Your pre-season prediction...

you forgot to tell us how bielema's weenie tastes?

Imma guess it takes like a chedder-wurst.

Hudsheen, seriously, what do you think our strengths are against the Hogs? Obviously our offense -- three established running backs, an explosive run game, and a running QB -- really, Broadway might be key. You think that's enough to justify all the hootin' and hollerin' about a victory?

if the team that played florida shows up, we win going away, if the team that played OSU shows up we wont. It will not take a miracle to win this game, not even close.

OK here is the deal and I think that it will come down to this----They will try and run the ball against our guys with a bunch in the box---remember that our guys are also 300 pounds plus and have started and played against the Floridas and the OK States and yes even the SDSUs and ECUs and although it will be a tough place to play we won't be any more awed then HC at Florida---A lot depends on our kicking game and if we are stopped I hope our Aussie can get us some great defensive Field position!!!! I don't think that they can make many 8-12 play drives on our guys and their late key injuries also help our cause------I think that we will see speed in the return game like we have never seen in our schools history and we just might break one---T-Bine save my post!!!

You'll probably know after the game. I hope not though.

Hootin' and hollerin'? Sounds like something a Cajun fan would say, alright....

Troll.

Agin C I will do all the hooten and hollering I want

Your take is that beating the Hawgs would be on par with ULM Hoax. Let me say the Hoax BEAT the Hawgs. They knocked the Hawg quarterback out of the game. It was from a serious hit after being under duress often.

I also think the Cajuns have a better team than the Hoax of last year.

The new Hawg coach is trying to run with the big dawgs of the SEC. In other words abandon scoring for power football and defense. The Hawgs were not built for that. This is the first year with those type of players being recruited. They are new to this system, this is the third year under Hud.

I am much more concerned with KSU. We will lead the Hawgs early and by a lot, they will have to play from behind.

This is exactly the kind of wishful thinking I am trying to get us to confront. Seriously, I cite a litany of potential problems, suggest how we can overcome them myself, and ask for other thoughtful consideration and all I get is 1)trolling accusations; 2) infantile phallic jokes; and 3) bald assertions that Arkansas's entire offense is going to be completely dysfunctional, meaning we will lead early and by a lot. Seriously?!? What if it's OUR defense rather than their offense that doesn't work? Are our recruits somehow magically set up for this new hybrid defense but Arkansas's offensive players are completely ill-equipped to run a basic pro offense? This may very well be the case, but it's just hoping and wishing. On paper, it's a miracle for us to win.

We keep saying this but could somebody actually point to some specific players they think will not operate efficiently in a pro-style offense, please? Just one! Their o-line is actually pretty legit -- all four star recruits with a gritty walk-on and an all-american center. Which one can't run block? A four-star QB, rated a top 10 pro-style passer coming out of high school. A four-star RB returning, a five-star true freshman, a speedster, two monstrous fullbacks. They are weak at TE with the injury, for sure. And they are weaker at wide receiver after injuries and losses. But I don't see why they can't potentially run a pro-style offense.

I could sit here and nitpick through our players too or just look at everything in a rosy light, but come on people we need to face the facts -- we are more than likely going to lose! Stop being delusional, and let's just hope we get out w/o any serious injuries.
