I feel ya, Brad. I think I am the ONLY Arkansas fan on the board.

OLS · 10-05-2010, 09:20 AM

MAN, I was pulling for the Hogs when they played Bama. I have a standard line, I am a Bama
fan as long as the do not play LSU. But I had to move off of my position when the Hogs
were giving them all they wanted. What happened in the second half is anybody's guess,
but like I said, Nick Saban is the king of second half adjustments. You guys never had a chance.

But being in Memphis, you tend to sway a little towards Arkansas in a fairly neutral context.
Against LSU though, look out. And for the second year in a row, I am going to be working
the day of the big showdown. Why anyone would hold a game in the early afternoon is
beyond me.

I ALWAYS take the the day off for the LSU game. Last year I had to patch my walls from all of the bottles I threw as Mallett overthrew receiver after receiver and Tejada missed FG after FG after FG. This year... I won't have that problem. This year I'll be patching holes from the furniture thrown in riotous celebration after we stop a new mudhole in LSU.

Lester "Trucker Hat" Miles' luck is bound to run out by Nov 28th.

Well, this year just make sure to watch my karting webcast at www.onikc.com on
Saturday night after the game. That's what I will be doing. It will be free til 5 then PPV only,
but all day and night Friday it is still free. One kart driver in the Senior Pro class will win
$20,000 Saturday night. Should be a brawl. The other races are all either 5000 or 1000 to win.

Interesting factoids from the Memphis Commercial Appeal:

Georgia and Tennessee have six SEC championship game appearances between them
since 2001, but will play Saturday with losing records for the first time since 1906....ouch

Alabama begins a stretch on Saturday at South Carolina of playing six consecutive SEC games
against teams that enjoy a bye week before meeting the Crimson Tide. "I think everybody
should have an open date before they play Alabama, because they're so good," joked Ole Miss
coach Houston Nutt, whose team is off this week before playing at Alabama on Oct. 16

So for those keeping track at home, Michael and i have a bet for the UF-LSU game this weekend.
God only knows how THAT one's gonna go. But I think he's an LSU fan, so.....

OLS · 10-08-2010, 10:41 AM

Oh there is no confusion. I am not a BAMA FAN, I just don't hate them like most people.
If there is no football on except Bama, I pull for Bama. If Bama is ahead of LSU in the
standings, I am obviously not a Bama fan. I grew up a Tulane fan, which means I hated
LSU. So my team that was on TV all the time was Bama. I got behind them as a 7 year
old kid, and still have pent up affinity. Confusing, I know, but the point is, if Bama
lost this week, it would not hurt my feelings, i.e. the worst 5-0 team in the SEC would
REALLY catch a nice break, lol. If you are still confused, I think my new avatar says it all.

Makes a little more sense. And that avatar is hilarious

Brantley's hurt but did practice Tuesday. Demps held out of practice!!!

Hahaha, this is clever.

Hard to know what to call an upset in this one. Who has to win in order for it to be an upset?
Never thought ther'd be a tough call on that subject, lol.

Gonna be weird seeing the outcome of UA at USC. The media, in order to have something to jibber-
jabber on endlessly, has set up the big upset. Can't see that happening. It is of course, a possibility,
but so is a comet hitting Paramus. Not gonna bother me if UA gets knocked off. I know it WOULD
bother a lot of other folks. I could use the space, to tell you the truth. It's tough being a fan of
the worst 5-0 team in SEC football, maybe NCAA football.
Yes, it's true, I am now a florida fan.........

ahahahahahahahaha....I kid.

OLS · 10-08-2010, 05:28 PM

I also think I am like Tom with his Gator fetish. Tom is pure northern, and has no real rational reason to like the
Gators. same with me and Alabama. But I am really a sucker for Power, Success and Finesse and Speed in a
football team. Love em or hate em, The Tide RIGHT NOW are a thing of beauty. There is so much also-ran
stuff on the air during football season, and to watch Alabama is just thrilling. They are really getting it done.

Ouch...The Sage of memphis, hehe. bama got STANKED...ouch. Poor basterds, I had their back, but pee-yuu.

Looks like the Bulldogs might get their first SEC win

BAMA Is Shooting Themselves In The Foot 1st Half Against SC.

Hopefully Nick Will Straighten Them Out For The 2nd Half.

Pass · 10-09-2010, 04:12 PM

WTH is going on with Arkansas and these penalties?? Killin us. Should be like 35 - 7 right now....

Powers · 10-09-2010, 04:14 PM

The chickens and the ole ball coach are lookin' pretty good! USC has to at least score 10 pts in the second half to pull it out

Powers · 10-09-2010, 04:32 PM

Garcia intentionally getting a safety has to be one of the dumbest quarterback plays ever

Pass · 10-09-2010, 07:10 PM

So Bama got bumped by SC. Arkansas squeaked by. Things are going to be brutal in the West this year. Arkansas needs to get their offense's collective minds right or we'll wind up in a bad position. TAMU all but handed us a blow out and we barely made it by.... mostly on our D. Bama needs to shake this loss off and learn from their mistakes. From the looks of the stats (I didn't watch it as I was watching the Ark game) it looks like SC studied the Ark v Bama game and repeated our successes while keeping their foot on the gas. They just handed Auburn and LSU the keys to defeating Bama. So Bama needs to hit the ground running and fix the leaks.

Arkansas needs to get their offense back on point and run the table. This is going to be a brutal and frustrating season methinks.

I really don't like that those stinkin' Buckeyes will be #1 and the SEC might be out of the running for the National Championship. I would truly hate to see Boise v Ohio.... That would just plain suck.
