YES I AM THE HAPPIEST HOG FAN...

and no one can convince me differently!
Not only am I celebrating this incredible NCAA run with all of you. I am going to be attending my first tourney game since watching us bring home the trophy in 1994. I’ve attended multiple NCAA’s, but a long time ago.
Here’s where I separate from all the rest. I began getting season tickets in 1991 in Barnhill and started taking my daughters from the time they were 4 yrs old. They are now 34 & 30, and it’s been daddy, daughter times with them all these years and now also take their kids(5)...my GRANDS.
I’ve DREAMED of just one more time doing something with the both of them and dad. Well it’s happening!
My wife is graciously helping their husbands with the kids, and for probably the first time in close to 20 years it’s just them and me...the 3 of us!
So if you’re at the game Mon and see a bald headed 60 yr old white dude with a beautiful girl on each arm, it’s me FCFGUY!
Yes as stoked as I am about the ballgame, spending two days with these ladies tops it! Oh yeah, they are just as wild about the Hogs as I am, and we WILL also be the loudest fans there.

Andre Hutchinson smh

Unacceptable. @NWAHutch tell that lady you demand an apology and two more press passes as a gift - so that @ThePositivePig can attend future games.

You didn’t win sportswriter of the year for nothing.

For context lady called Andrew Andre in the press conference after the game when it was his turn to ask a question.

Please let me know when those press passes become available and I will sit beside you for the remainder of the tournament.

I will also ensure you are called Hutch moving forward.

Thank you!

Hoops How Arkansas pulled off yet another comeback

The comeback kids did it again - rallied from a double-digit deficit to pull out a victory. Here's more on the adjustments from Muss and Devo...

Baseball Hogs grab game 2 in comeback fashion over Miss St

From the UA:
The Razorbacks have marched into Dudy Noble Field and won their first SEC road series of the season, clinching the three-game weekend set with an explosive 11-5 rain-interrupted win on Saturday afternoon. Christian Franklin continued his tear, launching one of the Hogs' four homers and powering the offense to its fifth double-digit scoring output of the year.

Arkansas' bullpen, meanwhile, was dominant in relief of starter Zebulon Vermillion. Caleb Bolden, Caden Monke and Kevin Kopps combined to allow one run on three hits and a walk while striking out nine over 5.2 innings.

Kopps earned his second save of the season, punching out seven in his four shutout frames.

The Razorbacks, Baseball America’s No. 1 team in the country, improve to 18-3 overall and 4-1 in SEC play on the year with the win against the No. 2 Bulldogs. Saturday's series-clinching victory marks the first time since the 2012 campaign that Arkansas has won a road set in Starkville.

Arkansas fell behind 3-0 early, but there were plenty of runs to come. The Hogs scored one in the top of the third, taking advantage of an error in center field to cut the deficit to two.

When Mississippi State re-extended its lead to three in the bottom of third, the Razorbacks came back with four in the top of the fifth. Braydon Webb's one-out homer set the stage for Franklin's two-out, three-run blast, which put Arkansas up, 5-4.

The Bulldogs tied the game at five, but the Hogs kept coming. Cullen Smith and Matt Goodheart each homered in the top of sixth, pouring on three runs to open an 8-5 advantage.

Although a 75-minute rain delay wreaked havoc in the seventh, Arkansas did not skip a beat. The Razorbacks tacked on two more runs in the top half of the inning when play resumed and one more in the ninth, putting the game away for good.

Monke, who struck out both batters he faced in his two-thirds of an inning, earned his third win of the year.

Arkansas goes for the sweep tomorrow afternoon, hoping to do so in Starkville for the first time since the 2010 season. First pitch in the finale against Mississippi State is set for 2 p.m. on the SEC Network with Tom Hart (play-by-play) and Kyle Peterson (analyst) on the call.
