re: Arkansas is an important barometer game

I think Brennan has a lot of potential, though he needs time

We only get a few Tiger games a year and even fewer games against SEC foes. So I gonna have fun watching them.

damn right, man....the season is very quickly winding down. enjoy it while you can!

I'm confident O will have em ready. He did last season.. like him or
Not this is a different team to this point. They look disciplined and well coached. Young bucks getting better each week and the core group of freshman n sophomore leaders seem to be bought in completely. I want 10
Wins and I believe this staff and this team will get it done. This is what I've felt O needed year one. Just because he's not a proven HC like a tom Herman etc. I was terrified where the program was going after troy. 3 out of 4. And should be 4 out of 5 heading into tenn. Saban was right in what he said about troy. he must have saw something on film. This team learned that they must prepare and bring it against everyone. They should carry this with them to close out the season and into 2018. A lot of positives will come from playing so many young bucks next year. Devin Rashard greedy chaaison Divinity Ingram Charles Cush Magee etc etc. lot of experience gained and this group is legit. If Lowell and Myles step up. This team can be very good next season. Two X factors would be if clapp
And/or Toby stay.

I'm starting to wonder if our QB situation is really fixable though.

Not this season.

Etling is what he is and will start the rest of the way.

Only thing O'Canada can do is get Brennan some more game action earlier in prep for 2018.

I just hope that King Lowell can get his shite together in the passing game and become legitimate competition for Brennan in the Spring and Fall. MVU (LSU) doesn't need another Harris Clone with a strong arm that can't accurately throw the football, learn the playbook or read defenses.

Nobody knows what we got there because he hasn't actually played in a live football for over 2 years. Narcisse =

We win by 23

Good teams like Auburn and Alabama have clobbered Arkansas. They have played some weaker SEC teams close.

the transitive property rarely works in sports, esp college level sports. you see, human performance is not 100% predictable. we are not computers.

Arkansas almost always plays us tough and has won their share of the games against us the last several years. they have embarrassed us more than once. and just about every one of those years they had an "inferior" team that others beat handily. yet many fans continue, year after year, to overlook them.

this very well could be a trap game. arky players will be out for blood. their coaches are coaching for their jobs also. if we come out flat like against florida last year and (or) make a lot of mistakes, we will lose that game. w/o question we will not match the intensity we had last week and neither will the fans.

this is a game where the team may NEED FAN SUPPORT to win. I seriously doubt they get it. the new LSU fan only shows up in big games and generally leaves at halftime.
