SEC Network makes interesting selection for debut of network's '2019 Football Takeover' marathon
Need your college football fix with the month of June winding down?
If so, you are in luck as the SEC Network began a new marathon of SEC football games from last season the network is calling the “2019 Football Takeover” that starts on Monday.
The SEC Network selected four games involving SEC programs from Week 0 or Week 1 of the 2019 season and three of the games on the list make a ton of sense but one is interesting, to say the least.
Here is the scheduled for Monday’s “2019 Football Takeover” provided by the SEC Network:
- Miami vs. Florida Noon ET
- Portland State vs. Arkansas 3 p.m. ET
- Duke vs. Alabama 6 p.m. ET
- Oregon vs. Auburn 9 p.m. ET
Clearly, one game doesn’t hit quite like the others.
Credit the SEC Network for at least giving Arkansas some coverage during a 2019 football marathon but a 20-13 season-opening win against Portland State isn’t going to generate much buzz — even from die-hard Razorback fans.
After this schedule was promoted online, as you could have predicted, Arkansas fans shared their thoughts on adding the Razorbacks to the slate:
I appreciate the effort, but maybe not worry about having Arkansas representation for the 2019 football season https://t.co/LVkVL5B4V1

Did Arkansas lose that one?

I remember that Miami vs. Florida game…as I recall, neither team looked really good & Feleipe Franks was Feleipe Franks…lots of talent but between the ears not much.
The Oregon vs. Auburn game is one that I did not watch, but will watch it this time. It was a last-second finish if I recall.
We stunk up the field. Nothing went right in that game. Still canβt believe we won that one.
Marsh…true…not a lot of Good Football on both Sides that night…but a Win Is a Win…I’ll Take One Every Game.
Well, that was Arkansasβ highlight of the season..
No the highlight was firing Morris.
Is it really any worse than Duke/Bama?
Booches94…That First Quarter Was Good. Duke’s Defense was Wired and Stopped the Tide…Mid-Way thru the 2nd Quarter…We started to Play Better…little by little. Sark mixed-up the plays well in the Second Half.
