The Razorbacks don't call Starkville home, so there's that.

Will Rogers dislocates his throwing shoulder.
Other than that, we're fricked

We’ve beat them twice in a row. No reason to think it stops now.

As long as their back up isn’t just as good and can take it 76 yards.

They have a porous run defense and we have healthy Dominique Johnson and rocket.

Their LB's struggle at spying if we put Hornsby in

They are turnover prone, and O line has pass protection questions

11 am game coming off a big statement win. We are in desperation mode and being slept on

Fortin comes in and awakens the pass game with Knox and Haselwood having big games. That opens up the running lanes and allows Rocket and co to run for 250 plus. Defense goes back to zone coverage like we did last year against them and pray for a few sacks and a fumble or two. Hey it could happen

I think we still lead the SEC in sacks, so maybe that'll help us out and we'll come out with a W this go around. Then again, the limb arm Ag QB threw up duck after duck and our secondary never bothered to look for the ball as each duck was completed to an Ag receiver.

I can't be totally positive, considering how terrible our secondary is. We can at least give our D crediks for their sacks.

Right. The number 7 passing offense against the number 124 passing defense with two walk-ons and a wide receiver in the secondary shouldn’t be much of a problem.

Then you have the fact that even if our veteran QB plays, he will be hurt in some way. He probably won’t play, which leaves us playing a backup. Considering our QB play recently, the quality of play may not go down much, but all those mistakes that make a QB learn have to be made, unless you have a generational talent at the position, which we know we don’t have.

Yep, we should win this one going away. Probably take all their cowbells with us for the ride home.

I just wish there was some way to know the reasons behind him not even getting a shot. I mean, if he is that bad, why keep him around as a QB all these years? I think the problem is that his skill set is just too similar to KJ’s, in that he’s probably not terribly accurate with the ball, so his instinct is to pull it down and run, and with Briles taking heat, it’s the last thing he wants.

The problem is, it gives the appearance that our staff have done the kid dirty, and wasted his talent on a team where he would never see the field.

If we crush them on the ground with the running attack, make them be patient through the air with a zone scheme, and don't make god-awful turnovers we have a shot.

We know how to beat a Mike Leach team. We have the blueprint. It is just a question of whether we can follow that blueprint or if we even try to follow it.

If we can hit them with a few long passes early, where they decide they can’t just load up on the run, we might have a shot. If we let them load up to stop the run the whole game, we’re in trouble.

No one gives a damn about this. This is a business. Kids will always be lining up to play in the SEC

In the day and age of transfer portal I do not care if we have a career backup QB pissed he didnt get to start because he "paid his dues". Next year we can go get some stud QB from another school if we don't have one ready to play in house.

We don’t know what he was told, but either way it is not a great look for us. Either we kept a player around for 3+ years that wasn’t good enough to play, or we kept a player around for 3+ years telling him he had a shot when he didn’t.
