I like Arkansas and want them to be strong each November for the Mizzou game. But let’s not pretend like this was a couple bad apples talking shite on a message board. There has been a weird, unwarranted arrogance emanating from Fayetteville toward Mizzou ever since we joined the conference. You can’t be surprised by the fact that a lot of Mizzou fans are excited to see Arkansas football struggling. It’s also a budding rivalry, whether y’all want to admit it or not.

Personally it didn’t have anything to do with mizzou but what their addition took away from us. Our yearly game against USC who joined at the same time as us and our thanksgiving game against lsu which I always looked forward to and were some exciting and sometimes meaningful games.

aggie wound up with both of them. We got the shaft, as usual, with that expansion and so did USC by having to travel further. The expansion teams should have played one another on thanksgiving.

Now that’s just a meaningless game every year because both our teams not worth watching and will never be a rivalry.

At least we get texas week back starting next year, they have always been OUR only rival whether they consider it a rivalry or not.

mizzou fans can be offended but no one cares about their program.
