Boy are we low on RB's. What is the deal? I know Coker is hurt...but I'm sorry... Foster isn't hitting the holes like he should. Did you see the way LSU attacked the line of scrimmage? We pitter patter to the line looking for the 80 yard run. They need to ram that darn ball down the linemans back if he isn't blocking. Do something instead of your favorite Michael Jackson dance...for goodness sakes! Our running game is absolutely pathetic! No RB's and no "run"blocking O-line, and injuries caught up to us tonight!

Keep in mind that Coker is a freshman, and Foster and Hardesty are sophomores.

I can see after the Vols having to play national powers like Air Force, 4-4 (which you should have lost), Marshall, 5-4, and Memphis, 1-8, you might be offended by the Razorbacks's non-conference schedule.

Heck, at least Ole Miss and Vandy were conference games. We didn't have a choice there, did we?

Seriously though. I do like stats. They're kind of fun to throw around. But really, Tennessee has had just as much opportunity to pad their stats against lesser opponents as Arkansas has.

Please come with a better aurgument. I never said Tennesee isn't a great team. That would be foolish, wouldn't it? I only gave those stats as a comparison to a common opponent. I certainly meant no disrespect.

Tennesee is a very impressive football team.

If you're going to boast around stats, I'm going to tear them down, fair enough? And you can brag about stats but blow off any qualification of them? Please. Cut at the data as you will, but don't expect to lob some statistical mumbo jumbo out there and not have anyone peel the onion.

And for the record, we've played some mediocre non conference teams, but the hogs, other than USC, have played complete crap.

Hey General. We're all good. That's what stats are for as far as I'm concerned - fun to play with.

But your second statement may upset some Auburn fans.

Man, you guys get personal over here! Get that chip of your shoulder, General, and have some fun! :peace2:

Not everyone gets personal but some can be hardheaded at times (not refering to anyone specific).

Also, I think General was refering to your OOC schedule when he said "other than USC". :thumbsup:

Good luck Saturday.

Do you think Foster could play FB when Coker is at TB? It might help Foster learn to hit the hole and be less tentative. I wonder if he is still hurt more than they will admit because he hasn't run like he did last year.

I love stats, too! Here are some:

The pass offense rankings for Arkansas's D 1-A opponents -

Southern Cal #17
S. Carolina #38
Alabama #52
Auburn #60
ULM #65
Vanderbilt #73
Utah State #107
Mississippi #110

Tennessee's pass offense is ranked #12.

The run defense rankings for Arkansas's D-1A opponents -

Southern Cal #14
Alabama #31
Auburn #41
S. Carolina #81
Vanderbilt #89
Mississippi #98
ULM #106
Utah State #107

Tennessee's run D is ranked #61.

I think the Hogs will STILL run all over us, but we'll fare better than USC East and Auburn, IMO.

The Hogs pass D is going to be shredded. Pass vs. Run. Should be fun.

I never said that our OOC schedule was tougher than yours. But don't say we haven't played anyone when you haven't either.

I don't think you understand. ULM and Utah State are two of the 10 worst teams in the country.

Memphis is one of the worst 20.
