Arkansas

It's currently trending toward a mid 40's wet night game.

Plus, a win gets Bert play time with the Mrs.

My head tells me it's not even close. My heart, as usual, says win.

Oddly enough Upig finishes 2nd in the West at 6-2.

Might have to win the Egg Bowl for a salvaged season. 7-5 with this schedule will not be good.

I guess Auburn is our best win so far. Maybe USM or La Tech is 2nd? (I can't believe I just typed that.) Hell, Vandy ended up beating both our east opponents.

We were number 1 for 5 weeks last year, we'll be fine

Shump will go for 200. We are better than Tenn-Martin.

Actually it was the passing defense that UTM exploited... 380 yards passing

[Bothrops]

Come on guys Arky was going through the motions with T Martin.

[PendingTransaction]

Maybe Dak can destroy them. But if we lose, we are Vandy. We won't have a win worth talking about.

Yeah, but UTM did what every passing team has done vs Arkansas... Passed for big yards. They're dead last in pass defense in sec

Usm and la tech looking good haha

LSU is a vastly overrated football team. They have been all year. State should have beaten them. Ole Miss is going to beat LSU. Brandon Allen has improved MUCHOS the last few weeks. Dak, honestly, has not been very sharp lately. Just being a 6pack realist, we are going to struggle against Arkansas. I doubt we score 3 TD's up there. Hope to hell I'm wrong, but nothing I've seen lately leads me to believe we will simply outscore them. Maybe there will be a Chris Jones sighting up in NWAR.

Our defense matches up a lot better against pro style offenses than they do spread offenses. Not really surprised we beat LSU but thought it would be closer. I could see Dak giving us trouble since we let Chad Kelly rush for 100+ yards on us. Should be a fun game with probably the top 2 QBs in the league

And LSU is dead last in passing offense in the SEC. In other words, they can't exploit Arkansas's biggest weakness.

Actually, if I am not mistaken two of the highest points we have allowed all year are to the two pro-style teams that we have played all year. LSU (21) and Alabama (24) which is still not too bad. A&M we allowed 30, so that was the worst thus far. It seems like against spread teams we have been allowing around 17 points on average if I had to guess.

Hey Todd WPS is an Arkansas fan. Woo Pig Sooie or WPS for short. Carry on.

[Liverpooldawg]

I actually like the matchup. We will score on them, and I prefer our secondary vs a bunch of Tight Ends instead of Ridley's.

Not saying we win...but I think we score 25-30 points, which should put us squarely in position.

Agree, wish it was in Starkville.
