The Arky Game - A Scary Measuring Stick

[The Prowler]

Wanna know how you stop Arkansas and get them all flustered and bickering? Bring the sink on Defense and punch them in the mouth and don't stop until you see 00:00 in the 4th Qtr. Don't call for passes that causes Frazier to ”read” (one read, if he ain't open...take off). If I don't see more than 3 roll out passes (rolling the whole pocket), I'm going to be pissed. I also hope I don't see that nickel and dime package bullshit all day (hint: we don't have the secondary to cover anyone, right now), so stay in the 4-3 and BLITZ LIKE YOUR HAIR'S ON FIRE. I wanna see some Joe Lee Dunn type defenses. I know they'll get some passes off, but they'll be down to their fuckin 4th string QB.

I know Frazier has been watching film on Brady, Marino, Montana, Elway, Campbell, Cox, Todd, etc. and I hope he can channel their mentality. But I really want to hear that Jake Holland was watching film of Mike Singletary, Dick Butkus, Chuck Bednarik, Jack Lambert, Sam Huff, Ray Lewis, Bobby Bouche, & Alvin Mack.

It's really not going to be close, guys. Load up on the Tigers.

The Razorback offensive line and secondary more than offset every bit of the talent elsewhere on the team.

I bet we could get Prowler as a combination OC/DC for pennies on the dollar compared to Loeffler and Van Gorder.

It's a lot easier to tell folks on a message board to be patient than it is boosters and the athletic director.

The defense doesn't need to be patient in this game. 

[Godfather]

I got to be honest, this game scares the shit outta me.  For several reasons. 

1. Arkansas has nothing to lose, granted neither do we, but they have had their manhood questioned.
2. Traditionally we do not look good after a bye week, nor do we typically play well early in the morning.
3. Arkansas can still score, and whether we will is up for debate.

Question for Prowler, who thinks we win this game (handily I might add). 

Will you still have patience if we lose?

What about if we lose big?

I'm with you. Arkansas can still hit the big play and I haven't seen Auburn stop the big play (LSU doesn't do that). The Hogs defense is swiss cheese but is Auburn's offense a cheese grater?

Agree and disagree.  I think we have a lot to lose.  I feel like if we lose this one then recruits are going to start looking elsewhere.  I would hate to lose this class we have put together so far.  I know they aren't considered done until the LOI comes across the fax, but losing doesn't help.  Also, if the wheels fall off, then we lose our entire staff and recruits will bail on us.  I think we are in a must win situation. 

Other than that I agree with all points.

[Snaggletiger]

Forgetting the aftermath IF we lose for a second.  This game scares me for the same reasons.  Despite their collapse so far this season, Arky still has weapons (As Wes pointed out). And...despite a solid performance by our defense against LSU, (I don't care how LSU is playing, it was a damn good outing) we've still looked like...what did K say...a rooster fucking a picture frame..most of the season. 

I have no idea what that means but sometimes, the most random quotes are the best.

Plus, if Arkansas puts up 24, has this team done anything so far this season to make you think we can answer that?  I'll be there Saturday yelling like 9th grade school girl at a sleepover.  But, I don't have a good feeling about this game.  The resistable force against the movable object.

Friend of mine just emailed me this quote from Dee Ford.  Didn't link it so I don't know where it's from.  But....

•  On the big scores in SEC games: "It doesn't surprise me. No, it's not going to happen to us. Auburn's defense? We're not giving up 50 points. That's something we'll take pride in. We're playing championship ball right now."

I don't know where to start.....

I was thinking more along the lines of 5A.

I have to agree, and pose the same qwerschuns.

9th grade is too old, and he doesn't like 'em chubby neither

I asked him sometime ago about his patience and if memory serves he said same record this time next year.

When have I stated that we'd win this game handily?

Do I think we'll win? Yes

Will we show improvement on Offense (at the QB position)? Yes

Will we continue to show improvement on Defense? Yes

Will we curb stomp Arkansas' head? No

Will Tyler Wilson look like Johnny Unitas against Auburn's Defense if we don't pressure him? Yes

Do we have the DB's to cover Arkansas' receivers? No

Will I jump off the wagon if we lose? No
