Have you ever hit your thumb with a hammer? Imagine that, only as a football team.

Lol..I know it’s a stupid cliche, (y’all be gentle) but Ark vs the Aggies almost always comes down to a mistake from one team or the other, at a critical time late in the game. The history, since A&M joining the SEC, has been hard fought games coming down to the very end or in overtime. This year the teams have a lot of talent, but big problems in certain area. With A&M, our biggest problem, is Jimbo’s offense. The offense is not getting the ball to our playmakers with a chance, and is keeping the defense on the field too long. Our defense is anyone’s guess...good DB’s, decent LB play. But I don’t like that three man front. Arkansas is a whole lot similar to A&M. Talented but with some major problem areas. Including coaching. Should be a heck of a game.

game 2: beat SCAR who might be the worst in the SEC, and even had a few moments of panic during that game with rattler throwing up deep balls


We arent the worst in the SEC. we played two top 10 teams. Plenty of teams will get smashed by UGA like we did.

*Cough Oregon cough *

but hey, good game against FSU....



He said "might be" the worst SEC team. The games against Vandy and Missouri will determine the truth.

Obviously the tRant experts think Arkansas sucks.

Its offense is only averaging 500 yds per game (3rd best in the SEC and 19th best in the country)

Only averages 272 passing yards per game and 243 yds rushing. Sanders must be running a lot of routes and also running the ball a lot.

We should probably just go full A&M and forfeit out and get ready for shooty hoops season.

We have another RB just as good, so, we arent "all Rocket".

We also lead the country in sacks. Feast and Famine.

Oh, and KJ mf Jefferson exists, Baw.

As an LSU fan, don't you have plenty to worry about, without even thinking about Arkansas?


LSU doesn't even play the Hogs for like 7 more weeks and this guy's already hogsessed. tFear is strong with this one.

KJ isn't going to beat a great team with his arm but he is still a very good college QB. Line is solid as well, although they got pushed around too much last week for who they were playing.



Well he came pretty close to beating bama @ bamn with his arm last year.

This guy is right, if only the Aggies had the QB who has the worst SEC QBR, lost to App State, and got benched two full games into the season then Arkansas would have totally gotten destroyed./s

Seriously, why is Aggie still using this argument?

Offense gets #2 RB back in DJ


When? Pittman said he was cleared by the medical staff before the Cincinnati game. He's also said it was up to DJ so I'm beginning to wonder if he's in the dog house or something.

It was. Especially the 4th quarter. Was an even better game when we held the high flying offense of Leach to nothing and beat that arse.

PS. In its last 9 quarters, LSU has out scored its opponents 109-40. We will be alright.

But it won’t be this game. Aggies QBs are trash and so are their WRs.

All we have is Rocket…


KJ is 5th in yards, and 2nd in QBR/completion percentage last I checked.

Our defense is leading the country in sacks.

But yes, all we have is Rocket.

Out of 131 FBS football teams, Arkansas has the 131st worst pass defense.

Combined with all 123 FCS teams, Arkansas is 251 out of 254.

Combined with all D2 teams, Arkansas is 412 out of 416.

Add all D3 teams, Arkansas is 649 out of 656.

They do get 2 players back from injury I believe though?

And yes, I was sent this info from a friend.

And with all those wins in the worst decade in the history of Arkansas football, aggy still managed to average only 8 wins per year. Best be thankful Arkansas FB was in the shi**er or your record since joining the SEC would really be sad(der).

And yet we are 3-0 and in the top 10. This ain't baseball man. You can't just look at analytics. We have a pulse, make plays when we have to, and are led by a fighter. This team will fight you to the bitter end and expect to beat you.
Won't find that in a stat.
.......not to mention you totally left out EVERY offensive stat which are polar opposite of our defensive stats.

Comparing stats across divisions is stupid. Our secondary is obviously better than D3 secondaries, but we're playing mostly similar talent to ourselves for the most part just like they're playing similar talent to themselves. Overall stats are probably going to look pretty similar at all levels of football, so if we're last in FBS we're going to be last/near last when you compare to every division.

And we're getting Slusher back, but Catalon is out for the season
