re: 7 years ago we lost to tOSU

[quote]Only that was proven true. I'm not talking about winning national titles as I think that would be rare if possible but competing nationally can be done at just about any P5 school with the right coach. If you can win national titles at places like Nebraska, Washington and Tennessee then you c...

So you're one of those who believes if Boise State had played in a real conference, and not just played one real team a year, then they would have been identically good as Nick Saban's Alabama teams? Or the USC teams in the early 2000s? That Mississippi State team that got to #1 mid-season finis...

You still don't get it. Now you're comparing Arkansas to Alabama and LSU. The Cubs, Alabama, et al. are all solid top-to-bottom products in major markets that are only missing one single thing. A coach. To pretend that the *only* thing holding back Arkansas is a coach is not true. And Missi...

[quote]Not really. Cubs went over 100 years between championships. They've had plenty of teams good enough to win it all and they always found a way to lose anyways. Sounds just like Arkansas to me. [/quote] This is about the worst comparison I've ever read. Unless you honestly believe that...

Why do you enjoy living in perpetual negativity? Just enjoy the fact that the new coach has neither a winning record here or a losing record. Cheer him on, enjoy the change in schemes, troll some other teams on the Rant, get overly optimistic, enjoy the wins we shouldn't get, pull for the team to ...

Just a point of order, Snoop is not "thug culture". What they had going on at USC was "celebrity culture". They had Will Ferrell on the sideline alongside Snoop. And starlets dated players. Snoop is chill, not thug. It's not like they had a Miami thing going on with connections to drug gangs ...
[quote]Texas football today is a lot different than 1970. [/quote] All of football is a lot different than 1970. All of football is a lot different than 1997. SEC football is very different than 2006. It seems strange that people need to be told this. I've heard people say we would hav...
Do you think that the in-state kids we have lost out on in the last 5 years were the difference between our results and being good/great? Do you think that on average we lose games because we lost out on in-state kids, or that we lost out on out of state kids? Do you believe that Arkansas high sch...
Do these kids get a template given to them? Every one of those tweets reads the exact same, "Blessed to receive..." No, you got lucky with your genes and good coaching to exploit your talent....

This is why people are so reluctant to get on board the "Fire Bert" train. Yes, Bert has underperformed his expectations. Yes, his losses are worse than his best wins here. However, as Arkansas fans, we are tired of listening to fans who say "We are the equals to any team in the nation, we ...
Do you have a real source saying that we turned down Gundy over Bielema in 2012? Also, to avoid any revisionist history, the stat lines between Gundy and Bielema in 2012 was this: BB: .739 winning percentage, 3 conference championships, 3 BCS bowls, 4 10+ win seasons MG: .657 winning perc...
It's funny because when you get outside of the Arkansas bubble, most people in the nation think of us as a small time program that traditionally overachieves. I love when I spend time in Chicago or California and people say things like "I love watching Arkansas, every time I turn it on you guys a...
Sigh. South Carolina: Population 4,900,000, Black population 1,372,000 Arkansas: Population 2,900,000, Black population 445,000 BUT GUYS! Arkansas and South Carolina are totally 100% identical!!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: That's just population differences, it doesn't ...
If you think it's so laughable then name ways that 2011 Alabama is better than 2016 Alabama. Name ways that 2011 LSU defense is better than 2016 LSU defense....
[quote]All I get out of this is that we won. Meanwhile, the fat man actually lost to Toledo and Rutgers, not almost lost...LOST. [/quote] But that's the point. Petrino could only beat the cupcakes consistently. He would get beat in the games that mattered, back then that was Alabama and LSU...
[quote]If you took the good teams from the east back then and traded them with the shitty teams from the west back then, then you would have the current SEC. You can't tell me that most of the teams in the West would win the East this year, all would be top 3 at worst in the east. Florida is...
[quote]It was a one possession game until the last 10 minutes or so of then game. [/quote] It was not. LSU scored last with 10 minutes to go to go up by 24. ...
[quote]2011 LSU was being touted as having the best résumé in CFB history prior to the egg they laid in Nola against a team they had already beaten. I mean LSU has three losses this year, how can you compare them to 2011 LSU with a straight face? [/quote] It's a logical fallacy to say that bec...
