The Sun Belt is the ONLY conference with no bowl game against a P5 conference this bowl season. Eastern Michigan and Louisiana Tech are playing an ACC school. Let that sink in.

I have thoroughly enjoyed witnessing the Arkansas fan base implode. Complete desperation mode in Fayetteville right now. There is always an SEC or B1G bottom-dwelling fanbase freaking out this time of year due to their over-inflated sense of self-importance and refusal to accept that fact that ever...

“N511HS is enroute from North Wilkesboro to Columbia MO. Interesting route to NC (via Evansville, IN). Was on ground from 4:40 PM to 10 PM.“ Posted on Arkansas message board. Mizzou could be in the mix. https://www.radarbox24.com/data/airports/KUKF you can track flights here as well as other flight...

I have my own feelings on this but I don’t want to speculate. Feel free to interpret this how you will. https://twitter.com/katvkyle/status/1203507904277622784 Satterfield used to say the same thing. "I owe it to my family to hear them out". It isn't a lie and it doesn't confirm interest you're tal...

https://youtu.be/csuNqfuucnw Midway through this, Ethan Joyce asks him directly about Arkansas. That response had one leg firmly on each side of the fence. Basically, he doesnt have an offer yet but he gone when he gets it. I heard it as ..... He doesn't have an offer yet but is absolutely gonna ta...

I thought I read somewhere that the SBC will be ending its tie in w/ Arizona and switching to Myrtle Beach/ESPN Bowl Pool. If thats true, what would be the harm in sending App to Belk, and sending the other 4 teams to the 4 bowls we will still have next year and leaving Arizona to pick up a MAC scho...

One question I wonder is, how has Doug Gillin not been on anyone's radar? I think he is the best AD in the country.... This thought, far more than any coach, is what scares me more for the state of App athletics than any other. I had a business class at App taught by a first year professor who had ...

I said it when Satt left and it will be true when Drink leaves (whenever that is). At our level, we want the rich schools to poach our coaches. And we want it to be an ever 2-3 year thing. It means we win. My wife's school, VCU, has replaced their men's basketball coach on average every 3 years in t...

So the Arkansas AD flew to Boone (Drinkwitz) then Boca (Kiffin) then New Orleans (Fritz?) then to Terrell TX (outside Dallas, maybe the SMU guy?) and last to Idaho (Leach). My money is on Kiffin, or maybe he keeps striking out.

I consider Marshall the best football rivalry we've had in my time. WCU died a pretty quick death by the early 90s , on our side , not theirs certainly. Southern fielded the role by default.Looking ahead to something bigger and better , hopefully in the not to distant future. I agree and I still ha...

Is it super geeky of me that my first thought when seeing the thread title was to think "Hey, Odysseus was from Ithaca not Troy."

None the less, App State by 24.

Great post. Though I hate to pick a few nits, i'm going to anyway. I know you did not intend to imply it all started 15 years, but we should not lose sight of the tradition that has been built in Boone over all 90 years of football at App. You get to #26 all time in winning percentage by winning dec...

They've got us at #15 ahead of Cincy, Memphis, SMU, and Boise St. Would be nice if the committee used their same ranking philosophy... What is the philosophy? Didn't see one here. The only philosphy I see here is the one that says App is simply better than Cincinnati, Memphis, SMU, and Boise. And t...

La Tech losing last night prevents them from leap-frogging us. They now have 2 losses with no signature wins. Hopefully, today will be another big day for us.

We want New Mexico, USF, Houston, and Notre Dame to win today.

If the AAC championship game is Memphis and Cincinnati (as I think likely), they will be playing in back to back weeks. We need them to split that series. Regular season loser needs to win a week later in the championship.

Best case scenario: Sun Belt fills bowl tie-ins, SEC does not, App wins the conference with Louisiana in second, Louisiana Tech agrees to play in New Orleans. NOLA Committee would likely consider a substitution in this case. Just because there is no process in place for substitution doesn't mean th...

It's beyond me to understand how Randy Moss has traveled and lived all over the country, yet still sounds like he's straight out of WV. Most people lose at least a slight bit of their accent when they leave an area. I can't be too mad at him for saying Appy State since he played for a former rival....

Get ready and get used to it. We are now at a place where we must follow the coaching carousel every year. Time to get a home and home clause in the buyout section of every new coach's contract. I like this idea. Is this something that other teams do? I doubt it is workable in football but very com...

If I’m a 36 year old coach I get a call from a bottom half SEC west program I may just wait for the next opportunity. Arkansas’s ceiling is 8-9 wins and that will never be enough for their fanbase. If I'm a 36 year old coach, I'm taking a huge guaranteed contract that would set me and my kids up fo...

I don't know if it was a better production value or we had 30k+ people there but that's the loudest I've ever heard App fans be on tv. Having a fanbase who travels well is good for the resume. The production at KBS has always been shitty. It could be the stadium layout too. Maybe once we get the NE...
