Agree.

Agree on the OL. I still believe games are won and lost in the trenches.

Great logic
TAMU and Auburn both beat us last year. TAMU lost their QB early in the year and we barely beat them. Nix got hurt and played hurt vs us. That game was a magnificent game, but no where near the normal. All 3 programs were Bowl caliber teams. UA and OM were not. You can gloss over that as much as you?d like, but we went from 4-0 beating Arky by almost 100 combined points and 36 over OM vs them for 2 years to 0-4. That means either they?ve really comeback, we have diminished, or a little bit of both. What Pitman has done at Arky is nothing short of fantastic. He deserves SEC COTY.

And he is going to get better.

I feel like a lot of y'all have no idea what nuance is. You just see score and record and assume we suck.
Arkansas had a bunch of 5th and even some 6th year seniors. They were one of the oldest teams in the league. Big big difference in a 22-23 yr old kid that has been in an SEC strength program for 4-5 years and a 18-19 year old kid that hasn't.
Arkansas will have a tough year next year and we probably will beat them by multiple scores at home.
Same can be said for the egg bowl next year more than likely.
Great post!

No one is saying blown past us, but we went from top half of the SEC W to bottom pretty quickly.

Pittman or Huepel are both COYs for what they have done with their programs.

I mostly agree with his post but I'm reluctant to predict next year just yet. With all the turnover now in offseason due to the portal, NIL, and all that stuff and then throwing in the Covid extra year of eligibility ... kinda tough to know right now what any team will have next year. Other than Bama and Ga keep on keeping on.

We're tied with Arky & TAM for 3rd in SEC W. Arky has tie breakers against both of us. We have tie-breaker over TAM. We finished 4-4 which equaled all of Dano's year except 2014. We're middle of the pack which is where we normally are.

4-4 in the sec is where we've pretty much been for the last decade plus so really no change. Dan had one winning record(with Dak).

I'm actually gonna correct my previous statement some. We were 3-5 or less 4x in Dano's 9 years. 4-4 four other times and then 6-2 in 2014.

Maybe it just feels worse than it is then. Watching Thursday and Friday, I was honestly really impressed with Arky and shocked at how the EB never felt close after the half.

We are in 5th in the standings if TAMU beats LSU.

Correct. I missed on that. And TAM will probably beat LSU. Still where we have fluctuated between over last 12 years. We've mostly oscillated between 3rd and 5th most years. JoMo was 4-4 & 3-5 in his 2 years.
