkansas offense lives off playing weak OOC defenses. If Arkansas was half as good as the players are hyped up to they would have won atleast 4 conference games last year.

Herbstriet leaning towards Arkansas in west by AU24


Well, that does it then. If Herbie is picking the pigs then I'm ready to start believing the Auburn hype.

lot less impressive when you realize 8 of his TDs came against Nicholls St, UAB, and NIU. 

10 to 5 ratio in conference games looks just right for mediocre.


Then you realize , since Arkansas is a run 1st team the majority of the TDs will go the Running backs right?.....

Herbie is pretty sharp. Might not always agree with his opinion but it's something to look at if he's saying ARK wins West. Interesting.

I can buy the Arkansas hype. They play hard nosed football, are well coached and hungry for success. Gonna be tough for every team on the schedule.

Great offensive line? Check.
5th year senior QB with 2 seasons of starting experience under his belt? Check.
At least 2 future NFL running backs? Check.
One of the top TE's in the country? Check.
Playmakers at WR? Check.
Schedule sets up well? Check (it's tough, but as far as how it's setup it's perfect).
Defense good enough to keep team in every game? Check.
Team is hungry? Bert.

Reminds me of 2007 Auburn. Brandon Cox at QB, Ben Tate at RB, Solid DL and OL..... worked out okay for us.

Everyone will be taking Arky seriously this year due to the hype and shite talking.Every team in the West has potential it's just a matter of motivation.

only thing on the list we don't have is the TE.. and we may have that too.. so you're saying Mizzou can win the West? Thanks!

who gives a shite, its his opinion


you do realize that for reporters and talk show people, it gets more attention when you go against the grain

you think they dont know how stupid it would be to pick Bama every year?

Record was a little deceiving when you realize how some of those games were lost.

A&M - Left tackle has two penalties called on him in the game. One results in a 50 yd TD pass being called back and the other results in a 50 yd run to the one being called back late in 3rd to seal the game. Otherwise we basically blow a&m out.

Bama - Reserve RB drops the ball as he is going in untouched for a TD and it bounces out of the back of end zone. We miss short FG and extra point to lose by one.

Missouri - We score TDs on our first two possessions or 2 of first 3, can't remember, on the road, then BA gets injured. This loss was on CBB for not replacing him as he was totally ineffective the remainder of the game.

Miss St - Very close game on the road, can't remember much about it since I can't get any replays on it, just that Dak pulled them through with some clutch runs late. Our offense fizzled.

CBB is 0-7 in the SEC in games decided by less than 7 points. This year with a 5th year QB we find out if that was a bit of a fluke or if that is a weakness of our coach.

Miss state game was lost on a game ending interception. They were number one.





We will be good this year. Not sure we will win the west but we will be good

I believe arkie could be a contender. I also think depth is a bit of an issue and they will need to avoid injuries in some key areas. But outside of Alabama this is true of most teams.

Arky fans drink jail hooch and delusion in equal measure, and get drunk on both.
