Win This Week, Rest Up Next Week

 


These past couple of games have been hard ones to get over.  We started out as 4-0 and now we are 4-3.  It's good that we have an easy opponent to play this week and then a bye week.  This is a great opportunity for us to gain some confidence back and rest up.  After this game, the Razorbacks would play 8 straight games without a bye week.  Going so long without a bye week could be a reason why we haven't played as well the past few games.  Getting this rest will definitely help out the rest of the season for us.  As of now, I think we could go 7-5 or 8-4 at best to finish the regular season.  Mississippi State and Missouri seem winnable games.  Alabama doesn't seem likely but LSU seems 50/50 to me because they are sometimes good and sometimes not.  Let's just get this easy win this week and rest well during the bye week and hopefully we can have a good end to the regular season.

Last week I went 10-6 (62.5%) for my College Football predictions (Total: 93-34 (73.2%)) and 9-4 (69.2%) for NFL predictions (Total: 52-36 (59.1%)).  It seems that I've been getting my NFL predictions better than College Football predictions recently. Now let's do this week's predictions!

Auburn vs. Arkansas: Hope Officiating Is Good

 


Ohhh boy I really want us to win this week.  Last week was not good for my blood pressure.  I do agree with going for the 2-point conversion at the end last week, but I would've gone with a different play.  Anyways, we still look competitive and this week will be some sweet revenge against Auburn last year.  Considering that last year they won by a field goal after their QB Bo Nix "spiked" the football backwards and wasn't called a fumble or the play was already dead.  A major officiating error costed the game at the end and I want us to pummel Auburn at home this year.  

Last week I went 10-5 (66.7%) for my College Football predictions (Total: 83-28 (74.8%)) and 12-3 (80%) for NFL predictions (Total: 43-32 (57.3%)).  Wow that is rare that I have a higher prediction percentage for the NFL last week compared to College Football. Now let's do this week's predictions!

Arkansas vs. Ole Miss: Please Turn the Jukebox Back On

 


Oh man, last week was not pretty at all for us.  It looks like Georgia and Alabama really are on another league of their own.  But, if we somehow get to 10-2 on the season with our only losses against Georgia and Alabama, I would be so happy still.  That would bring me back to 2011 when our only losses were against Alabama and LSU, and they both played against each other in the National Championship.  I'm just saying that if our only losses are literally against the best of the best, don't feel too bad about it.  But, we play Ole Miss today and I really want us to beat them.  We embarrassed them last year and I would like to do it again this year.  We pretty much owned the state of Texas after beating Texas and Texas A&M.  I would like us to also own the state of Mississippi starting with Ole Miss and then Mississippi State later.  Let's go!!!!

Last week I went 11-8 (57.9%) for my College Football predictions (Total: 73-23 (76%)) and 7-8 (46.7%) for NFL predictions (Total: 31-29 (51.7%)).  Now let's do this week's predictions!

Arkansas vs. Georgia: Hawgs vs. Dawgs


 It is now for the Hogs to really prove themselves to be among the best this season.  Of course we were able to be a ranked Texas and Texas A&M.  But this is Georgia who can compete with Alabama.  These Hogs have been impressive so far and they might have a chance.  But it is still a big "if" because it is against Georgia on their home turf.  If we win, we will be 5-0 for the first time since 1998!  My preseason predictions had me thinking that Arkansas would go 7-5 this year.  So far, it looks like Arkansas could probably go 9-3 or 10-2.  I like to be wrong if it is a great thing.

Last week I went 16-4 (80%) for my College Football predictions (Total: 62-15 (80.5%)) and 8-7 (53.3%) for NFL predictions (Total: 24-21 (53.3%)).  Now let's do this week's predictions!

Texas A&M vs. Arkansas: Please Win This One!

 


We are finally at the Southwest Classic.  It has been far too long since we have beaten Texas A&M.  The last time that we won was in 2011.  Remember Tyler Wilson, Bobby Petrino, and Knile Davis?  Just some players and the head coach from that time.  If these names sound old to you, then it really has been far too long.  I can understand this against Alabama, but we've had too many close games with Texas A&M for this to be ok.  We've already beaten Texas this year and adding Texas A&M to old Southwest Conference rivals on the win list would be so good.

Last week I went 17-4 (81%) for my College Football predictions (Total: 46-11 (80.7%)) and 8-7 (53.3%) for NFL predictions (Total: 16-14 (53.3%)).  Now let's do this week's predictions!

Last week's win against Texas was so great to see.  It made me so happy and I just really hope that Arkansas takes care of business for this week.  We are a high favorite against Georgia Southern.  I trust that Sam Pittman will keep his team humble and keep rolling with the strong punches.

Texas vs. Arkansas: Long Time Rivals

 


It is time for the showdown between Texas and Arkansas!  Since Arkansas has been in the SEC my whole life, I have not seen a lot of games involving Texas and Arkansas because of them being in different conferences.  I've been told about the old rivalry from when both teams were in the Southwest Conference and how it really got heated.  I am excited to finally watch a game between them in what has felt a really long time.

Last week I went 12-3 (80%) on my College Football predictions.  This week starts the NFL season which means those will be included now.
