Arkansas can put three very good, very fast receivers on the field at once. They all have very good to excellent hands and can all run after the catch.

And we might have the best TE in college this year. One of the top 3 for sure.
id expect osu to have a star on the field most of the game.

cb-torrence #1 6-1 205 this guy is our best cover man. took awhile to catch on as he was playing minor league baseball in the summers. a very good corner, very good ball skills.
cb-chekwa #5 6ft 195 another sr, has good coverage skills. personally he may have regressed since last year. but a good player, another solid tackler.
(youll also see #18 howard who is a sophmore, he has really shown some game at times during they year. hes the first one in if one of those guys are out)
s-gant #8 a fill in for an injured player. he can tackle though i personally think he is susceptible based on his ball skills.
s-johnson 6-3 215 #19 big kid, who can hit. hes young and at times has been inconsistent. he filled in for an injured barnett after a big battle this spring/summer. i really think he improved as the year went along and i would expect continual improvement during bowl practice.
star-hines #7 6-2 218 another big body, hes played a lot at star and in the secondary. this position was originally held by moeller who got hurt. hines can hit, he can tackle though occasionally he seems to get lost when the ball is in the air.


here is our 11/22 offical depth chart.

youll also see the dl we have the four starters goebel will see significant action, hankins some (hes big boy and young), bellamy can be seen in spurts. the reality is we really on play 5 guys in a rotation and situationally play bellamy and hankins.

You didn't lose to the #4 team, you lost to the #18 team at the time, don't try to butter it up. And you didn't even play anyone in the top 10 all year. We beat #5 when they were #5. Not to mention our strength of schedule was ranked 6th nationaly and still managed 10-2. We lost to the defending champs by 4, and to AUB who is going to the title game and beat #5 LSU. You lost to #18 Wisconsin and played no one in the top 10. I'm not gonna make excuses for our perrformance against AUB like you did for your performance against Wisconsin. We simply got beat, yet you neglected to mention that we scored 43 on AUB, the most they allowed all year.

You sound like one of the delusional Scum fans....but we score a lot of points. Dude you got beat by 22 points!!! That is not different than getting beat 25-3...

Yes they can. It's a good thing for us that there's only one ball. :biggrin:

Defensively, our weak spot is the middle of the field. ... We're undersized at LB and have no depth. ... a mobile QB can hurt us because our LBs tend to over run the play and take bad angles.

So you're saying we've got a chance.

Auburn hung Sixty[censored]ingfive on y'all.

to put that in perspective.
last time they scored 65+ on a BCS conference opponent? 1917

if it's any consolation for y'all, Auburn's win will prolly be vacated.
just like the USC ass raping from a couple years back.


How many points would they have scored if they used a Big 10 officiating crew?

gant is only starting, and maybe playing, if bryant and one of the top 3 corners can't go.

Hankins plays as much if not more than goebel. All three backup dts log major minutes. The backup ends do not.

Meyer isnt leaving until after the bowl game, so you wont have the excuse that your couch wasnt there when OSU beats you!:osu:


Their bowl game is several days before ours. If you honestly think Petrino would forever tarnish his reputation by leaving Arkansas within hours of their first BCS bowl then you, little buckeye, are delusional.
