That was hard to read. Apparently we have to break in a new RB and we signed the number 10 JUCO OT.

I hope they're right. Seems like Bert is really good on one side of the ball and really bad on the other every year.

A lot of talking heads like to talk about how good he has done at Arkansas and I just don't see it. He's had some good moments for sure but people act like he's in the top half of the league as far as coaches. What he's done can't compare to the job Mullen and Freeze have done.

He knows how to beat Freeze. I enjoy that aspect of Bert.

His time at Wisconsin probably factors into this some as well though.

I might lean toward putting QB as more of a toss up because we haven't seen either one play much yet. If our (Arkansas) special teams don't get better we'll continue to lose a couple close games every year even if the offense and defense do a good job.

I've grown to like Arkansas sans Hootie and Petrino. I feel like we are kindred spirits of sorts.

If we are better than them at OL and secondary, may God have mercy on their souls.

That was hard to read.

Author of that article should NOT be writing sports. I mean .. who uses the word "penultimate" in an college football article. Lack of punctuation and incomplete sentences abound. What does this sentence mean? "Something about Dan Mullen."

He described the OL as .. "The unit is largely unheralded — not a single player is up for consideration for all-league honors — and also struggled in 2015. Only Florida and Texas A&M gave up more sacks and only the Gators and Missouri gained fewer yards per game on the ground." Yet, in describing 'Positional Edges' .. He gives the advantage to State on OL.

Only good part .. he sees the Hogs losing 24 - 21.

I'll be very disappointed and surprised if we are still fighting for bowl eligibility by Game 11.

I can understand the praise for his time at Wisconsin. He had a good run there. I really thought he was going to do a great job at Arkansas. Not that he's done a bad job but just not what I thought.
