If the answer to my question is 0, I'd be VERY surprised if Arkansas makes it past 10-2. I made already made a $100 bet with one of my typical Arky fan friend that they won't win the SEC west next year. Why always set the bar at your teams greatest recent season and for some fans, higher? Disappointment is the most likely outcome when you do this

11-1 or 10-2. More depth at RB, returning a two-year starter at QB with a solid receiving corps, and potentially the best defense in the conference. Not a very tough schedule. Offensive line is once again the biggest question mark... I think the lack of experience at OL and/or at special teams will cost us a game or two.

You had, arguably, the 4th best defense in the conference last year and the other 3 teams are returning most of their defensive starters......

Arkansas will go 12-1 with our only loss coming to LSU. It will be 1 vs 2 in the final game of the regular season with national title implications on the line. An argument will be made for another SEC vs. SEC championship game but due to poor ratings from last season they will decide against it. We'll go ahead of Georgia for the other BCS bowl spot in the SEC, despite Georgia going undefeated up until the SEC championship game.
Bama will finish the season having lost 3 games, and Saban will compare the season to kids starving in Africa.
LSU will win it all very easily next season, and Miles will leave after the season to coach in the NFL.

What is Arky's record against Bama since BP showed up?
As a Hog fan, this one hurt to look up:
2008
@AR 14 - 49
2009
7 - 35
2010
@AR 20 - 24
2011
14 - 38
So since BP showed up, we're 0-4. Total points 55 - 146. Ouch.

Same record vs LSU looks much better:
2008
W 31 - 30
2009
L 30 - 33
2010
W 31-23
2011
L 17 - 41
Overall since BP: 2-2. Point total: 109 - 127

16-0............ AGAIN.
But seriously, I think we could drop 2 games, but if everything goes well, we could run the table too. Have to wait and see.

LSU goes 11-1, and goes back to the SECCG vs. a 9-3 UGA...

OOC TBA: Win Whoever it ends up being.
Georgia: Loss. Though if I had to pick a potential upset, this would be it. Get Georgia early and at home and atmosphere should be great as its our SEC opener.
ASU: Win. Assuming Pinkel doesn't ice our kicker again. Improved MU team and at home this time.
South Carolina: Loss. I suspect our toughest game other than Alabama. At the wrong Columbia.
UCF: Win. Enough said.
Vanderbilt: Win. I understand they are improved, but this ones at home.
Alabama: Loss. Just too much star power to go against.
Kentucky: Win. Not to be taken lightly as its at their place, but predict a win.
Florida: Loss. While they were down last year and its difficult to determine what to expect from them next year, they are always loaded with talent and its at Florida.
Tennessee: Win. Storied history and great home field advantage for Tennessee. However, unless they are dramatically better than last year, I am hopeful for an Missouri win.
OOC TBA: Win.
Texas A&M: Win. Missouri has established they can win on the road against Texas A&M as I don't remember the last time they came to Columbia and I think we have beaten them 3 times in a row. Having said that, I expect Texas A&M to be improved, especially if they close out the games they should have last year. Plus they have the due factor in their favor. Tough game but Missouri win.
That puts Missouri at 8-4 overall and 4-4 in the SEC. Now I'm preparing myself for the onslaught.

Which is why I said they potentially could have the best because Bama, while still loaded with depth, loses a lot of experience. LSU and South Carolina lost more key players than we did. I think Florida does return everyone but I'm not sold on them being superior to UGA's unit at this point.

Saban has Petrinos Number. But, Arkansas has been real good at returning its juniors. We have a lot of experience/developed players coming back.
Luckily, we play Alabama @ home and early in the season. (slight edge, the new onslaught of Alabama talent will not have as much experience).
If we can pull out the win against alabama... I think it will propel our entire season.
that, and if we can play with any consistency @ away games.
12-0, if we beat alabama.
9-3 if we dont.

10 regular season wins...dont care where they come from.

Why do people think aTm's going to be so great next season, and definitely beat Auburn? That game should be considered a "toss-up" at best for aTm...
Was it those solid wins against Baylor, Kansas, SMU, Idaho, Texas Tech, and Iowa State? They lost against all of their hardest competition. Plus, they lost their QB, best WR, 3 starters in the secondary, and Cyrus Gray.

A&M should drop off a bit. New coach, but they lost a lot of skill.
Back to top
