1) My first time to NW Arkansas. Beautiful place. I didn't see the rolling hills on the way in because it was dark, but on our way out yesterday, I found myself wanting to come back and do some sort of family trip. Will probably try to talk my wife into taking our kids to Silver Dollar City and go through there for a few nights.

2) Arkansas facilities are great. Campus is nice. I see the appeal for a lot of out-of-state kids and understand why they've also seen an enrollment jump.

3) Presentation at the game was fine. Not great or where Ole Miss currently is, tbh. Their traditions are a little cheesy, but whose isn't? I could see how that place could get rowdy in a close game though. It was obviously tame. I was impressed by how their fans (minus students) stuck around through halftime. Ole Miss fans were great.

4) People around town were awesome. Maybe it's because they weren't expecting to win or they foresee our commitment larger than theirs, but I had no issues with any of their fans. Most were really kind and welcoming.

5) I'm just going to be real. This doesn't apply to me because I have a pass at Ole Miss, but Arkansas offered a free shuttle on Razorback Road to the stadium that didn't take long at all. I know we have sold out season tickets and whatnot, but you do at some point have to start thinking about the long-term relationship of the customer. Even our in-town shuttles cost over $80 to park at this weekend. Arkansas made it really easy to get onto campus and back. I know it's a bigger town and they're more spread out, but I found it nice not to have to pay to park.

6) Objectively, I left there thinking there's no reason in the NIL era that the Arkansas program should be bottom half of the league. Yurachek is given one of, if not the biggest donor advantages in the country with the Waltons, Stephens, Hunts, and Tysons.

There's no reason that dude should be at a Touchdown Club asking regular Joe Smith from Conway for $100/mo. Frankly, it's a fireable offense if he can't convince a group collectively worth 12 figures to give .0001% of that to field a top 5-10 team. With their facilities and donor dollars, I really left kind of baffled as to why they can't at least make it work to be a consistent 8-9 win team.

Will he be healthy for Saturday?

Section A with seat back. Message if interested.

Both teams don’t get a chance and the winner is picked by a coin toss. I thought they changed the rules to where both teams got the ball after KC did it in the playoffs or Super Bowl.

Ole Miss basketball is back tonight and expectations are high this season! Who’s ready?

Ever read about the 1908 team that the coach spiked the coffee at halftime and got the players drunk and then quit?

If so, when/how do we add another 10k to VHS?

Any comments?

Will we be having the great @tsiskey again this year to guide RG to financial freedom again this year. Step aside, Martin Paloma.

Anyone have experience getting Ubers from Holly Springs to Oxford?

His handles are so good for his size.

I mean it’s like a dream team of players. Really special group that you can tell enjoy playing together. I’d be surprised if they don’t show out this weekend. We need the offense to show up and put pressure on GA to keep up.

And laughed my ass off at the descriptions of the Harris/Walz supporter prank videos. @Neal McCready or @tsiskey will one of you please direct me to these videos? I need this on election day eve.

I didn’t get to watch a lot of the game yesterday (I did listen to Kellum for the first time in years and it was kinda nice).

Looks fairly obvious on Parrish. What about Ivey? Any others?

Just got the email for the Lottery/Ticket Allocation. Rome was awesome in 2023. Anybody been to Bethpage and have suggestions of where to stay? Worried logistics will be a problem getting to and from depending on where you stay.

Anyone got an extra they are trying to give away?

Is Logan Diggs supposed to be healthy at any point?

Of course as soon as we start slinging it all over the yard a Tropical Storm has to ruin it.

Saw this post over the weekend and it's sooooo true. These coaches and players have 7 day contracts with its fans. Some fans have been asking for Lane's resignation. Some wanted to bench Dart because he dressed up and went out for Halloween. Those same "fans" are asking him to now wear that costume on the Walk of Champions. We're a fickle society. What a time to be alive. Just win, baby.

— Good win. I said all week that when Oklahoma doesn’t turn the ball over, they’re a much different team. Went back to Arnold, and he did a really good job.


— Offense did well in passing game, Didn’t run ball well. Oklahoma has been good against the run. Didn’t turn it over, only got sacked once. That was an emphasis. Stepped up without Tre Harris. He’s been very productive. Good job by others stepping up, especially tight ends.


— Very impactful by defensive line with all of the sacks. Dart played a good game. Managed the game well. Pleased with a lot of areas, outside of penalties on defense early and the run game, which was poor.


— OL pass-protected well. Struggled in run game. Oklahoma has been good against the run. Only learned 10 minutes before game Pettus wasn’t playing. Gerquan Scott did some good things, too.


— Asked about Washington State game next season. Kiffin said he doesn’t know much about them, but they’re playing well this year. Repeated that Ole Miss is two plays from being undefeated.


— Said Pettus’ absence was due to an “injury.”


— Both tight ends did some really good things. Without Harris, had a plan in place. Cayden Lee isn’t 100 percent. Plan was in place for both tight ends to have big games,
