Are. You. fricking. Kidding. Me.


“I like the format like it is,” Pittman said. “We're playing eight SEC games. It gives us the opportunity to go to Memphis, and it gives us the opportunity to have Notre Dame in. I know there's a lot about finances. There's a lot about putting a product out there where the games are relevant, which I think we do each and every year.

He means the same thing that people mean when they say that Arkansas "gets the opportunity to play in Little Rock". The whole "other fans get to watch in person than just those in Fayetteville" argument.


However, there should be a minimum of 7 games in Fayetteville every year imo.

What’s the issue? You think we’ll continue scheduling non-directional schools if we add another conference game?

you Bert.... It is a OOC game at Memphis... Not the liberty bowl this time. It's all good and gives folks a chance to see a game that otherwise would not possibly be able to go.

Aids in fan retention.. fwiw

Even if he was referring to the Liberty Bowl, that is the bar Hunter sets up for him to jump over each year, can't be mad at a man for meeting the expectations set for him the majority of the time at his job.

It almost reads to worst to say it allows us to play a road ooc game against a mid major in a dump stadium located in a crime ridden ghetto.

Instead of overcoming adversity on the field, they get to overcome adversity in the parking lot and on the way to the field. The early bird gets the worm.

The Wardump and the Midsouth ghetto

What an unserious program
