THE REAL PROBLEM WITH HOGS BASKETBALL

 I posted another article about the basketball program and after 6 games I am still not impressed.  The 6-0 start and top 5 recruiting class has made Arkansas fans delusional.  But, that's how fans are.  Some fans believe if you are not bragging about the program or always thinking positive you can't be a fan.  Newsflash, it's okay to tell it like it is and still be a fan.   The real problem with the Hogs??  The inside game or rather the lack of is going to be a big problem for them.  Yes, folks that's the same problem they had last year.  Did anyone watch them play against UCA?  They got out rebounded by a team that won't come close to winning their own conference.  You heard me right.  Out rebounded by a Southland Conference team. The biggest problem last year was lack of size.  And once again it's the same problem again this year.   There are many fans that are so excited and actually believe that Muss is...

Brandon Allen to replace injured Joe Burrow at QB for Cincinnati Bengals

Image
  CINCINNATI --   Bengals   quarterback   Brandon Allen   will take over for the injured   Joe Burrow   as the team's starter, a source confirmed to ESPN on Wednesday. Allen, who has spent the entire season on the practice squad, will be making his fourth career NFL start on Sunday against the  New York Giants . The other three starts came with the  Denver Broncos  last season.A sixth-round pick in the 2016 draft, Allen was picked up by the Bengals during training camp as a contingency option because of COVID-19. He was among the team's final preseason cuts and was added to the practice squad. NFL Network first reported that Allen would start for the Bengals. EDITOR'S PICKS What Joe Burrow's injury means for the Bengals' rebuild Projected 2021 NFL draft order: It's Jets vs. Jaguars for the No. 1 pick After the Bengals selected Burrow with the top overall pick in the 2020 draft, they opted not to add another quarterback to the 53-man rost...

Hog basketball

 I had a chance to see the Red and White game.  The biggest problem Arkansas has had is the lack of size and inside presence (rebounding and block shots).  There is no question Arkansas has shooter....allot of them.  But, when shooters are not hitting their shots what do you do?  You post up and force teams to the middle to open the outside up.  Who on Arkansas is going to help this year?  Well, let's look at the potential list of inside men. 1.   Abayomi Iyiola 6'9'' F.  What you like about him:  Has long arms.  Concerns:  He needs work.  Not very fast going down the court.  Not great at posting up.  Could develop into a shot blocker but that will take some time.  Very weak with the ball and bring it down low too much making it easy for smaller guys to steal the ball. 2.  Emeka Obukwelu 6'8'' F.  What you like about him:  Very strong young man with great work ethic.  Loves to go g...

Gameday vs Florida

  Florida vs. Arkansas odds, line: 2020 college football picks, predictions from expert on 14-2 run The  Florida Gators  will attempt to remain the front-runner in the SEC East race Saturday when they host the improving  Arkansas Razorbacks  in an SEC showdown. The No. 6-ranked Gators (4-1) notched a massive victory last week when they topped fifth-ranked  Georgia  44-28. It was their first win over the rival Bulldogs in four years. They will need to be careful to avoid a letdown against the Razorbacks (3-3), who are arguably one of the most improved programs in the country. They won just two games last season and went winless in SEC play but have been consistently competitive this year. They are coming off a 24-13 home victory over  Tennessee  last week.  Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. ET from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. The Gators are 17-point favorites and the over-under for total points scored is 60 in the latest Florida vs. Arkansas odd...

Gameday vs Tennessee

  Arkansas vs. Tennessee How to watch Arkansas vs. Tennessee football game Who's Playing Tennessee @ Arkansas Current Records: Tennessee 2-3; Arkansas 2-3 What to Know The Tennessee Volunteers have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. The Volunteers and the Arkansas Razorbacks will face off in an SEC battle at 7:30 p.m. ET Saturday at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Tennessee is limping into the game on a three-game losing streak. The oddsmakers predicted a rough matchup for Tennessee two weeks ago, and boy were they were right. They ended up on the wrong side of a painful 48-17 walloping at the Alabama Crimson Tide's hands. Tennessee was down 42-17 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. The losing side was boosted by QB  Jarrett Guarantano , who passed for two TDs and 162 yards on 24 attempts. Meanwhile, Arkansas might have drawn first blood against the Texas A&M Aggies last week, but it was A&M who g...

 #7 A&M is heavy favorite per ESPN, but a win would be a major statement for Sam Pittman and Hogs https://www.espn.com/college-football/game?gameId=401237120 Finally a 6:30PM game, will we show up?

Gameday Live vs Ole Miss

Take a look at these 10 poll questions for Saturday's game between the Arkansa Razorbacks (1-2 SEC) and the Ole Miss Rebels (1-2 SEC) in Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Ole Miss is coming off an impressive offensive showing against the Alabama Crimson Tide, though it was still a 63-48 loss. Arkansas was robbed by referee error on the road at Auburn, 30-28. Will Ole Miss shore up their disappointing defense while maintaining their firepower on offense? Can Arkansas move on from officials costing them a game and not let it impact them twice? The Razorbacks aren't getting much respect for a team that should be 2-1 right now with back-to-back road wins over nationally ranked opponents and are 3-point underdogs in this one. There is also an underlying storyline in this one as new Ole Miss coach  Lane Kiffin  was believed to have been in the driver's seat for the vacant Arkansas job. The Razorbacks went with  Sam Pittman , obviously. Ole Miss performed much better than Ar...

The Razorbacks (1-1, 1-1 SEC) will look to pull off another upset on Saturday when they travel to Alabama to face No. 13 Auburn (1-1, 1-1). The Razorbacks' losing streak in conference games ended at 20 with a 21-14 victory over then-No. 16 Mississippi State. The Tigers are coming off a 27-6 loss to Georgia that dropped them six places in the Top 25. First-year Arkansas coach Sam Pittman isn't concerned about his team getting refocused after ending their skid. "I don't think it's going to be a problem," he said Monday. "I'm going to show them this afternoon why we won. We always have a good, bad and ugly video. ... We'll put (the previous) gam...

Bengals waive Brandon Allen

  Brandon Allen won’t be backing up   Joe Burrow   in Cincinnati this season. Tom Pelissero of NFL Media  reports that  Allen is hitting the waiver wire on Saturday.  Ryan Finley  and Jake Dolegala were the other quarterbacks behind the first overall pick in Bengals camp this summer. Allen signed with the Bengals on August 1 after spending last season with the Broncos. He made three starts after  Joe Flacco ‘s season-ending injury and went 39-of-84 for 515 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in those outings. Allen was a Jaguars sixth-round pick in 2016 and also spent time wit

  The PAC 12, the BIG 10 are not playing this year out of the POWER conferences.  As I have been saying for years we should leave student out of student athlete.  It's all about the money.  Why would any school risk playing sports when there is still a pandemic situation going on?  It's dumb.  I called a game on Friday, they have certain rules that spread out the athletes on the sideline.  WHAT?  The dumbest thing I have ever heard.  So, while they are spread out on the sideline they are face to face with the other team on the field.  It presents a HUGE problem.  You don't know the exposure of the other athletes that you are playing against.  Furthermore, the risks it has for that players family.  Example:  Let's say an athlete gets the virus and not knows he really has it, then he gives it to another player on another team, that player then goes  home and gives it to his sibling who in turn gives it to Gran...
