Arkansas vs North Alabama

[DRYANKNPULL]

I have prior engagements and hope to catch a minute of this showdown. Bass is charged with starting the next one.

Donald W Reynolds Razorback Stadium
3:15 Central Daylight Time
SEC Network
They are saying 88F at kickoff which almost makes me want to drive up and enjoy an outdoor event in that coolness.
Hogs -40.5. 62.5 total

That's a bunch of points. I hope we win.

"Prior Engagements"; Game 1 of the Silverfield era.

-40.5, take the under.

Bass has the game thread next week against Utah, where we have to go for two.

The only way our football program gets back on a respectable track is for a new coach to have an out of nowhere "they should make a movie about this" type season.

We do that, and the money and recruiting problems get easier, and it builds on itself.

Right now there is still a chance this could be one of those seasons, so at least for a few games I'm going to be optimistic.  

Let's destroy North Alabama, beat Utah, and let ourselves have unreasonable expectations against Georgia.  

[Hogfan58]

I've never been not excited for a football season in my life.

[buff2.0]

This is ass, we should have kept Bobby and hired some NFL players!

Just getting it out of the way for when we only win by 32.

RUN THE BALL!!!

[Son of Spam]

Fuck these refs!

[Barton Fink]

Why are we punting from the 40 on 4th and 3??

Edit: after a timeout

[vegashog]

not a db in sight.

[BASS]

I'm 15 minutes from the stadium and it's 83 already, forecast to hit 99 by 2:00, then a 38% of rain, but still forecast to be 100 at 3:00.

Maybe we get the rain and it cools it off for a bit, but prior to that it's going to be a quite a bit hotter than 88.

Team is about to leave the hotel. Police escort is there in front of the buses.

i want to see what a (supposedly) 225 pound braylon russell looks like. i'd also like to see at least 250 yards rushing today.

Im sorry Tusk but that's a pussy move.   You live outside.  WTF you talking about it's too hot?

He's a Russian bore, 50 degrees Fahrenheit is hot too him.

Ah.  Good point.  

[BASS]

Updated forecast. It's 96 now, will hit 97 or 98, and then they've upped the chance of rain to over 50% between 2 and 3, dropping the temp to 85.
