You do not, particularly on defense and in the trenches.

I think our coach is better, honestly.


From a pure Xs and Os standpoint, that's probably right. However, being the head coach at a major college program is so much more than Xs and Os, it isn't funny.

That's true - the game starts 0-0 and Appy State beat Michigan, despite having virtually zero chance. Vegas says ya'll have about a 13% chance, I put it at 10% - and I even think Arkansas is 1 of the 5 best teams in the country right now - there's just such a gap between the top 2 and the rest of the top 25. (In Little Rock, I would give ya'll closer to a 25% chance).

I realize you guys are tired of us bringing up recent history but you're forcing our hand. Technically, we haven't had the athletes to go toe to toe with you for over a decade but somehow we've beat you 2 out of the last 3 (omitting Nutt's W).

From an Xs and Os standpoint, it's 100% accurate. No one will confuse Les Miles with a football genius. He would qualify for having the biggest set of balls in the coaching ranks with some of the plays he's called over the years. Bobby's not afraid to pull the trigger on some crazy shite either though.

I think 10% and 13% is insulting. I think 35-40% chance is a more accurate reflection of our chances. 100% of you are free to disagree with my opinion, and I'm fine with that. One thing is for sure, one fan base is going to be devastated.
