Can'tucky

Say what?!!!!  A road win?  We'll take it.  Thank God today that you're not an Auburn fan.  We only thought WE had a long season.  And speaking of saying thanks, take the time to bless the wonderful meal you can get at Grubs Uptown when you come up The Hill this weekend.  I dare ya to try the Philly Burger.....dare ya.  And don't forget, kids eat FREE!

Arkansas dominated on the Playstation this week in a 40-7 route.  Knile Davis went WILD scoring 3 times and rushing for over 200 yards.  Don't we miss that Knile?  We need one more victory on the field before we go back to the full write up.  This should be the week it happens.  So, back to the Mailbag.

"Do you think the Hogs can put a win streak together and actually be competitive for the rest of the season?"  Good question.  The schedule definitely allows for a few wins now that the Hogs have shown we can beat terrible teams.  Kentucky is definitely a terrible team but I'm afraid the streak may stop there.  Bad as I hate to say it, Ole Mrs will be a "competitive" game. 

"What's up with Chris Smith?  Why can't we ever get these little things taken care of off the field?"  He failed to pay a fine and thus was arrested for failure to appear.  It happens at every school in the country.  The coaches can't baby sit them all the time.  What's crazy to me about this is how Paul Haynes and the defense haven't been arrested for failure to appear since the A&M game. 



So off the win the Hogs welcome JOKE Phillips and the Can'tucky Mildcats.  Note they'll be playing their 3rd string QB as well.  I'm not so sure that Kentucky isn't the worst team in the country.  They'd give Colorado a fighting chance.  Regardless, they come to town hungry for a win and they've won here in the past.  With our coaching staff resembling Hootie as much as they do, Kentucky has a chance to win the game......until you realize how much Phillips resembles Haynes.



For Arkansas, tomorrow is a chance to build on a win.  A chance to bring up the spirits a little more and keep fighting towards the goal of.......Shreveport, I guess.  It's just a chance to get a good win and get some YOUNG defenders experience for the future.  Much like the Playstation, I expect Knile to find a groove tomorrow.  Interesting note that Wilson, Davis, Gragg and Hamilton have only all been on the field together for a total of 3 quarters this year.  Arkanas won those 3 quarters by a combined score 34-13.  If's and but's.......

Rain is expected and campus is on Fall Break.  I'm expecting a crowd of about 50,000 at best as word is that the student section will be empty.  Tomorrow's ticket may be the hardest sell in decades.  But that doesn't mean you're staying home!  Keep that spirit of the Hog in ya.  Pick yourself up by the bootstraps and let's go cheer'em on!  It's a chance to win at home, so DO YOUR JOB!!!

Arkansas 31

Kentucky 7

Go Hogs!
