I would be happy with kicking a field goal to win by 1 as time expires. Arkansas is no joke

To all jumping at those Arky points, given that they've played Bama close so many games lately..

Vegas and Offshore Bookies aren't in the business of giving away candy..

They've seen the Hog Defense. There is a reason they are dangling 12.5!

12.5 is a hell of a lot of points. Best QB and WR they will face all year. If Arky can give Wilson time this game has 21-20 all over it.

Our young O-Line has far from gelled in the first 3 games. This line is pretty much unbettable IMO because AR could play them close and still give up a garbage TD at the end to lose by 13, or Bama could skull frick us like the last time we were in T-Town. The only way we win this game is if we get a ST/Def TD AND Bama gives us good field position most of the day. Love the Hogs, hate this game at Bama so early.

I agree. I was thinking no more than 8.


Yep, that's what I was thinking. If we win somehouw that's a pretty big spread to overcome for sure.

Their entire Offense has been pretty pedestrian thus far.


Yep, 4th in Scoring O, 2nd in Total O, 2nd in Rushing O, and 4th in Passing O in the SEC is totally pedestrian. Add that to the #1 Total, Scoring and Passing D in the Conference. I do think the line is high but the criticism of Alabama's Offense is a little overblown.

I see this line settling closer to 10 or 10.5 by weeks end. Either way I don't feel real good about our chances at an upset and this furthers that thought

Nor do I. Hopefully it will be competitive but I think we are almost all in agreement it's going to go Bama's way.

Bama's weakness is what? Green and conservative QB play? But, is it anything Arkansas' D can exploit? Doubtful.

Troy abusing our O-line was not a comforting sight. I wouldn't bet this line either way personally, just don't see us winning unless some crazy shite goes our way.

TaKe Ark and the points that is rediculous. We are good but I don't think we are 12.5 better than Ark this game will be close.

If Knile Davis was playing the line might be 6. IMO he was worth that much to the Hogs.

It would do ArkBacon some good to play someone each year before they get to the Ala game.

Still 12.5 is alot.
