That Arkansas game was a one-score game in the 4th, and Arkansas' last TD came with 2 minutes left in the game. There were very few times when the game was basically over before it started that year. IMO a big part of the excitement from 2009 to 2010 was not just because of the Egg Bowl win but because our team was playing hard every week. That's not a comment on what we have or haven't seen this year, but that 2009 team was pretty competitive with a talent deficit.
