Even better than crickets. Wimpy and weak deflection.
Wimpy and weak is 4 SEC wins in three years.
Not engaging in wagers on an anonymous internet message board is solid and sound reasoning and logic.

...interrupting the pissing match to talk about football for a moment...
Not sure where some of the stats being thrown around came from, but Arky ranked 5th in the conference in rushing YPC and YPG last season. They were 4th in rushing TDs.
Those are all pretty solid numbers. Their numbers aren't as strong against ranked or conference opponents, but considering that they had the 4th hardest schedule in the nation, I'm not all that surprised.
I don't think they're an elite running team, but they're pretty damn good in that category, and probably will be better this season.
As much as we make of the beef on the oline supporting the running game, they were actually more impressive in protecting the QB. They allowed the fewest total sacks and fewest sacks/game in the conference.

I'd be much more concerned about the defense. That defense was very good last season and I expect them to take a few steps back this fall.
