I wasn’t talking about the 10 straight TDs. I was referring to the fact that some people can’t fathom that we could possibly have a good offense because we built this particular offense with portal players.Quote:

I posed the question after watching Arkansas score the last of 10 TDs on 10 straight offensive drives with just 26 seconds left. I don't care how bad Pine Bluff is, do you realize how absurdly difficult that would be against Fayetteville High? Regardless of Spineless Bluff's ineptitude, an offense is going to have a hiccup or two like drive killing penalties, missed blocks, dropped passes or RB's slipping down trying to make a cut. Nothing derailed Arkansas's 10 drives last night. They never punted and never lined up for a field goal and never had a 4th down. Petrino was caught smiling after the 10th TD with only 26 seconds left. There was never a thought to taking a knee inside the 10 yard line and letting the clock run out.Quote:

I'll be looking for the kill shot in the early 4th. I'll be looking for a well oiled machine, without pre-snap penalties, poor blocking, missed tackles, dropped passes, fumbles, running the wrong way. Crisp quick play calling, not No-huddle using 27 seconds like we have seen the last 6 years!
Chugg away!!!! LolQuote:

Only thing that I disagree with is I might try a field goal. Even if it's first down just to get them ready for next weekQuote:

You think we need to open up the playbook? Hell naw! Lebby has kept everything on lock down and he's not shooting his wad against EKU. He'll score a lot regardless.Quote:
