That’s what I was thinking. At least 10 from the team I watched last night.
Arky got a real test this Saturday against a talented Cincy team, and they're at home, so 8-10 points sounds reasonable.
which team was that?...I know AR didn't exactly light up Cincy yday...
I would say 8 pts. is CERTAINLY believable...
If I see anything more than 7 on the parlay, I'm DEF. playing 'COCKS on the road w/ an EARLY game (11am local)...

Hope the Mayo Bowl team and scheme shows up!
I could say this in several other threads, but I'll say it here. We'll know by next Saturday evening whether our aspirations for any improvement from last season are to be realized. The fecklessness of our offensive line play last night is deeply disturbing. We were terrible; there's no use trying to sugarcoat it. Had it been left up to our offense to win the ballgame, we could not have won it.
Cincy isn't a garbage team. They are better than us. It was good, tough matchup for Arky and they held off several pushes by Cincy to get back in the game. Based on their game and our game, I would think a minimum of a 14 pt win for Arky.
I would take Arkansas if it was a 17 point spread based on watching both teams.
However we could get better by next weekend.

If we can get into Arky territory, maybe we can beat them with 50+ yd field goals if we get a little defense.
12 pm game, so that could help. Usually, if you're going to upset a nationally ranked team on the road, a noon game is the way to go. Crowd size will be less of a factor.
That doesn't matter at all. The game will tell the tale shortly, and no one gets killed for being wrong.
It would also help if Mack Brown and UNC showed up instead of Arky.
And you have no way of knowing otherwise. Speculation is what this thread is all aboot.
