Personally I think where Arkansas fans are wearing the homer glasses is their defense.
I think the excitement about the defense is justified. They ranked 36th nationally last year and return almost everyone.

Alabama was ranked 6th and return 10 players as well.

Correct, and they will be a top 5 national defense. I never said Arkansas' defense would be better than anyone else's, just that it would be good.

Maybe it's just me, but 36th nationally isn't very good.

Uhhhh, when you finished in the 80's the year before I think 36th is an acceptable improvement. No?

When you rank in the top 10 in offense, 36th overall in defense is very good.

You do understand that we had a coaching change just a few short years ago, correct?
How was Bama doing prior to Saban's arrival in Tuscaloosla?
Now ask an Old Myth fan how they are liking their head coach after the exact same amount of years with theirs as we have had with ours - two programs headed in totally different directions.
Maybe now that we have an actual football coach who expects to win and not just win occasionally are expectations have changed and outsiders perceptions of Arkansas has changed as well.
A stronger Arkansas does nothing but make an already great conference even better!

not really, it makes already antsy LSU fans pee in their pants and Alabama fans not 100 percent certain they are going to win.

I actually think Arkansas has a shot at winning the SEC this year. I wish that didn't sting so much to type.

Defense was still solid before Saban even arrived. He just made it even better. Offense was the problem. Shula couldn't recruit skill players and the strength program was awful in developing linemen.

It's why this board is pure entertainment it's a bunch of know it all college kids. It's totally fun to play with their thin skin.

Sweet!
Gotta love the "There's no answer for Davis" from the LSU game when he was skullfricking PP7 and co.
Football season can't get here soon enough.

I found that as a personal favorite as well. Lets not forget about Dennis Johnson returning kicks again this year.
So many weapons and mostly all Arkansas boys as well.
