Look up Little Rock Touchdown Club 9/12/22 on youtube. The full interview is there.
Arkansas was flashing the horns down on their jumbotron after the Texas game last season and nothing became of it. They will have to learn to get over it.
Both Arkansas and Alabama are officially recognized as NC's by the NCAA for the 1964 season. #1 Alabama for the AP (which was awarded prior to their bowl game which they lost) and #2 Arkansas after their bowl game (that they won and finished undefeated that year) by the FWAA and 6 other selectors.
This game was torture to watch. Not the gameplay itself but having to hear that bayou banshee shrieking all game left me looking for the excedrin half way in.
2 days ago in a southwest times article "How Arkansas Razorbacks redefined their place in the SEC hierarchy with two moves" it is stated that the university is nearing completion of a new deal for Pittman that they would like to see finalized within the next couple of weeks.
Both Arkansas and South Caroline joined the conference back in 91. And with A&M and Mizzou joining in 2011, it would makes sense of the 4 "newest" teams getting moved out going off the logic of this article.
I want to know how they are going to make and chose who goes in what pre existing conference and what 16 teams go into the two 'new' conferences. At first I was wondering why those 4 teams in particular was chosen, then I remembered that SC joined when we did back in the early 90, while A&M and Mizzou around a decade ago making us the 4 newest teams in the conference.
It doesn't matter anymore. He went to twitter and stated he is opting out of the game and declaring for the draft. He also has a hearing tomorrow. Regardless, he is done at AR.
Sad thing is the is not the first time he has gotten into trouble under Odom. While he was in Mizzou he was charged with felony assault. He pleaded guilty and received a misdemeanor charge. He was removed from the team but then Odom reinstated him. I don't know if he will do the same thing a second time. It will be worth keeping a eye on.
@LSUSMC I will admit that this article is bad and missing a lot of context (fault is also on the initial article and the "source"). The only thing I wanted was to show (via direct quote from Pittman himself) that it was not cut and dry as him wanting more money for himself. And I will admit I shouldn't have to read several different articles and watch several different videos to fully understand what is really going on. But most columnist will take a statement and run with it without checking deeper. Hell just last month a article went out on Nov 8 saying Pittman injured his shoulder lifting his dog filming a "yessir" video. Pittman stated it happened while was still in GA, a credited sports writer made a statement on twitter, and then 247 sports ran a article making the claim it happened that past weekend and using the tweet as the "source". Context man, Context.
@LSUSMC Since I tried attaching a direct link and its awaiting moderation, let me say this. Go on youtube a search for a video called "Sam Pittman Outback Bowl Presser" uploaded on Dec 5 by Pig Trail Network. Skip to 13:29 and you will hear directly from him the reason why he changed agents. He said himself it has to also help his staff and coaches.
I had to look it up and there are currently only 10 teams that has had their coach for at least 10 years or longer. Of those 10 8 are with P5 schools.
No lie at first I read this as "handing out team superlaxatives" and had to take a second to process that.
I remember reading a article published by hookem.com a few days ago saying that the shorthorns could theoretically still make a bowl game if they was to win their 5th game and A&M was to win the LSU game. Thank you LSU for preventing that to happen. The more they suffer the happier I am.
I'm interested in how SEC shorts and Matt Mitchell handle it as well.
From a person who has no emotional stake to this game, it was a hell of a watch. I could only imagine the high blood pressure all across the state during the game.
Jimmy Morrissey from Pittsburgh won it last year. I feel the same about Bennett, dude is straight up scary and we had to triple team him (with little effect) when we played Georgia.
Maybe in a decade or so it will turn into a real one. We do recruit against each other a lot. But by that time Texas and OU will be in and who knows what will happen then. It does not take away the fact that we want to beat Mizzou all the same.
The "Battle line Rivalry" that the SEC forced on us always felt fake and not warranted. I know for me I have no ill will towards Mizzou. Texas on another hand, pure hate but I am old enough to remember some of the SWC days.
Arkansas recently released the depth chart for the Mizzou game and Burks is on it. It is showing no change to this week chart compared to last week.
Yea Bama won but Texas also lost and wont make a bowl, so there is some good to go with the bad lol.
I know moral victories do not count. But after the past couple of year, the Georgia game earlier in the season and Bama coming in at 20 point favorites at home just to win by 7, this loss does not sting at all. Years past this team would have folded and gave up.
2006 was the last time we defeated Alabama. I think we are the only team in the west that has not defeated them since Sabin arrived. Hell the first Iphone was not even announced yet and I was rocking a motorola Razr.
As much as I love to see Texas lose, it hurts to see our signature out of conference win lose week after week after week after..... They are going to have fun against Bama next season week 2. I can't wait.
Arkansas won and Texas just lost to a 1-8 Kansas at home. Pure bliss.
So Chad Morris is currently trending on twitter. The only reason is people are now comparing Dan Mullin to him. As a razorback fan who suffered through the Morris "era", you have my sympathy.
I honestly had to do a double take when I read the score. It took me a while to process that was not the final, but half time score. Wow.
So Arkansas is 2.5pt favorites but only has a 40.6% chance to win, makes sense.
Ahh yes I remember this guy. He was the one who claimed in August that Arkansas was a SEC bottom dweller the same as Vandy. That point could of been made in the past (and rightfully so as Vandy even defeated Arkansas in 18' during the Morris years), it is not so much any more. He received a lot of flack for that statement.
One thing I have noticed though is so far with him there has not been any real 2nd half collapses. Hell if anything happens they just answer right back. I'm still not used to it (I blame Bielema and Morris) but it's an amazing feeling to see them answer right back and not break or give up. Those kids will straight up fight the entire game for him.
