Ask any bookie and he'll tell you that homefield advantage is worth at least 24 points per game.

Come on now, its worth 12 points, since it's added twice. Don't be unreasonable.

Disagree. Although, I think the streak will be extended.

Do the math again. I had already divided by 2. They lost to those two teams by an average of 24.

No one respects the Hogs bc they shite the bed against every good team they play except LSU. It's why LSU fans dont consider Arky elite.

Whoever wins the LSU/Arky game will rep the SEC in Miami.

I can see Arkansas win every game next year outside of LSU.

Arkansas has Alabama early on. I could see Bama lose to Michigan, then lose in Fayetteville to Arkansas.

Best thing about Monday is that's when the talk of Arkansas in the national championship will start.

Anyone acting incredulous over someone picking Arkansas to win the NC in 2012 are just being intellectually dishonest.

I like how the article lists A&M and USCe as tricky road games but no mention of Auburn

So the whole running back coming off a serious injury, loss of the entire receiving corps, and lack of a championship caliber defense doesn't concern you?

I think people could work up some incredulity over such a prediction.

ETA: I'd just like to see that defense stop Collin Klein tonight. Make us proud, pork chops!

Dennis Johnson is pretty solid at RB and if Knile comes back we're even better. Plus some good frosh coming in next year at RB

WR's this year were all from Arkansas and BP's first recruiting class. I think people will be surprised by how easily the backups will fill those roles next year. We're pretty deep at WR and always will be with Petrino

D is the question obviously. Tonight we'll get to see how Haynes coaches

Sounds like Oregon fans before this season. The ole backups are better (or just as good) argument. It is a rare situation that you lose that much talent in that quantity and you get better. Hell maybe you do have the next Cris Carter and Randy Moss stockpiled on the bench.

All that being said, the QB is in place. Just need some gelling and maturity in a few other key spots.

We only lose two receivers that had any impact, Wright and Adams.

I've been impressed with Herndon as well. Kid is good

Oh yeah and Gragg will be a top TE next year as well

Yep a mere 1659 yards and 14 touchdowns lighter. A triviality really. Losing 45% of your production in the passing game (yards) is nothing. It's only a little shy of 60% of your throwing TDs. So no concern at all, gentlemen?

The offense will be scary good next year we still return 140 catches 1803 yds and 10 touchdowns from this years passing game so it will probably be similar to this year or better because tyler gets better. Get our all sec tailback back. Oline won't have any freshmen involved unless they are really good.


Defense? Hopefully Hayne's use simple terminology philosophy will benefit us greatly....but we will see. Shouldn't be worse than this year.

Welllllll, if some of our other receivers were starting in place of Wright or Adams, maybe they would do good?

I dunno, but I do remember losing our best receiver (Childs) and still outpassing every other team in the league by hundreds of yards per game.

Now go fetch the amount of yards we return at catching the ball next year.

I'd prefer the guys who are still in school catch the ball tonight in the bowl game for once.
