I’m not sure how you do now. Geez don’t you remember all those losing seasons in football? And that baseball falling between 3 Arkansas educated players that ended your chance for a trophy? And remember when you tried to hire Kiffin and he was ready to sign until the moment Ole Miss called him? You Arkansas guys are resilient. I give you that.

Also, take out their games against A&m and they're 9-5.



Now you're counting FCS games like Long Island, etc. They are 1-3 in the SEC outside their game with TAMU. TAMU played all these games at home. I think it'd be foolish to say TAMU is an SEC favorite. They don't pass the eye test. Just playing some lower grade SEC teams at home so far.

If they can win at LSU, I'd say at that point, yes they are legit. But like I said in another post, home is worth 10-14 pt swing in the SEC, and the manner they are winning, makes me think 9-3.

They do have an absolute cupcake schedule, so they have that going for them.

Plus, have we not experienced this for over a decade. A&M gets their hopes up because for some reason they play all their SEC games at home for the first 4, then finish 4 on the road...

How has this not been posted yet?

have to play both of their daddy’s on the road

It hits different since they are gay dads though. Like a two-parent household, except no woman lives there

That’s right. Y’all are both gay af.

Let’s see them win a game in November first. Plus we’ll see how they move without Moss

And these were all against the bottom half of the league who are a combined 1-4 in conference excluding their losses to Aggy. (UF offer UTx is the only win). Aggy has a good team, and the defense is legitimately strong, but they have not been tested much. I’d agree with the OP idea that they are a favorite because their remaining schedule is also relatively easy, but going multiple weeks on the road is going to catch up to them once or twice even against mediocre teams.

We suck, but are not the worst or even close. Kentucky, Auburn, and Arky say hi.

Here’s my take. A&M is dominating mediocre teams (including Auburn; the score was a lot closer than the game), and we beat a somewhat decent ND team on the road. We are improving each week. IMO, that’s all you could ask at this point. Now, we’ll find exactly how good we are. Until the end of the road stretch, I’m just going to sit back and try to keep Hope under wraps while I enjoy the ride.

A&M has a dangerous game in Arkansas next week. Hillbillies want that win

I will not be remotely surprised if we lose.

The good news is that we have by far the best defense they’ve faced. The bad news is that they have the best offense we’ve faced.

Should be very interesting.

last night, you called me an idiot for saying Arkansas might be an interesting game..

you said.. “we’ve beat them 11 out of the last 12..”

You did luck out a little bit though, at least you aren’t playing a night game there.. either way, I agree, I am an idiot though, just not for the reason you said

You may hate ND but they definitely are not arse this year. Both A&M and Miami are T10 teams right now

yeah and they lost both of those, and they have won 4 games against unranked teams. So they have no good wins and losses to the only good teams they played

USCW will probably be ranked this week. Pitt might too by the time they play. They’re sneaky decent
