Right now, he have a a better team than 2 of those "big 6" schools, and also have a better future than them.

Also, I hate the term big 6.

There's not a single Arkansas fan on this planet that thinks we are on USC, UF, etc's level.

Quit being stupid.

By "traditional power" i think of a consistent top 5 school. Just because you are ranked does not make you a power.


You missed my point.

I was saying that Arkansas fans think of their program as being a top 25 program.

Let me ask y'all something. We're notorious around this site for being so delusional... but in all fairness, in retrospect.. have we really been delusional?

We believed that with Saban's arrival that we'd be a championship caliber team. Are we not?

We never expected last year to happen as great as it did. Did it not?

We never expected to have back to back #1 recruiting classes. It happened.

What charges do you opposing fans have that our "delusions" are clearly unwarranted?¿

Likewise, is there REALLY not a more delusional fanbase here? Are we really sure that it's not because Bama happens to be everyone that posts on this website's #1 enemy? Just some food for thought. I have never really understood why we've been called the most delusional. Everything hope we've had for our team seems to be coming true thus far.


You also believed that you would defeat florida in the SEC championship. LINK

You also proclaimed when Saban got hired that he wouldn't lose to teams you should beat (cough) Utah, ULM (Cough)

Delusional:

"We may not give up a TD until Oct. That's how good this defense is."

"Hanks gives us the best WR tandem in the nation"

"Arenas is the best PR of all time"

etc. etc. etc.

I think there was one day after the VT game that every thread started with "we have the best....".

I can understand being excited about your team. But to ramble off about this crap and really believe it to be true is delusional.

You mean they are not? How shocking! I guess that is why I have wished nothing but pestilence, pain and suffering on the entire fanbase....oh wait that is reserved for Ole Miss now...Sorry about that..

The delusional Bama fans seem to be the ones that never went to school there like that Shane guy from Finebaum. Those are the ones that say "we will go undefeated" every single year.

The only Arky fans I ever come in contact with are the ones on this board.

I'm guilty. The D gave up 5 TD in three games so we must not be very good.

I'm not saying Bama doesn't have a good D. Nor is there anything wrong with saying that you do. But to say you won't give up a TD in your 1st 4 games is delusional.

A lot of times we Bama fans just make outrageous predictions to get you all riled up and laugh at your replies.

In reality, most Bama fans' predictions haven't been nearly as delusional as the predictions of those of you who, just three short years ago, were saying that Bama would never be able to hire a good coach, would never be a national power again, would never win the SEC, that LSU/Auburn would beat us every year from now on, and that Bear Bryant was dead. Now, most of those statements have been proven wrong, and it looks likely that the the others were wrong too.

In all fairness, this was very close to being true. Every coach in the country just about turned you guys down, and it was a direct result of the crazy assed fans in Alabama. You guys are absolutely a great program, but a lot of coaches were afraid of the monster down there.

You'd have to admit that coaching search was a disaster, and getting Saban was a Hail Mary on 4 and long.

Really, every coach? I remember RichRod backing out. Who else? I'm curious.

Actually, getting saban was persistence on the part of Mal Moore, not a hail mary.

have you read the rant lately or listened to sports radio in BR. LSu fans expect the same thing. LSu fans expect to win the NC every year and they should they have been a top 5 program for 7or 8 yrs now.

Fixed. Just sayin.

I understand that those 2 TD's count just as much as the ones that the D gives up. Just sayin the D didn't give up 5.

All of these post were by I believe the same poster or at no more than 2 posters. He was stirring the pot. You take some of this stuff too seriously. Yall like to run with stereotype as soon as 1 Bama fan says or post something that is delusional, when most are just obliging the stereotype s of other fans.

Everyone who thinks Bear Bryant is still alive, raise your hand.

If your hand is up, you're delusional.
