Historically with this schedule Arkansas on the road has always been the trap game. They don’t beat Texas a lot but fuck me running when they do, it burns.

The last time that I went to Fayetteville for a UT/Arkansas game was in 1981.  I have tickets to this year's game.  Think about that.

I you're a youngster, or have erased that game from your memory enjoy these lowlights:

    I'd rather stay behind Georgia until they come to Austin.  Same way I felt about being behind SC in 05.  I'd rather have something to prove than something to defend.

    You say a lot of stupid shit and you do it at a rapid, voluminous rate. You’re like a shit howitzer, just fucking blasting the board with constant bullshit.

I've only been once, in 2021. I will be there this time as well, hosted by Arky in-laws. Feeling good about it.

I don't think this team shits the bed at Arkansas, but a Texas team will. Arkansas fans will discount a Texas win, Texas is supposed to and then they will talk all kinds of shit when Arkansas wins, "no team does less with more than Texass" or some shit like that.

Arky is good at doing less with less.

I hate that OU is our only rival that respects itself enough not to hand-wave a loss to Texas as Texas just doing what it's supposed to do. 

It makes me want to relegate A&M and Arkansas to the trash heap of other teams who have this born loser mentality, like Tech and Baylor. I will never understand that mindset.

Same on 2021 and also going this year as well.

I remember that game. I did not attend but watched it from some friends of my parents lake house in Pine Bluff. Heard way too much woo pig sooie the rest of the weekend. Sucked balls. Pretty much cemented my hatred of pig at the tender age of 12.

Also while we’re talking pig memories, did anyone attend the game around 87 or so where I wanna say it was Brett Stafford that threw a last second touchdown to Tony Jones? I did not attend but was watching with a bunch of people in my shithole apartment at Garden Gate across from Ables with the sliding door opened. West Campus erupted when that catch was made. Made for a glorious party the rest of the day.

As I recall that was a rainy day in Austin.  Watched it at Betos (I think that was the name of the WC joint across from Orange Tree).

Didn’t attend but I remember it well.  Tony Jones with the game winning last second touchdown.  Jones fist pumping after the catch and then camera cutting to Arkansas head coach Ken Hatfield irate throwing his headset to the ground.

one of the greatest Texas comebacks... what a game. I was a kid and we had to leave for a fucking wedding. turned off the TV and listened to it on the radio headed into town.

that 1987 game highlights the importance of rivalries. the season within the season and a lot of Texas fans didn't care to lose A&M or Arky before that, but those dark years in the 80s could always be made a bit better with a win over these toothless fucks and our bumfuck country step brothers from College Station. of course, that didn't happen as much in the 80s as we would like. But go 2-1 vs OU, A&M and Arky and it was at least some sort of salve in an otherwise shit sandwich of a year.

Also they're our 3rd rival but somehow we're their first.

We're everyone's first rival. We are the death star with more money. Sark is Vader.

Sark hasn't forgotten that beat down, and I bet he uses it as motivation to fuck their faces and take a Cleveland steamer on their women.

That's why they're a tier 4 program. Like Miss St, USCe, Vandy. Arky, and Kentucky.

My first semester at UT. Watched the game from a hot chick's house in Westlake.

It was ‘88 I believe.  McWilliams first season and kind of the signature win for the year. A dark period indeed.  But a glorious win in their stadium that absolutely sucked the air out of the place.

I was 10 and it is a major core memory not necessarily for the best reasons (my dad is a great man and a great father but he was an Arkansas fan at the time, fortunately my mother raised me right). Hard to believe it's been 37 years, not to mention that game was twice as close to The Game of the Century as it is to today. 

And now that I think about it, that game was halfway between undefeated national championship seasons.

Core memory for me too. I remember thinking our priorities are all KINDS of fucked up going to a wedding on a Saturday during football season.  My folks raised me right at least on that point I guess. 

Yep 87 it was and west campus erupted with that catch.   My four on the forty were dark years with 1990 as the only bright spot.  Trying to think of there were any four consecutive years as bad as Akers last year plus McWilliams.  

Remember the Fred Akers farewell tour t-shirts?

Nah man. There weren't. Nothing to see or lookup.

Assuming you just got out of a 25 year stint in a Siberian prison.

I was talking to a guy and his wife that I meet at the Michigan tailgate and mention that my cousin that is joining me to the game attended the 1995 Sugar Bowl, 1996 Fiesta Bowl and 2015? Notre Dame game with me. He interrupts an says why the he'll you bring him to this game. I reply, he did also join me last time to the Sugar Bowl against Georgia. So the question is has he shaken off the bad luck?

Polaroids or it didn’t happen.

It should be a yearly thing somewhere. 

Are we thinking tOSU's loss moves Georgia ahead of them in the polls for our game against Georgia next week?

Ohio State shouldn't drop further than five or six.

Looks like Georgia didn't exactly have a great game

1 . Texas

2 . Ducks

3. Lions

Pen state didn’t look good either against a mid USC team. And barely beat Bowling Green too.  
 

They probably will be 3 based on no true high ranked undefeated. But I could see them jumped too if Georgia had looked good

Not that it makes a shit but I think we get all the first place votes this week

I could see some OSU voters switching to Oregon. But I agree overall. 

I was impressed by the ducks. All but one of them I mean.

How do you have Penn st, OSU, UGA, Miami?

 I think it’ll be in that order.

not sure if Miami jumps UGA. I hope not.

i want the top 5 matchup.

They might flip Georgia and OSU based on most recent loss.  But wouldn’t hate it being in that order.  
 

it’s clearly Texas….Oregon..then those 4. Then Alabama/tennesse/ole Miss and we should be seeing Iowa St mixed in there in the top 10.

Ole Miss will not be in the top 10…..list again today.

Oregano remaining schedule 

Wow didn't notice Michigan was all the way down to 24

Yesh Iowa st probably takes their spot along with LSU moving up(had a brain fart about That game tonight) 

Oregon got 2 first place votes. Almost unanimous #1 in the coaches poll 

Georgia 4th. OU dropped out

We’re two spots away from not having playing a ranked team until Saturday.
which is fair.

our schedule has been trash, as it turns out, so far.
