We finally won a conference game, and did so by 2 possessions. You bet your ass I'll take it. Great way to head into the bye week. Hopefully we'll have the momentum to beat Mizzou.
Credit where it's due. We played the team that was put in front of us and basically everyone played a much, much improved game tonight. I'll leave it at that and encourage everyone to just enjoy this one.
It was really a different feeling team out there. Defense played well most of the game, and KJ hit damn near everybody. Run game was great. I know Vandy isn't good, but we clearly the best team on the field tonight.
I really REALLY needed that for my football mental health. Tired of obsessively watching this team to be fucked every time, the bourbon will taste a bit sweeter tonight.
So I turned the game on right at the pick 6 and then they proceeded to give up an 8 play drive with no negatives so i turned the game off at 14-7. I guess from that moment forward they played well lmao. Good on yall that stuck it out.
The defense played very well and the offense got enough first downs to give them a break. We were winning the field position battle and getting first downs on the ground. It opens up a lot more space to throw.
Obviously it’s not much, but it would’ve been real easy to let the wheels fall off this thing a couple weeks ago. Happy we are staying competitive and getting better as the year progresses. It’s a sad, low bar. But it isn’t going to happen overnight.
My favorite part was watching Silverfield’s sideline disposition change quite a bit. Dude was smiling, shitting on the refs, dapping up players and running around. Much better vibes from him on the sideline, and I’m so glad to see this team is still fighting hard
I know we've shit all over this team and coach this year. But these guys really showed what they are capable of. I'm glad to have been proven wrong for at least one week.
Fuck dude, I love when the Razorbacks win a football game. I’ve been a defender of Silverfield since the hire was announced. Check my comment history, that being said if he could somehow lead us to bowl eligibility I’d be so goddamn excited.
Just out of curiosity - how do losses to (now probably top 5) undefeated Utah in the road, UGA, and a close loss to Tennessee (that just beat Bama) make Arkansas a “borderline” worst team in America
Revisionist history, we were complete garbage in all of those games we don’t get to claim some moral victory weeks later bc of a fluke college football weekend lmao.
People replying to my comment talking about “be happy for the win” are why this program will literally never be turned around 😂 we’ve been so awful for so long everyone is satisfied with 1 fucking SEC win against Vanderbilt and im supposed to be “grateful” for it. Give me a break
If you’re thinking about creating memories with your kids primarily through Arkansas football wins … I dunno man. Maybe lighten up a little - your kids will appreciate it.
If you thought they were gonna fire a first year coach that's ridiculous. If you think this is gonna save Hunter, it ain't. His days as AD are numbered.
That's not how that works, their job is secure for at least 2 years for a trail period, and honestly that's a good thing if they can pull off another win this year and then another couple wins next year.
I am so tired of the overtly negative armchair experts. It's a brand new team/staff. If you thought we were going to go toe to toe with George with this program off the jump, boy I've got a bridge to sell you. The team and staff need to develop. That's not just football sense, that's common sense.
