UA plays another team underrated in preseason, Nebraska, in Dallas. Bobby Petrino's offense shreds the "blackshirt defense" for an impressive win. Casey Dick and London Crawford both have an exceptional year and the Razorbacks surprise the so-called "experts" [except HogBaller] with a top 20 ranking, setting the table for a BCS run in 2009.

Speculation is awesome! Not sure where we'll end up, but if players could stay healthy, I wish they could play 12 months a year. Go Hogs, Go Petrino, Go Bowling, go Hog Future!

Too True. My pick yesterday was half tongue in cheek. Linebackers, recievers, another tailback, we have too many question marks to know where we might end up. Alabama has some question marks to go with a good senior QB and a tough schedule. LSU and Auburn both have talented teams with new QBs, a big ? in the SEC. Coaching wise, I'm not sure who I would pick over Petrino. Saban sports a better resume. It certainly wouldn't be Miles. Tommy gets less credit for doing more than anybody but, I wouldn't want him. On the hog fan side, two good lines are only waiting for some skill players. Casey and MS have been waiting patiently to show their stuff. Petrino is just the guy to build the offense to fit them. If you have a couple of future All-SEC players hidden in that freshman class, flying under the radar, we could slip into the Cotton or the Chick-Fil-a. Go Gonzo. Too True.

I think 7-5 will be the very best this team will produce this year. I think you other guys are definately a little more than optimistic. With Nutt, this team probably would be looking at 3 wins, possibly 4 wins tops, but with Petrino you maximize all your talent you have on the field. I heard Wally Hall ranking the SEC's coaches from top to bottom the other day, and incredibly he had Nutt ranked 3rd and Petrino dead last, for the simple reasoning that Petrino hasn't coached a game yet. Wally?? ---Hello?? He may not have coached a game in this league yet, but he has made a name for himself as a football coach you nit-wit! Spurrier and Saban are the only 2 coaches in this league that's coached in the NFL, and the only thing they've accomplished that Petrino hasn't in win a NC. In '06, Petrino led Louisville to a #3 ranking, before losing to Cinncinatti, and a very under-rated defense at the end of the year. They went on to win thier bowl game, and finish in the top 10. (7th, I think) Has Nutt ever done that? Petrino did it in 4 years at a basketball school, not even known for it's non-existent football program, and Nutt couldn't do it at a school like the UofA in 10 years. Do the math Wally!!!
