Are they a little envious of LSU up there?


Not really -- most fans like you guys.... or at least the ones I hang out with.

All it comes down to -- Nutt may have been a good coach, but the off-season was too much. The relationship with the fans was irreparable. Change was needed and that's what we got. Finally we shoot for the top.

And whether you agree with the way they did it or what Petrino did, Arkansas did what it had to do... and for once, we didn't settle for less.

I am sure that the Petrino brothers have a little more honesty and integrity than the Nutt boys. Just look at the job he did calling Louisville's offense. I will take him in a heartbeat.

I will never be envious to LSU. You guys are a great SEC program. The level of competition just got better with the addition of Petrino to the Hogs. I sure hope you guys have learned how to pronounce Arkansas. When Miles said Ar Kansas it produced a lot of bulletin board material. Thank you Les for motivating the Hogs.

DC, you are so diplomatic and tactful with your answers most times. I see you going a long way in AR politics if you so desired. I'll be the first to vote for you in the gov's race if you will throw your hat in the ring in the next election.

flatfoot, it is us who want to thank you for not beating us in regulation time. It was a selling point in Les's case in why we should be playing for the national championship. Oh yeah, no need to thank us for helping to get rid of Nutt and his posse for your win. His last game as a hog just helped him put the icing on his cake, and the money in his bank.
