But, everyone thinks there is this huge talent gap, which there is not, so I have that to my advantage. Perception v. reality is really playing into my decision a lot.
Everyone who thinks there is a huge talent gap are correct. The national rankings of Bama's last four recruiting classes are 5, 1, 1 & 10. Arkansas's last four recruiting classes ranked 49, 16, 36 & 31. Huge difference!!!
Reality is Bama is a battle-hardened known quantity, and Arkansas is a figment of the media's imagination. They are the great Wizard of Oz behind the curtain.
Perception versus reality. Winning versus losing

I forgot the 7+ defensive players Bama had last year that are now playing on Sundays is somehow relevant to this year's Bama's team..
And they are still 3rd in the nation in the Points against category what's your point? They have Five star studs to fill those voids. I didn't hear anything about how many starters returned Arkansas. the same one swho gave up 291 yards and 3 TD's to McElroy. Not to mention Mallet has returned. The same Mallet who only threw 160 yds 1 Td and 1 Int. Why would I think his performance would be any better.

Bama hasn't played anyone good yet this year.. so who cares what Bama's defensive ranks are? PSU moved the ball pretty well in the first half and if it wasn't for some costly TO's, the final score would have been much closer.. and, wow- Bama raped Duke.. didn't picture that..
Hard to compare Mallet's successes or failures of last year's game when 90% of the players he'll face this week didn't face him last year...
You'd also think playing at home would make a little difference.. Hogs were diff. team at home- averaged 40ppg at home during SEC play last year..
Bama's weakness on D is also the Hogs strength on offense.. just something to think about
I mean, really- according to all you homers, why not just give Bama the BCS crown again this year.. or hell- let's just call them what they are ... Dynasty!!!

Man, I couldn't help myself I have to post here, I ususally just like to read what people have to say. So obviously bamastump is a joke and I think you even admitted that so I'm taking a shot at you and clearly my favorite team is Arkansas. My play will be on the Bama money line whatever it is because it will be like me paying for a win if I lose which I will gladly do as this is the biggest game Ark has had in.....yea 45 years?
I have to say that this game is very tough to call and just want to add some insight to what is being said here. The Georgia game was the game we prepared for all preseason long, dont look to much into the first two games as we literally practiced against Georgia schemes both of those weeks. So my point is that we were not overlooking them and that Georgia really is a good defense but has a poor quarterback and without A.J. Green couldn't pull it out.
Why would the GA game be the biggest game of the yeear you were preparing for, Why not the Number 1 ranked team in the nation.
Sounds perfect lets train harder for a non ranked opponent and not give a fuck about a tougher team the following week. And they still barely won the damn game because of Arkansas's week D. Stop trying to call me out u jack ASS! we are going to beat the hell out of u and realistically we will win by at least 14. I will bet as much money on this as you can affor do loose. That goes for any other Arkansas backer here.

As I said before in another thread, Bama is going to crush this Ark team. I am an LSU fan, and I follow the SEC closely, trust me. This game will easily cover 10 pts and I am locked in with my biggest bet since the Ala/Fla SEC championship game last year. Only speaking the truth here. Bama to the bank.

In an unrelated note, QB Ryan Mallet just announced the Hogs are forfeiting claiming "every Bama and non-Arkansas SEC poster doesn't think we have a chance.. so why even play the game. They are clearly more talented on paper- just seems like the right thing to do."

I would bet everything I have in my account- 25 units or more- that you are not even close to being a doctor in any field. I have read three threads and that is plenty of information. Doctors can spell simple words and write in complete sentences, even if they are in a rush. The reason they can do that is because they have above average intellectual functioning.
No doctor..says he's 21-25 an a student!
Bet with your wallet,not your heart

It actually moved to 7- last night for a little bit... but yeah the public is pounding Bama...
Bottom line is that Bama IS the better team... however it's tough to win on the road in the SEC no matter where you play... Arkansas's passing game will have success against Bama's young secondary... With that being said Arkansas won't stop Bama's ground game which will open up the passing game for McElroy... There will be a lot of points in this game... I think Arkansas will cover the spread at home, but Bama gets the win
Remember.... Bama has Florida on deck
