Right thats what I was actually meaning earlier. That our season ticket holders AND donors get first crack. If you're a donor and season ticket you get top priority. I can't believe your university doesn't do this.

In years past (prior to the 2009 Fiesta Bowl) it was never an issue. Season ticket holders and students/staff would buy them all. Even then, there was a pecking order within the season ticket holders. Only since that Fiesta Bowl has there been public sales. It is something I would like the administration to address. There is no reason not to have the Alumni Club or lower level donors the shot at tickets before the public. The only reason I could see is they want to offer public tickets as quickly as possible so the University does not get stuck with the bill in case they don't sell out.

Yea they should def change that. We have a pecking order to until you get to general season ticket owns who don't donate in which case it was who sent their request in first. I know several season ticket holders that didnt get tickets. They were pissed ha.

Apparently the Arkansas fans find the term "Arky" derisive. Other SEC fanbases use the term to talk down to them.

Just an FYI.

I'd rather be called an Arky than have our state referred to as "Ar-Kansas" like Les Miles did. Its not our favorite term, but we aren't going to get livid about it.

Arkansas fans do not understand what you mean by derisive.

Pigs - "derisive" means sorta mean and kinda insulting....like what you said to Tony Bua's kin when his personal fouls kept Flordia drives alive :p

Just because a team isn't competing for a national championship doesn't mean the season is over.

depends on your goals i guess.

Also, we have played in the SEC CG three times since joining the conference, so don't automatically assume you are our Super Bowl. I assure you our fan base doesn't circle the game after Thanksgiving any more than your fan base does.

was mostly my point.
neither fan base gives a shit about this "rivalry" CBS tries to force down our throat.

If we would have beaten Alabama but lost to you guys, we would be in the exact same bowl game we are in now.

wrong!
had we beat y'all, we would have only 1 loss.
we'd be in new orleans, not the hogs.
