Google ESPN FPI then click on one of the teams. For S&P, search "Football Study Hall Stat Analysis". And for Massey just search Massey and click the team.

Last week FPI had Arkansas losing out. Pretty sure that is what he is referring to. Arkansas losing to Ole Miss was nearly 80%.

someone posted (summer of george or some random lsu fan) the predictions (or %) and we were underdogs in every game for the rest of the season. maybe it was just 2 weeks ago but i thought it was longer than that. fpi is a joke was really my point.

They are good once you get to this point in the season. Obviously they don't take into account injuries or turnovers in a game, but they definitely give a good baseline.

Yep. Arkansas, like I posted in another thread, has played 4 really, really good offenses in their power 5 games. Now, they've gotten beat up pretty good by them, but that could just be proof that they are a slightly below average defense, not necessarily a historically bad one.

Going 2-2 in those games is pretty strong, IMO

Arkansas will not see any offenses going forward that have been near what the first half of the schedule was. The defense really started to settle down last week in the second half against Ole Miss.

they do not, but they don't have the human bias, something I find useful for the other conferences I don't watch as much

The pass defense is not bad at all imo. The problem is the run defense is so bad atm that the secondary is having to help on the run. Our LBs do get abused from time to time in pass coverage though.
