It's '09 Ole Miss. And I hope they are the same because we're gonna need that SEC west victory. They're offense will be better. They're defense will be worse.


So you are counting the Arky game as a win?

I'm saying you won't. What makes you think that you will? Home team is usually a lock in the "egg" bowl. We both have new QB's, and we return experience in the backfield and have a mean DL, just have to replace a few DB's

Until we are picked #6 preseason and then proceed to be a non-factor in the SEC race, Ill say we are not the 09 Ole Miss.

We do have higher expectations. But i think it is more of "we expect them to beat more teams" rather than "we expect them to win the SEC" as it was with Ole Miss last year.

Yeah I don't see us getting near the love Ole Miss was getting pre-season last year.

Of course Tim Brando doesn't have our coach's cock in his mouf, either.

At least your schedule is easy. 9 wins is possible.

Something we can all agree on... Arkansas will be a tough out in 2010.

I think last year was your 1 chance.

Seriously, how many times are you going to play Florida and have them miss a FG, give up 4 turnovers, and 6 sacks in 1 game?

You forgot the refs

But seriously, when things happen like that aginast us (see Bama game) it was because Bama was better. But when good teams (AKA top 10)have these "bad games" it is only because they played bad, instead of the other team playing good.

Double Standard and Self-fulfilling prophecy IMO As long as people think Top 10 teams cant be outplayed by lesser opponenets, the longer those top 10 teams can stay in the Top 10

Come on. Just stop. Rainey fumbled because an arkansas players MISSED the tackle, but his flailing leg hit the ball out. Luck.

Aaron Hernandez fumbled because he ran into his own guy.

Arkansas didn't force a missed FG. UF just missed.

You can certainly make an argument that the arkansas DL played its butt off and beat Florida up, but you can also say Tim Tebow just sat there sometimes for 6 seconds holding on to the ball before he got sacked.

OH! Florida also dropped a wide open TD pass in that game. (riley cooper in the 1st quarter).

So you can say, oh, arkansas outplayed Florida thats why UF had such a bad game.

But I'll say Arkansas out played Florida AND Florida had a terrible game.

Your main offensive weapon is Jordan Jefferson. Your offense will more than likely be worse than last season.

Yea those idiots learned from their mistakes. People didnt expect Bama to win the NC last year and if you put them at two loses and OM doesnt lose to USC then the west race wouldve been extremely tight. Since everyone knows how dominant Bama is now, it would be stupid to pick anyone but them to win the west. Take them out of the picture Arky has a great shot. Thats why OM was ranked so high last year.

Plus the fact everyone knows defense wins championships and Arky has way to many question marks to be a legitimate top 10 team. Not that OM was, but if Snead played just as well as he did in '08 then OM finishes top 10 which is what people predicted.

Arkansas didnt take advantage of a great game by their defense. They hit a couple long bombs, and had a nice game running from Johnson. But other than that, they couldn't really move the ball.

Arkansas fans just need to face it. They caught UF on a good day, where UF played like crap, and Arkansas played lights out on defense, and they couldn't get the job done.

Arkansas should have won by 2 TD.

Perhaps, in 2010, they'll be even better, but I doubt that UF would have as bad a game the 2nd time around. Even against Alabama, a team that destoryed them, UF didn't have as many mistakes as they did against Arkansas.

Where as Ole Miss in 08, did get the job done.
