Is Arkansas better than we thought? Is USC worse? Both?

I had UPig penciled in as a win for both us and ole miss, but lately, I'm not sure. There 3 losses are @#18 UF, a close loss to #10 aTm, and a close loss @ a Rutgers team that hung with #8 Lousville to the end (or is UL just way overrated?).

Now, they have struck first against a USC team that's also a huge question mark.

At this point I wouldn't be shocked if we beat USC and lost to Arkansas - could not have convinced me of that 2 weeks ago.

I think it's a mixture of injuries to USC, along with team turmoil, and AR being better than expected. I didn't think before the season we beat either, and still don't think we will.

USC is overrated. I think we're more likely to win at South Car than at Ark. Especially after watching our LBs disappear against LSUs power run game.

USC is worse. They were taken to the wire by UCF, who barely came from behind to beat Memphis in the fourth quarter the following week. Although I do think Arkansas is looking more and more like a toss up game for us rather than a probable win.

When was the last time we won a game in Little Rock? It's like expecting us to beat LSU or a Gus Malzahn coached team. I don't expect it until we get that first win out of the way.

I see what you were getting at. Arkansas looked awesome.

SC is a good football team. They have a strong defense, mobile qb that's accurate and a big time rb. Well balanced and pretty well coached. Their UCF performance doesn't mean jack ****. Arkansas, on the other hand, hasn't improved beyond week 5. But unless they give up on the season, it will still be a challenge for us to get a win in LR.

They won't give up with a permanent head coach....

But, we won't need for them to give up to have a shot to win this one.

We might not win a million-7 like we did last year, but Mullen has never lost to a team that is worse than us. And as of today, the pigs are clearly at the bottom of the SECW.

Chaney's playcalling has been terrible the last two games, when we get behind he throws it every down and abandons the run even though we have two good RBs

The only good units on this team are RB, TE and DL. OL is average and the rest are trash. I don't get how we go from losing to A&M by 12 to losing by 45 to south carolina...it's looking like brandon allen won't ever start again after this season if he doesn't improve...he's mentally weak. Almost 3 straight games with a pick 6 lol. Next week is going to be uuuuugly
