I doubt Bama runs more variations of than Arkansas since we have the guy who created it now.


I wasn't aware Arkansas hired Chirs Ault.

We got UGA the week before experimenting w/ the 3-4...It should give us a good idea of what to expect from Bama.


Because the last three years didn't?

Yep, we've never seen that. Running 25% of our running plays out of it won't have us prepared.

1) The creator of the Pistol was not here last year. He's new. I personally don't give a shite about the formation but the coach can put together rushing totals that are flat out sick. It can only help what was a mediocre run attack.

2) The Arkansas defense should be improved. Not elite, but #6-#9 overall type numbers. Sadly, that's pretty good considering the defensive numbers from the past two seasons.

3) If Arkansas beats Georgia the preceding week, you're looking at a Vegas line of 3 to 6 pts in favor of Bama. If Arkansas loses to Georgia, the line will more than likely push Bama to a 10+ pt favorite.

I don't know shite about this team til I see them perform in Athens. They lose in Athens and they'll probably lose to Bama. They win in Athens and the Bama game is a complete toss-up.

No this is his first year.


So he is installing a new offensive scheme and you expect they will run it better than a team who had game experience running it?

Maybe so, maybe not. Key is can Arky run them in the face of a good rush?

By how much will Bama beat Arky in 2010?


Bama can name the score. All they have to do is show up. Please let all the Bama players and coaches know the game against he Hogs will be a cakewalk again this year.

Obviously you're not familiar with McElwain. Just because you say something, doesn't make it true. Regardless, putting in a new system, compared to someone who's ran it for a year, doesn't give credence to Arkansas being able to run it effectively. Especially against a defense like Alabama's, not to mention how much they've seen it.

I guess you don't know that Arkansas ran it last year also.

I saw them run it. Twice against Alabama. But you do know McElwain came from the WAC, and has worked with Ault in the past, right?

The ECU pirate fans had a whole thread devoted to me before they banned me. Oh well it came true wonder if I can be 2 for 2?

You are taking this thread way to seriously. It is simply an attempt to talk about the game. No one is saying Arky will be worse.

I'm thinking that was a joke. Considering it would be nearly impossible to be much worse.

I don't have any issue with Arkansas. I actually like them, but your attitude towards Alabama fans lately is making it harder. Luckily I don't judge an entire fanbase on the actions of only one fan
