Had Nutt let Malzahn do his thing I’m convinced they would have.

That season was nothing but frustrating.
Arky fans bitch about everything, even a shining bright spot in an otherwise dog shite SEC tenure

Nutt wanted Malzahn gone. He didn't want to hire him and it was forced on him by a wealthy BOT member.
Arkansas before the season began didn't have a QB. Casey Dick was recovering from a back injury. Highly rated recruit Mitch Mustain wanted to redshirt but was told no. So all that was left was Robert Johnson.
In the first game against USC at home, Arkansas was getting destroyed and Robert Johnson was awful.
So Mustain entered the game and scored the last touchdown to make it 51-14.
Mustain struggled but went 8-0 as the starter.
That changed when Casey Dick recovered and when Mustain threw a pick on the first possession against South Carolina, he was pulled out and Casey Dick took over. That was the last time Mustain started for Arkansas.
Nutt wanted Mustain gone as well. He was paranoid that Malzahn was going to take his job. Casey Dick was his QB and didn't want Malzahn to take any credit through Mustain.
The Nutt and Malzahn thing would have never worked. Both were POS and villains in Arkansas football lore.

If you only you knew what happened off the field during that season then you would understand.

The Nutt-Mustain drama with that reporter that came to light via FOIA was absolutely insane.
Nutt was self destructive as shite.

The FOIA revealed an affair which embarrassed the University of Arkansas. Petrino had an affair but wasn't smart about it and didn't hid unlike Nutt. Nutt didn't break any laws like Petrino that we know of but then again we are talking about a dishonest person here.
Also the harassing email to Mustain that was forwarded among friends and also a story of a code red was given to a group of defensive players that surrounded Mustain in a locker room.

I don’t care about the legality lol. Fact of the matter is Nutt handled the Springdale 5 situation about as well as a toddler drives on the interstate.
He was an idiot and a detriment to his own odds that year.

Nutt didn't care as long as he won his typical seven games a year and still kept his job. That is all that he cared about.

I remember the 06 Arkansas kicker had a strange pre kick ritual. Any of you woo pigs have a video of it?

Marcus Monk looks taller than 6'4
Thought he was 6'6 at least.

The worst part about that was the fact that we played Florida so close and Florida absolutely worked Ohio State that year.
I know we never win the big games but you have to wonder how we would’ve played OSU had we gotten there
Posted on 8/21/26 at 2:38 pm to CFB_Fanatic
I don't think you would have gotten #2 but Arkansas could have beaten OSU that year for sure.

If Arkansas had beaten both LSU and Florida then I don't see why.
McFadden would have won his heisman.

Florida jumped on Arkansas early with a 17-0 lead. Arkansas got the lead at 21-17, they forced Florida to punt and we all know what happened next.
If Arkansas by a miracle won the SEC and faced Ohio State then they would lose another close game.
Ohio State would have the same strategy when facing Arkansas. Load up the box and slow the running game down and force them into third and long situations.

We had the momentum in the 2nd half until little Reggie went full retard.
That was a solid Razorback squad sans passing game. Defense was stout, offense had DMAC, Felix, Monk, Hillis(didn't play in SECC game).
