Finally Football!!

Welcome back to the Playstation Prediction!  We've had several changes this year, both on and off the field, but it's finally football time!  Our changes off the field here at the prediction include the music portion of the page (you must now click to play each week) and most importantly a new and improved sponsorship!!  Rick Riley said last year that Arkansas would win the National Championship and that the best bar in America would come unhinged when it happened.  There's a better bar than where we pregame???  Yes, there is.  Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, please give a Hog Call welcome to Grub's Bar and Grille!!!!!

 
 
 
As for the on field changes.......where do we start?  How bout with a little music.  Push play, you'll be glad you did.
 

  

Yes, Jen and Bob went out on the Hog
To catch a Sunday breeze
Jen reached around
To grab Bob's knob
And they both ended up in the trees
                      
 
 
And as our coach skid into a roadside ditch, so did the hopes and dreams of a National Championship. Are you kidding me???!!!!  Can we please hire a coach that doesn't have a texting plan on his phone! 
 
The ONLY way to fix the problem:  A Grub's chicken strip basket, hire John L. Smith, and play some Playstation!!
 
Arkansas wins the toss and chooses to defer as tropical depression Isaac rains down on DWRRS.  The new look Paul Haynes defense starts the year off with a 3 and out and the Hogs are set to take the field with an explosive offense.  Having not been taken to the ground all camp, the crowd sits on pins and needles as Knile Davis takes his first carry for 12 yards and then limps badly to the sideline.  Yes, his first carry and already a high ankle sprain.  Wilson would hit Hamilton on the next play followed by 3 consecutive Dennis Johnson runs and the Hogs strike paydirt for the only score of the first quarter.  7-0 Hogs
 
Davis returns in the middle of the second quarter and carries twice for a total of 20 yards, but the pain is too great and he heads to the sidelines for the remainder of the game.  The Hogs would need only 8 plays to go 60 yards as Johnson scored TD number 2.  14-0 Hogs.
 
Arkansas' defense would continue to dominate as Tevin Mitchell picks off a pass, but two plays later, Tyler Wilson and Ronnie Wingo fumble an exchange that Jacksonville St returns to the 10 yard line.  The Hog D shows their tusks again and holds St to a field goal.  14-3
 
Wilson would need only 5 plays in a 2 minute drill to march the Hogs down the field, capping a 73 yard drive to new WR Brandon Mitchell.  21-3 Hogs at the half.
 
The second half becomes all Hogs as even the scrubs have their way.  Nate Holmes electrifies the small crowd that sticks out the weather and the Hogs put on a route 48-3.
 
So, with open arms the Razorback Nation welcomes back Jack Crowe and the Jacksonville St Gamecocks.  The warm welcome isn't due to the fact that Crowe left Arkansas at it's lowest point, he's welcome back because of the somewhat of an upset he pulled over Hootie and Ole Mrs in 2010.  So, welcome back Jack!
 
Through the rollercoaster/motorcycle ride of an offseason, this Hog team has formed a bond like no other team in Arkansas history.  A new defensive staff was established just before the Cotton Bowl, only to be unsure if they could stick around after spring ball.  Recruits wavered on their commitments, but then stuck it out and came to campus.  And John L. Smith got his piss hot and saw an opportunity to come back and be a part of what could be a Cinderella story.  So the staff remained in tact, and Tyler Wilson led summer workouts refusing to let the ship sink.  Now, all eyes are on the Hogs to see if they can overcome the misfortunes along with Bama, LSU and the rest of the SEC.
 
And it all starts tomorrow with a visit from Jacksonville St.  A cupcake so tasty that the Hogs will be thinking www.blisscupcakecafe.com is on the field.  Expect to see several youngsters get time tomorrow including, but not limited to, Brandon Allen, Otha Peters, JaMichael Winston, Nate Holmes, and Mekale McKay.
 
Hopefully the rain will clear by tailgate time and you can come join us at the Razorback Road Rendezvous, where we like our fans on the grass and our coaches on the road!  Come Ring the Bell and get that rub on Frank!  It's football time!!
