Maybe Elite is a strong word to use.... but they have done well the last couple of seasons. They are ranked 6th right now and I am sure they finished last season in the top 5, or just outside of it.


They finished 12th in both polls last season after losing to OSU.

Oops. Pays to finish reading the thread.

He's also wrong about the 2nd BCS bowl bid.LSU could lose to Arkansas and we would still go to the Sugar Bowl.No way that the Sugar Bowl committee passes on a top 10(likely closer to top 5) 1 loss LSU team.LSU would bring in the fans without question especially considering the fact that Houston is the likely opponent.The Dome would not be full for an Arky/Houston Sugar Bowl.That is what we'd call a ratings and ticket selling disaster.

by the way, here's your link

the obnoxious quote:

But one thing is certain: As of this point, in Bobby Petrino’s fourth season, the Arkansas Razorbacks have become an elite program.


Wally Hall is a Homer of the worst kind. He must think that folks in arky don't have access to any other news...oh yeah, they don't - my bad

Wally Hall is Pulitzer Prize material compared to the idiots known as Bo Mattingly and T.J. Carpenter. The arrogance in this part of the wasteland known as Ar-Kansas has no boundaries. Actually, I think Shawn and Wally are fairly objective when it comes to LSU.

If Arkansas beats us, they are going to be so pissed when we play in the BCSNC, Bama plays in a BCS bowl and they go to the Cotton. Cause that is what would happen.

Maybe they forgot to put "in Arkansas" at the end of the sentence.

That ONE BCS bowl and LOSING it to tOSU makes them elite

No, no; it's the SEC championships they've won; uh, no, wait, it's that Sugar Bowl victory, that's what it is; uh, no, wait; uh; oh hell, you're right!

That is exactly what would happen. Arkansas's computer score is horrible compared to LSU's and Bama's (FACT) and that will push them out of the way tie. LSU goes to SECCG by virtue of their win over Bama and a 12-1 SEC Champ plays for the NC.

Then the BCS comes calling and Bama is too hard to pass up (and probably in the top 4 anyway thus receiving an automatic bid).

The BCS can only take 2 SEC schools so the Cotton does what it can to get the close Arkansas team

You'll probably make a deal to go to Jerry's World like LSU did last year. Either way, it won't be a BCS bowl.

C'mon guys, we're being a little cruel. They have had some good teams, a few big wins, but zero skins on the wall. They embarrassed the SEC by losing to a Big 10 team (unforgivable) in the Sugar Bowl and their coach is as big an a-hole as Saban, but without the talent.

The state has no recruiting base, so living off leftovers they have not done badly.
