Razorback Football

[Thin Red Swine]

It's amazing to read this thread and it's "I cried", "my dad cried", "my family cried". I think EVERYONE who watched that game understood what it meant, to both teams and fans. It was just soul-crushing.

Living in Texas, we would try to get the games on the car radio. Sometimes we could, sometimes we couldn't. Many times we'd drive around the neighborhood because driving would make the signal come in better. At least when we'd play Texas teams, if we didn't go to the games, they would be on the radio. Non-conference games were a bitch to get on the radio. Franks show was on some weird channel at like 11pm and there wasn't DVR/VCR back then, so we had to stay up to watch it. It was must-see TV.   

I cried AND shit my pants.



To be fair, I was less than three months old.

you are exactly right on all counts;  loved Bud Campbell and read Orville Henry every day from a fairly young age

It was so special looking back. The entire state lived and breathed Razorbacks.  Frank made us truly believe the state could compete. I feel sorry for those fans who never knew the program when it was a national contender and then we added Sutton and we all learned basketball.  Goddamn it was a great thing.

If you knew nothing about the Hogs or this place coming into this thread, you would know two things coming out of it. 1. Being a Razorback fan is painful. 2. There's gonna be a lot of woopig funerals in the next 10 years or so. What's the avg age of this place, 75?

It's not the age as much as the miles.

You're right. I confused that stat with number of tackles.

You guys will rue the day Huddy Island leaves!

[Gambler]

You're right. I confused that stat with number of missed tackles.

Infinity is not a number.

I'm not nearly that old.  But "nearly" is a relative term.

So, not to start a football 2024 thread, the AD is release our schedule on Twitter with piglets. Talk about weak.

Also, we don't play in Fayetteville until the third week. The first game against UAPB is in Little Rock. SMH.

Good grief. This has gone on forever.

Nope.

Two bye weeks though. The Texass one as Maxwell from Gieco, so I am ok with that.

Don't want to make Bama play Texas three years in a row or possibly in the championships. That would be cruel.
