Arky's got a mad on about a hard schedule -- not that bad. We would be the Nichols State Colonels -- but not sure what you will do

We went 5-6 in 2009 with the #1 SoS in the nation. We looked at it as a moral victory considering we got fricked out of an LSU win by the refs saying Dixon didn't get in the end zone that he was laying on with the ball clearly on the end zone line. You will find positives. Who knows. You played several teams close last year including us and LSU. Maybe that ball bounces your way this year. If you ended at 6-6 with that schedule you should be happy as hell.

We had an int returned for a td against y'all that year that was very suspect.

not suspect at all. That one will forever be on every MSU pregame highlight reel. My great grandchildren will be watching that int for TD.

Well Georgia is pretty well across the board considered to be an underperforming program. Even with all of the elite and top end talent that leaves the state UGA still signs Top 10 classes annually and doesn't do much of anything with them.

UGA has arguably the most fertile recruiting area of the SEC in its backyard but it's been twice as long since Arkansas was in a BCS bowl that Georgia has gone to a BCS Bowl.

We have none of the advantages that UGA does, but we'd have won just as many SEC East titles as Georgia has since we joined the conference.

The more pertinent question is how will Bert's team do against Arkansas' schedule? 3-9 seems about right.

Is it just me, or did everybody like Arky more when Petrino, Ford, Crowe, Broyles, etc coached them?

Against Missouri's schedule:

South Dakota St. - W
@ Toledo - W
UCF - W
Indiana - W
@ South Carolina - L or tossup
Georgia - W
@ Florida - tossup
Vanderbilt - W
Kentucky - W
@ Texas A&M - tossup
@ Tennessee - W
Missouri - L


I'm comfortable in saying that Arkansas could likely go 9-3 if we had Missouri's schedule this season. There's lots of winnable games for Mizzou. They should be fighting to get to Atlanta.

.

We were 4 yards away from the national championship a couple of years ago. I think that was a better achievement than losing to Ohio State in the runners up bowl.

UCF is a loss for you
UGA is a loss for you, and as a bonus, we get to see it happen!
UF is a loss

Toledo and Tenn are toss-ups. Hell, KY would be a toss up for Arky this year.

I can't see 9 wins for Arky no matter whose schedule they swap out with.

Do turnarounds happen?

Sure, but y'all do not have the talent pool AU had last year.

If we see a big "Auburn of '13" type turnaround this year, it will be the Florida Gators

Auburn has that exact same schedule, except ours is harder. We play usc instead of mizzou.

We would win the SEC with your schedule just like we will win the SEC with ours.
