I just don't get it. Honestly, consistently over the years they have been one of the SEC's biggest disappointment. Over hyped. Each year they say, "this is our year!" Each year they are, well, Arkansas. Need we say more? They have proven nothing -but I guess their glory is preseason love because midway through each year they are just average, just arkansas.

-2010 BCS team
-return most of the D that has improved each season since 2008.
-return 4 highly productive WR's
-return SEC's leading rusher
-Have the second best special teams in the league behind Georgia
-Have the motivation coming off of close losses to OSU, Auburn, and Bama from last season.
-It's our time

I like Petrino though, loved the way he left the Falcons.

Ok, I'll do it, but not expecting anything.

Petrino is a very good offensive coach. Got some great skill players on offense. If they're defense is half way good then I can see them winning the SEC. Looking forward to seeing them here this year.

dude you've grown used to us being coached by Motho (moron of the highest order) and his staff of the Murray St. Mafia.

Three years of repair work and developing talent has brought us back from the scorched earth policies of pick up games in the Hyper, texting before bowl games, and 'all you slaps in the Media' of the previous staff.

We are not that team anymore. Never aqain will our star RB have to call out the offensive playcalling on live TV. Never again will we have to play a receiver with a partially healed broken leg just so we can complete a pass. Never again we will play 4 QBs in one game.

Those days are over my Gump friend and you are right to fear what is coming. Hog Nation Kung fu is strong under sifu Petrino

Will have nothing to do with this year. Different players, different coach, etc. If you can't see that then no other explanation will suffice.

Not true. There are a lot of Arkansas fans who never said we'd win the SEC, certainly not under Hootie Dale.

True that there are some fans wihtin our fanbase that always proclaim a breakout season, but that is a simple minority, just like every other fanbase (except maybe Vandy) has.

Stupid thread.

You do understand that we had a coaching change just a few short years ago, correct?

How was Bama doing prior to Saban's arrival in Tuscaloosla?

Now ask an Old Myth fan how they are liking their head coach after the exact same amount of years with theirs as we have had with ours - two programs headed in totally different directions.

Maybe now that we have an actual football coach who expects to win and not just win occasionally are expectations have changed and outsiders perceptions of Arkansas has changed as well.

A stronger Arkansas does nothing but make an already great conference even better!
