I hate when our fans start shite about the past without thinking about the future. Yeah, they haven't done much in past five years, but in Arky's defense, they're building a solid football program that will probably be a respectable 7-5 team which will frick up someone's season every year and win a game they shouldn't. I think that gives them about as much as to be expected out of Fayetteville, and something they should be proud of.

in the past 5 years


Pretty sure a BCS Bowl appearance (January 2011) was within the past 5 years. (note, never been done by Old Mis)

The following year - January 2012 - a Cotton Bowl win and a top-5 national ranking to finish the year.

In baseball, the Hogs went to Omaha in 2012. I'm assuming that is considered a "major" sport, right?

How 'bout a two game win streak in basketball against Kentucky? Y'know...winning at Rupp and such.

An Ole Piss supporter calling an Arkie supporter to task is akin to a Cardinal calling out the Pope for wearing goofy attire and a funny hat.

Glass house.

It would've been better if you would've said 4 years, that would've excluded the Sugar Bowl.

That's a BCS bowl if you didn't know, I know you haven't experienced one.

They beat LSU something OM couldn't do this year.

Also they made it to Omaha twice, OM only once.

I normally don't stick up for Arkansas.....BUT....they've had new coaches in football and basketball. Takes time for their systems and recruits to kick in.

Arkansas makes a great bacon. Screw their sports, just turn them all into ham and bacon.

And never will, since the BCS is no longer in existence. That means we've done something Ole Miss can NEVER do.
