@nikkichavanelle @NWAHutch Have you guys heard anything behind the scenes? He went out yesterday and things seemed to change. I haven’t heard a word about his condition.

It sounds like the Arkansas and Georgia players will lock arms before the game for a moment of unity to promote social justice. The Razorbacks have a patch for their jersey that the team agreed to unanimously—it’ll say equality. The Bulldogs patches will say together and equality

isn't the best in the world...people sitting up high closer to the speakers had to have ear plugs, move, or leave. Over 2/3 of the designated parking for season ticket holder went unused...the foundation could have sold the excess spots for well over 75,000 if they chose to do so. Every little bit helps this year.

Hogs played damned good 1st half. Played like poo poo paper 2nd half. I’m a known pessimist, who do I do? Tia

I'm really hungry this morning, I think I'll drop in at HawgBeat.com and have myself a gigantic bowl of Tid-Bits

Tell me why he doesn’t

Sam Pittman is now 1-0 in his career against the spread. That win percentage ranks first historically. Go Hogs.

We can surmise this ourselves but I was reading the DawgVent and they were very complimentary of Barry Odom and how hard he got the guys to play yesterday.

Looking around other sites...this game isn’t going to be close.

I think we have 1st team talent and this game is going to be a lot closer than most think.

Did I eat too many edibles?

This guy is pretty good at football, I'd say... https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/treylon-burks-shines-in-2020-opener

Miss State -17.5 my guess

How many accounts does everyone think ol' @jegreenwood has on the Bert? Over/Under of 3.5.

Last year, I did some graphs comparing the Hogs' progress - or lack thereof - from 2018 to 2019 in several key statistical categories. It was unique in that I didn't just look at the Hogs' numbers through X number of games because sometimes you play Alabama in Week 5 and sometimes you play Colorado State in Week 5, so obviously the numbers in those games are apples to apples. To account for that, I manipulated the 2018 numbers to go in the order of the 2019 schedule, matching up the same opponents (all the SEC West schools, Missouri and - last year - Colorado State) and then also compared the similar schools (so Eastern Illinois-Portland State, Vanderbilt-Kentucky, etc.). If you need a refresher on what that looked like, here's one of them: https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/look-comparing-2018-vs-2019-through-week-10

My question to y'all is how should I handle this season? Obviously there are now 10 SEC games instead of eight. I had planned on comparing the Kentucky game to the Tennessee game this year as that is the crossover SEC East opponent. It was going to be tricky with Notre Dame, but I was going to compare it to SJSU. Also Portland State-Charleston Southern, Colorado State-Nevada, WKU-ULM.

But now there's Georgia and Florida. What I am thinking about doing is just duplicating Arkansas' numbers against Alabama (Georgia) and LSU (Florida) and using those numbers for the 2019 vs. 2020 comparison. I think that is probably the most fair thing to do because those are probably the most similar teams.

Thoughts?

Mississippi State goes from unranked to No. 14...

Essentially the game comes down to one stat for me.

3-14 on 3rd downs.

GA's defense is elite, no doubt. But we have no shot, unless we can sustain drives. Franks was very ineffective yesterday and missed lots of throws. Not to mention he never went down the field.

The OL never really gave Boyd a chance but it was obvious that Georgia sold out to stop the run, and dared Franks to beat us with his arm.

Unfortunately, he couldn't.

Pittman said he felt the blocked punt really gave Georgia the game changing momentum and then the pick on the drive after that

Wishes they'd gotten more pressure on Stetson

I'm back......missed the conversations so I signed back up.


Now, back to the original post.

Our talent isn't that far off from competing. Go get some OL and we are in that game and might have a chance to win at the end.

Here are several notes from the loss to Georgia, including stuff on the Hogs' trick plays, QB play for both teams, Boyd's performance + much more... https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/hawgbeat-notebook-trick-plays-qb-talk-boyd-s-struggles-more

Now it's time for me to get some sleep.

Do we attempt multiple trick plays?

Almost forgot we get to talk to this guy next week.
