especially an Arkansas team we had dead to rights last season.

"remember that one time we played really well in the first half and were beating that one team really badly"?

Why no, no I don't.

I do, however, remember your team falling apart, blowing big leads and losing on several occassions last year. It's weird that the record books don't include the score at halftime. Bragging about how you were ahead of Arkansas before absolutely sh!tt!ng the bed would be like an Alabama fan bragging about the arse whipping they put on Auburn in the first half of the Iron Bowl in 2010. Just don't do it man, it's just sad.

The sad truth, however, is that last year you guys were a VERY distant third in the SEC West and things won't be any different this year except that the gap between you and the schools below you will decrease

LSU v. Ar-Kansas - 41-17

Bama v. Ar-Kansas - 38-14

That is what I call a VERY distant third.

I have a law degree. I would still be grossly overpaid if McDonalds paid me $100k to run its drive-thru window. He got her a cushy job working with him on a daily basis and fought for an exorbitantly hight salary based on the job she would be doing.

55k is a ton of money for the job she was hired to perform (unless you include sleeping with him -- then she was being grossly underpaid).

and while not per se illegal, it is a breach of university policy to have a meritricious relationship with a subordinate. in most employment settings, sleeping with a direct subordinate will get you fired a lot quicker than smoking weed.

For a while now, many posters have maintained that Bobby Petrino is, to put it bluntly, a scumbag. There was jetgate, the way he left Louisville, the way he left the Falcons, and his generally undesirable conduct along the way, e.g. the manner in which he handled the loss to LSU last year. This latest faux pas does nothing more than reaffirm that he lacks moral fiber, integrity, and character. Yes, he is a good offensive coach. Yes, he has elevated the level of success for the Hawgs. But whether Arkansas decides to fire Petrino has absolutely nothing to do with whether Petrino is a class A jerk, and everything to do with the integrity of the institution. Petrino has proven his lack of character time and time again. Now Arkansas, as an institution has an opportunity to show its mettle. It can fire Petrino, sending a clear message that such conduct will not be tolerated or it can send an even clearer message that moral character is not important for the head coach as long as he is winning.

I think most would agree that this was a down year for the SEC when viewed from the standpoint of parity. There is LSU and Alabama, and then there is everyone else. Next year, more teams should enter the mix. Georgia has been on a tear and should improve a good bit in the offseason. Arkansas will have Wilson and Niles Davis and I'm sure Petrino will have plenty of passing targets. Auburn was incredibly young this year - will they be able to compete next year. Connor Shaw has really impressed me in the second half of the season with his ability to throw AND RUN. If they have keep Lattimore healthy, they could make another run at the East. This year was disappointing for MSU - is there any hope on the horizon. I think Tennessee is screwed. Will Florida finally get it together?

Not positive, but I think it was Al from Dadeville.

LSU will beat Arkansas. Les will slow the pace of the game way down, just like he has all season. LSU will own time of possession. Our D will have fresh legs all day long. Spencer Ware will cram it straight down their throats all day long. Arkansas doesn't have the depth on D to stop him. Arkansas - don't even both watching film from the Bama game because it won't help you - you aint got that D. And don't even bother quoting the numbers from the West Virginia game. We jumped on top of them early and Chavis gave them everything underneath to slow them down and eat up more clock. If you look at the number fo times they threw the ball and their total passing yards, it comes out to about 3 yards an attempt.

I can't believe you guys didn't jump to number 1 or 2 after the arse whipping you laid on Vanderbilt this past weekend...

Our offense is nothing flashy but at the end of the game you will look up at the scoreboard and wonder where all those points came from. That being said, I do think your defense has been improving and has benefitted from playing less than stellar offenses.
