I’m typically pretty reserved on my expectations of Arkansas football, but I truly believe that Ole Miss is beatable. They have not looked world class so far this season. I think it definitely helps that we are getting them early in the season as they have a new QB who’s still learning.

That said, I saw an article saying OM opened as double digit favorites. I checked the Saracen app this morning and they have them at -8.5. Not sure what to think on that. Considering taking the Hogs as I think we can win the game outright, but I also never bet my team.

Either way, here’s some Kool Aid bc we bout to be undefeated when ND comes to town

If we beat OM I'll be ready to be hurt again. Until then we haven't proven anything.

This is like some sugar free Kool aid. Nobody's gonna drink it.

Well I've at least poured a glass. Headed over to Oxford Friday afternoon. I'll either chug it down about 10 o'clock Saturday night or be emptying it into Oxford's finest porcelain.

I’ll say that I’m at least going to watch the game with an ounce or two of hope.

Send me the money I'll spend it on hookers and blow vs wasting it gambling on the hogs...never bet on the hogs or against the hogs...

I'm SOOOOOO torn on what to think right now.... I REALLY want to believe again.... recent history has me so dadgum scorned that it's hard to.
But I really like this bunch!
I think we win Saturday!

Green will throw 3 picks, Sam will mismanage the clock and the defense looks like shite. With all that out of the way I'm still tempted to take the Hogs and the points.



Not enough Kool-Aid to win in Oxford

Hey I’ve made some money in the past betting both for and against the Hogs (I know, I know) because I feel I have a better grasp on our team than the average Joe that they are setting these lines for.

This Ole Miss game I don’t feel good enough about to make a bet. If I had to I’d take the points since I think it will be a very close game

I still don’t trust our defense

If we had a good secondary we would be scary AF. We have an opportunistic secondary, but quality wise I think we are average. With our system we are leaving some players out on islands I don't think they can handle.

We know our defense will wear down and with BMFP offense there are going to be stretches of time where you are back on the field in 3 plays.

I think our offense is fine as long as Green is fine. The running game, outside of Green, is a concern though.

Put me down as cautiously optimistic against Ole Miss.

Curious what y’all see that is so bad about our secondary.

Our 5* is our worst player

Taylen is a Stick we’re gonna beat some people this year. We’ll also lose an unforgivable game because Sam is bad game manager.

They won't be able to overcome the lack of pressure from the dline against better competition.

That isn't their fault, but they will catch the blame in the coming weeks.

Ole Miss OL is not that great. I figure we are gonna blitz Simmons. Our guys cover pretty good from what I’ve seen and they will tackle as well.

I guess we will see

I think 10-2 is a possibility, if Sam Pittman knew what he was doing and we win the toss up games. He doesn’t so 6-6.

we have close to the worst d line in the sec. Not trying to just shite on the hogs but it’s the truth. Cam ball, Quincy Rhodes, and the big Samoan I think are ballers but we just don’t have much after that. And 2 of those guys are never gonna be big pass rush guys. Which is where we really struggle. I PRAY I’m wrong.

I think this is a good take. Wish our running backs were better. This is the year we could’ve used prime Rocket Sanders.
