No Taylen Green with his 5 passing scores and 1 rushing score?
The first "non-TD" I was amazed that they didn't call it a TD. The other two could have gone either way, but like you said, it would have been hard to overturn with the review, but that first one SHOULD have been a TD.
I think you misread that. All week he was saying that he was going to feed the ball to the freshman and the kid balled out. If he didn't have confidence in him, he wouldn't have started him. Of course the media is really bad at taking sounds bits and moving them around to make them sound different than they are.
I can't believe that Malachi Singleton was able to come off the bench cold, in the 4th Qtr, trailing 14-13, and get the game winning TD. Sure, the Tenn Safety stepped aside to let him score so they could get the ball back instead of letting us run out the clock and kick a FG. Still, that is pretty gutsy, but how about that Ark defense keeping the game within reach to allow our offense the opportunity for the go-ahead TD. Now, Nico running outbounds instead of putting the ball in the air for a chance at a TD was strange, but he is still a young QB. He'll learn from that and he'll be a great QB before he's done. The cards just fell right on Saturday.
Not even close to last year, especially offensively. Dan Enos's offense never put up 600yds. Defense looks to be about as good as last year. Now, the shooting themselves in the foot is definitely indicative of a typical Razorback team from the last decade.
Right! He might not make it to the NFL due to being injury prone, but he could very well be a good coach. So I agree, saying "NEVER amount to anything" is pretty harsh and seems very personal.
I mean, he wasn't wrong back then. On a side note, it's not like Herbie has he ability to decide who gets in and who doesn't, so not sure why they are throwing blame his way. And wasn't FSU in the Top 4 before Championship weekend? So, the idea of the QB injuries being the reason for Bama getting the nod is crazy because the committee had no problem with the QB before then. I think the committee saw how Bama played and that impressed them more.
It's been 3 days I see SDS hasn't decided to either correct the article or remove it. Several people have mentioned it, but I'll say it again for those in the back. If you actually look at the picture it's Arkansas spelled backwards because they are doing a chant with the crowd. When the letters are facing you, you yell out what they spell. So, when Arkansas is presented to one side of the stadium, they yell, "Arkansas". The cheerleaders then turn away and the other set turn their letters for the other side of the stadium to yell "Razorbacks". Had the photographer been on the other side during the Arkansas chant, it would have had Razorbacks spelled backward. So, either correct your article or remove it. Otherwise this just makes SDS look stupid.
I don't think the Hogs will fire Pittman this year regardless of the performance and here's why. Arkansas has never been a school to throw around big money and Texas A&M already fired their coach. Arkansas would have to compete with A&M for whoever they want to hire. Now, A&M and Arkansas might not even be going after the same coach, but the agents can use the schools against each other to raise the price of their clients. Arkansas would then be on the hook with a huge buyout should the new coach not work out as well. We need to stop paying coaches to no longer coach at our school.
I heard a report from 247 Sports that barring a terrible performance against FIU on Saturday, Sam Pittman will be the head Hog next year.
Mike Irwin from Pig Trail Nation reported that Kristi Malzahan said they are retiring in Arkansas but that Gus will never coach here.
Not sure what you mean by "Be interesting to see what he can do with even a decent line". Did you not see him the last 2 years? He was one of the best QBs in the conference if not the nation. We know what he can do with a decent Oline and a bad defense. Now we want to see him with a decent Oline and a good defense.
This by far was the worst call. Luckily for us, the FG was no good and it went OT like it should have. When that happened, I just knew that we were going to lose. It was great game. Too bad the officials are always screwing up big time calls across all the games.
I agree the TEs were running free, but they only accounted for 103 yds of offense and 1 TD. BTW, the d-line was credited with 2.5 sacks, but you saying that the d-line only getting 2.5 sacks is a massive disappointment is a bit much. You do know that a d-line is graded by more than just sacks right? How about that d-line that only gave up 77 yds rushing? A d-line that had 9 TFLs? Or the pressure they created that forced 5 passes to be deflected and the QB was only able to complete 50% of his passes. Or how they stuffed the fake FG (though a flag negated that)? Sounds like a much better d-line than we've had in the past. I believe it is you Yankee that knows nothing. Sure, the defense wasn't perfect, they got us on a trick play. The problem is not the defense like it has been. This time, it's the offense. And I swear, if we do another 4th and Inches from the shotgun and hand it off instead of doing a QB sneak under center with a 6'3" 250lbs QB...man oh man.
How is it rigged? Bama's two losses were by a total of 4 points to ranked teams on the road. Tennessee's two losses were blowouts with one being to an unranked team (at the time). Your orange colored glasses need some cleaning.
Right. Some people won't be happy unless we're winning by 50 points every game. We're not Bama...yet.
Because Sam was getting our backups some game time. With as bad as our defense has been and with all the injuries, it was more important to get them done game time versus risking injury to the starters in garbage time.
So close. 41-27. Really good prediction.
^^^This is the perfect example of a Hog fan with realistic expectations for the season. We can still get to 9-4 with we clean up the defensive issues.
I agree. If we can get a few PIs, then we can keep it close with a chance at the end like Texas did. Our Pass D is better now that Slusher is back, but without Catalon, it'll definitely be more difficult. Our guys are starting to jell on the backend, but I don't know if it's enough. I would love for Arkansas to win, but I think Bama wins it.
If memory serves me right, he called his mom and told her that Nick Saban wanted to offer him a job at Bama. She reminded him that he gave his word to coach at Arkansas and that she didn't raise a son who would break their promise. That's where the loyalty aspect of him comes from.
You're exactly right. Your team's ability to jell after the App State shows they don't have any quit. That defense is legit. You guys just need your offense to turn it up.
@Greenwave81 and how did A&M not have more penalties with your o-line holding on almost every play. How are you even a fan of football if you don't know that holding occurs on almost every play. It's just a matter of how you hold and if you get caught. To anyone watching the game, Arkansas was in control until that fumble o the goal line by KJ. Arkansas was not the same team after that. Also, 8 fumbles (1 lost) is the reason "the Hogs didn't score 80 points" as you put it. I will say that A&M has a legit defense and you have Achane for your offense. Hopefully he stays healthy because without him, A&M is sunk.
I don't know about the high difference, but over the top of the goal post still counts as good. If what you say is true, then the kick would have been good.
I love the War Chickens comment. I've been calling them that for years. My dad is a Bama fan, so I started calling them that to get a laugh out of him.
"Georgia totally stymied a South Carolina attack that had some promising signs in the passing game a week earlier." Did they really shows promising signs in the passing game? Our secondary is hurting, so I don't think USC showed promising signs so much as Arkansas can't quite defend the pass right now. At least the defense is making the necessary stops when it needs to.
Umm, Cincy never tied up the game. The Hogs led by at least 4 points since 6:18 in the first qtr. Cincy scored 17 points following Haselwood's TD, but the Hogs also scored 10 points during that time to maintain the lead.
No it doesn't. I'm hoping it's not serious because our secondary was exposed by Cincy.
I hope Bama gives Texas the same "Welcome to the SEC" treatment that Arkansas gave them last year. WPS! Roll Tide!
