Why is no one scared of Arkansas?

They will be a dangerous team. That QB is the closet to Cam you’re going to see and the defense added a few pieces.

Honestly the only reason is because they aren't that far removed from the Chad Morris era and so everyone just automatically discounts them. They could be really good this year.

Because it's Arkansas

Most people outside the state and a handfull of others view last year as a fluke and are stuck on the prior decade of Arkansas football.

I picked them to finish second in the west. I think they are better than aTm or Ole Miss. But am I to pick them to beat Bama? It's been 15 years

UGA isn't scared because we went up 21 to 0 against them last year in the first quarter and won 37-0 while throwing a grand total of 11 passes in the game.

Nobody should be “scared” but they should absolutely be respected if they are on your schedule.

They are at the level where they have to prove it over a couple of years to be pushed to the top. Not a knock on Arky just the reality if you aren't Bama, LSU, FL, and GA. Have to prove it which Arky likes anyway. Great thing is they have ample opportunity to prove themselves throughout the season.

A Cam offense doesn't really work the same in this era. They will win games, but they cant beat all the big dogs and have a tough schedule. 8-4 would be a good season for their situation, which means 6-6 and 7-5 are in the realm of possibility.

Lost your best receiver and got lucky a couple of times. Last season was a fluke

When/ If we show consistent winning, tFear will come... for now, we're still in "prove it" mode.
Nobody should be scared of us... but they should respect that we know where we were and have taken steps to close the gap. More importantly for Hog fans, we're no longer scared to line up against anyone in the league.
We're not Tenner/ A&M, so there are no cups or shirts... yet.

There’s a reality in which Arkansas goes 10-2 this year and plays in a NY6 bowl. There’s also a reality where they go 7-5 and play in the Texas Bowl.
In any case, Arkansas will not be an easy out for anyone this year, which frankly is shockingly good considering Pittman is only beginning year 3 after inheriting the worst mess in the SEC this side of Vandy. Pittman has done an amazing job.

Hendon Hooker will post better numbers this year. Watch. KJ was built for Heupel's system though. He is playing for the wrong team imo. Would be an epic qb battle.

Arky will be really good but they have a really tough schedule. Could be 8-4 or 9-3 just because their schedule is so tough.
10-2 team during a normal year.

Probably because it’s a given that if a QB leads your team in rushing he can’t go 2 years without a significant injury. And without Jefferson they are not very good.

Love the cane fan hanging around on an sec board feeling his oats bc he thinks they’re about to be relevant.
