Serious question. Since they can't beat a Big 10 team can they really be considered SEC quality?

They are the SEC's version of Texas A&M ...

"they outperformed their abilities and ended up in a bowl against an opponent that clearly plays the game of football better as a team than they do."

Jacksonvilles St. and Vandy beat Miss. this year.


Does that make them better than you?

A&M beat UT, Oklahoma, and Nebraska as well.

Point?

Why are you using Big 10 wins as a benchmark for success?

wow, you know what we were nervous about a game we have not played in for 30 years. I think the experience for our team was good but we should have won the game and if Mallett had not thrown that interception then we win. However, we were nervous and I knew that would happen which is why I wished we had gone to the Capital 1 bowl this year. I think we will be good next season though and when we get to the big stage again.

We win. So, does that make you happy?

i know it's popular on this board to make fun of Arkansas... but they're a real SEC team... they're not fricking vandy... they're not fricking kentucky.. they're real football.

they were in the sugar bowl against ohio state. that's respectable.

don't pretend to be asking a "real" question when you're not... especially if you don't wanna get called out for being a dumbass.

and we for really got our asses kicked. For Real.

Unlike Miss State and LSU -- teams which we beat in the regular season.

I've always respected Arky football. The one fan I know is a great guy.

The calling the pigs thing is a bit weird though...

we are competitive. In Arkansas football or in any of our sports now a day. You prepare for the worst but hope for the best. When you have to call certain game winning plays against LSU, miracles? then you know you are not the most talented team around.

I'd say we're pretty much a real SEC team seein' as how we get the same share of the money as the rest of the SEC teams.
