They werent just talking about going 10-2 and going to the sugar bowl. They wanted the SEC title and a Playoff.

Arkansas fans are now talking about going 4-8 or 5-7 and potentially looking for a new head coach after next season.

I dont understand why they thought they would be SEC title good so fast?

Pittman inherited an absolute DUMPSTER FIRE when he came in and they were the Vandy of the West and had no talent and horrible recruits and had not won a SEC game in over 2-3 years and made them competitive and went 9-4 last year.

They lost a lot over the past year. Pittman still has a long build ahead of him.

In 2019 when state OM and Arky were looking for coaches, arkansas was the worst

State had a horrible coach who wasted lots of talent on defense and couldnt score and ole miss had a lot of talent but they just had a inept coaching staff that thought hurting players was how to win games. Arkansas had less talent than missouri 2 years ago.

Pittman has done great at arkansas but the idea they were going to win the west in year 3 was insanity. I guess everyone just gets sick with sucking for so long ... we know the pain.
I don?t know of any Arkansas fans who expected an SEC title this year. I just think most expected to be about like last year, 8-9 wins with an outside shot at 10.

A three game losing streak would definitely get the natives restless but I don?t think going 7-5 is the end of the world if it happens. Still lots of season left and Pittman is still infinitely better than Chad Morris. Arkansas fans have been frustrated for sure with both coordinators this year though.

Not sure if I would say Arkansas had less talent than Missouri since Arkansas usually outrecruited Mizzou almost every year but they were definitely horribly coached.
