Opponents View: Bielema knows Hogs can't take Ragin' Cajuns lightly

[NewsCopy]

FAYETTEVILLE — Neither Arkansas’ new coach, nor the Razorbacks that Bret Bielema inherited, speak much to what befell Arkansas’ 4-8 season of 2012 and what that bodes for Arkansas in 2013.

However, last year is a hot topic when Bielema discusses the University of Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns, Arkansas’ season-opening foe at 3 p.m. Saturday on Fox Sports Network television from Reynolds Razorback Stadium.

We've eventually got to get over the SEC hump. The near-win over Florida last year still leaves a really bad taste in my mouth.

I think that was the worst loss that I can remember. It pains me to even think about that game.

Bielema. Is this the coach's name or an eating disorder he has?

hasnt our win over TXAM aggies, been transferred into the SEC column?

First article had that we played SDSU last year in the NOB. Wow.

Arkansas is giving us lip service. They don't really respect us. They believe they have been purged of the cancer that crippled them last season. They are one of college football's elite programs in the most elite conference. They are used to having everything given to them in games like this. They learned no lessons from last year. They believe they are entitled and they will always think that way when we play them until we hit them repeatedly in the mouth so hard it brings them back to cold hard reality.

Time to get fired up. This is game week and its Tuesday. Last day of solid food, only liquids from now until game time. We all must be ready to play!!

I'm sure you are joking, but if that was the case, by using your logic, we beat Tulane years ago and they once were in the SEC. Problem solved. Let's continue with a another victory.

GEAUX CAJUNS!!!

Different situation, CajunSaint08, A&M is currently in the SEC, so hence our record in vs current SEC opponents has 1 victory. Tulane is long since out of the SEC, so those victories would not count.

I see where 31Ragin97 is going with this, and have actually seen a website that has our record vs the SEC with 1 lone victory, forgot the publication/website. Not saying I agree with the logic, but we do have a win vs teams that are currently in the SEC.

RaginDave, I understand the logic, and there might be a website out there that states we have one lone victory against a current SEC member, but in reality, we haven't yet. Beating a team that wasn't, but is now is the same as beating a team that isn't now but was. And saying we have (and I'm not saying you said it) is like French kissing your sister....just ain't right. So let's go get our first legit SEC victory this weekend.

Peace,
GEAUX CAJUNS!!!
