I notice that usually when yall talk about being able to upset a team this coming season, yall most of the time pick it to be Bama. Why do yall think it will be Bama over say.... Lsu. After all we drubbed yall by 30 points where yall have beaten them 2 years straight. I would think yall would have more confidence against them. I'll hang up and listen now.

From an LSU fan's perspective: 1) They've beaten us two years in a row and we're mad as hell and 2) we finally get to play them on Saturday (hopefully at night) in Baton Rouge.

IMO Arkansas best shot at an upset is OM.
Alabama is just too much physicaly for them right now.
I think we dominated them physicaly last year more than any other team we played, besides maybe Auburn.

It's very possible we could beat LSU but LSU will be mad and ready this time. Also, it wouldn't really be considered the upset of the year now would it?
Early in the season, beating a highly touted Alabama who drubbed us by 30 points the year before... now that would be a huge upset. One year under the belts, better QB, more experience... all those factors will make it a different game.
That's just my opinion, however.

For Arky it has to be Ole Piss. I can't wait for Nuttless to choke this year.

Maybe them beating LSU is not considered a upset .

I definitely think we can beat them... yet again, we didn't lose to them by much last year. One no call and we would have won that game. I don't think it would be "upset of the year" material.
Upset, yes... but not surprising.
Beating Alabama would be pretty surprising to most.

I think you may be giving the gumps a bit too much credit.

Ark will be the most improved team in the west in 09, IMO.

Nah... right now, I can only go by what happened last year.
ETA: And every game Arky plays in the SEC-W next year will be considered an upset if we win... with the exception of MSU and probably Auburn.

Nah, pretty gut wrenching really.
But yeah you're right. By the end of the season we'll be unranked, and they'll be top 10 at least.

This is what we thought with Auburn in '04, then '05, then'06, then '07.

Which of those years can yall say you were actually better than them, though?

I never said that,or think that but after beating ya'll the last two years I don't think it would be a huge upset in Arky eyes,IMO.

Previous years don't hold that much water. If we beat yall last year, I would have considered that an upset.
