So I'm supposed to be afraid of an average 6-loss SEC team?

With six losses I would think the Hogs are below average.

I'm kinda leaning towards Mizzou in this game.

That Arkansas team would run wild in most conferences other than SEC. That side of the SEC made history this year by having every team in it bowl eligible. That is by far the most stacked division of any conference in the country.

Very true.


I have always thought and said that the good teams win the close wins. It's a true sign of a good team I think. It's amazing to me how many close ones they've been in and somehow found a way to pull then all out.

Can't lie. A little embarrassed that Missouri in title game. The east sucks.

That is why I constantly accuse poll voters of SEC bias: only half of the conference is better than every other FBS conference; the rest of it sucks.

Bummer Mizzou made title game. Georgia is a better team than they are. Georgia already blew them out. And would do so again if they played tomorrow.

It was Florida's fault. Missouri blew out the Gators in Gainesville and Georgia had literally no run defense in Jacksonville.

Missouri has won the east twice and only once beaten a team that had a winning conference record.

So you're telling me the 12th place team in the SEC would run wild in most conferences? LOL, ok bro.

Which team was that?

the team doesnt have to be undefeated to scare the opposition. arkansas is a really good football team. they struggled in the beginning of the year and are still coming into their own. 

 

hypothetically i would say they could probably play in the big ten and compete for the big ten championship. i think if they were in the acc we would probably see a match up of fsu vs arkansas in that championship game. 

 

i know youre butthurt over the SEC being so good but arkansas and a bunch of teams from the SEC are just really that good.

No chance Arkansas would play for the Big Ten championship this year. Minnesota and Wisconsin are playing a "win you're in, lose you're out" game. Do you think Arkansas would beat them and Nebraska, where a Heisman Trophy candidate is the running back?

Arkansas had legitimately the most difficult conference schedule of any team in college football this year.  They played Alabama, Auburn, Miss St, Ole Miss, LSU, Georgia, Mizzou, and Texas A&M.  Sure some of those teams are inconsistent or have spotty QB play at times but they are all super talented and all of those teams will play in bowl games.  There isnt one gimme in that schedule.  I bet there isnt one team in the country that would go undefeated against that.  Not one.  In fact, I'm not sure anybody could go through that without losing at least two games.  Its just an unfortunately bad luck of the draw for the Hogs.

 

Who had something harder?  Colorado may have an argument... but then again they played Cal and Oregon St.  UCLA's was tough but they had Cal and Colorado on the schedule.  There just isnt anybody with a more difficult conference schedule.

Probably depends on who Arkansas is replacing in the Big10 West.  Are they replacing Wisconsin?  Or are they replacing Purdue?  Hogs' QB play is too inconsistent with Brandon Allen to think they'd roll through the Big10 West.  But I bet they'd finish no worse than 3rd.

Yes, I do. They're just as good as Ohio state.

Everyone just wants to discredit the sec because it makes them feel better about their programs from other conferences.
