Just because he beat OM doesn't change the fact that he went 5-7 his first year

I think Auburn's problems were more deep-seated than Arkansas'. We were actually capable of being decent team last year, had Petrino not gotten his arse fired.

Arkansas also lost 95% of their passing offense, 85% of their rushing offense, and 63% of their receiving offense. No concern though?


Sure there is concern. I'm not predicting us to win the SEC. I'm predicting we beat Auburn. It's not that big of an accomplishment.

Not a troll. I think A&M is overrated and could likely lose to Ole Miss as well.

Not that I think Arkansas is the better team. But I see A&M is an 8-4, 9-3 type team. The Arkansas game will be your first away from Kyle Field. And I think we have one big upset in us this year.

I'll say 5-7. They win the first 3 games and win 2 out of MSU, Auburn, Rutgers, and Ole Miss

Come on D! You know he was working with Croomed crumbs and getting to 5-7 was an accomplishment. We can't help OM sucked donkey balls 3 years running.

Let me get this straight:

You think it's more likely that you'll beat 2 of A&M, Ole Miss, and Mississippi State than it is that you'll go 4-0 nonconference and beat Auburn and Mississippi State?

You do know that Kevin Sumlin hasn't lost a road game since 2010, right?

6-6 most likely
4-0 OOC
Beat Auburn
Beat State

We are normally good against SCar at home as well, so may e 7-5, but 6-6 more likely. Music City Bowl bound

Overrated because...?

I could see OM sneaking one on us, but they have talent. Arky doesn't.

I can't imagine a scenario where Arkansas out scores JFF.

Should be a 4+ TDs W for the Ags.

This is just absurd. Outside of last season, Arkansas and OM's recruiting ranking have been virtually identical. There is still a lot of talent on Arkansas' roster. It was just extremely poorly coached last year. Don't be blinded by one season in probably one of the most strange coaching situations in college football in a long time.

It's not absurd at all.

You have nothing offensively. You lost your QB, best WR, best RB.

You guys do have some decent players on the D, though. Just not the caliber needed to stop JFF (I.e LSU).

What's more, your OL isn't good at all. That's a significant hindrance to Bret's ground and pound you offense.

Sure, some guys may emerge. But on paper OM talent exceeds Arky's.

Bielema may steal either aTm or SCAR

8-4 is a possibility

This right here is the biggest problem I see when people talk about the Hogs. There is talent on this team and more than most realize, and talent at positions that 2Beez can work with. But IMHO we will win 7 games because of the improvement of our defense. Take it with a grain of salt but that's how I see it.
