I don't see us winning it all or anything but 9 or 10 wins isn't out of the question if we get enough breaks

I think Arkansas made some advances but they won't be competing for the SEC in 2015.

They won't be an easy win but they will get 4 league wins.

I think either AU or Bama wins the west,and the Hogs finish tied for second. They desperately need a WR, but are otherwise loaded, and play nasty (in a good way).

I don't know, maybe because some folks can finally see what Bert is building? Maybe because they can not see any glaring weaknesses any more? (We could use better depth in a couple of spots though.)

I'm not claiming we are going to win the West this year (but not ruling out the possibility either), but from every angle I can look at the team, the coaching, the program - I only see things that have improved steadily, including this spring.

No hype, just an honest observation.

8-10 wins probably

4 returning Oline
Deepest Arkansas has been on DLine in my lifetime
2 NFL RBs
Elite TE play
Return 8 starters from a top 10 defense
5th year Sr QB who went 20/5 lst year
Arkansas was oh so close to being a 10 win team in 2014

Whichever bowl game Arkansas makes it to, they will win.

When will Gus win a bowl game for the first time in his career?

I think they only reference someone having a losing historical bowl record when it suits their narrative.

Nation's best defense.
5th year senior quarterback.
Two NFL running backs.
Biggest O-line in football.

Those are some of the reasons. Plus Bielema is an elite coach.

That's the saddest shite I've ever read. Seriously. I really wish Auburn had beaten the worst Texas team in 20 years than losing in the last 13 seconds of the NC game.

Take your moral bowl victories and place them on a mantle next to all of Gus's actual bowl victories.

If there is room.

I'll take his 1 sec championship in his 2 years over your shitty bowl victory. How about that? But I guess winning the SEC is a moral victory too. Never mind, an Arkansas fan sure as shite wouldn't know.

How many "shitty bowl victories" does Gus have?

Well, none. If that's all you desire in a head coach then I think you definitely have the right guy

I can honestly ask why all the Auburn hype? Their starting QB couldn't even put lowly Arkansas away, horrible defense, lost their bowl game so no momentum going into the season, Gus has regressed each season, etc. etc.
