    We almost beat a better team on their turf without a kicker and no pass rush

    It probably means we finish at the bottom of the west, but if we had a complete team, we could make some noise.

    Yep, chalk up a moral victory.

    As they say, we would be a NC team if we had better the players and coaches.

    Well we can't beat teams like Arkansas until we recruit better on defense

    We can beat teams like Arky all day long. We were screwed by our own ST and the officials.

    True. Last year Costello cost us the game and this year Ruiz did. The PAC 12 needs to get the hell out of the SEC and stop costing us games***

    Yep and a veteran HC Leach is 0-2 against first time HC that took over a dumpster fire. Leach took over a program with 9 or 10 straight bowls.

    Speaking of Turf I see that Arky still has the crappiest Turf in the SEC,

    I don?t get the animosity towards this game. Their defense is set up perfectly against our offense and it is obvious two years in a row. The only difference is this year we started moving the ball pretty much all game except one quarter.

    Because 37 pts would have beaten 31 pts.

    We’re a good bit better than Arkansas. They needed things to happen to win

    Are you really mad at Leach?

    We’re on the cusp of putting together the offense in our schools history over the next 3 years.

    What’s your beef?

    28 should’ve been enough regardless of the misses. Defense let us down

    They have better defensive personnel. We have a slightly better offense.

    They don't have either. We're better on both sides of the ball. They're significantly better at kicker though

    Yes, I'm pretty sure we're better on offense & defense & headed towards being significantly better than them

    Arkansas used the off week to their advantage. They had trick plays ready & their defense prepared & we still should've beat them.

    Final score could've easily been MSU 37 - Ark 21
