What game do you think will be the proverbial upset that Arkansas this season?
Quote from: BearsBisonsBoars on January 18, 2016, 11:06:54 pm. The four team playoff is still opinion. Or do you really think MSU was really the fourth best team in CFB?
You miss the boat.  A four team playoff is a championship.  A championship produces... a champion. You seem to be looking for the "best" team.  The "best" doesn't exist. Best does not equal champion.  Best is a myth.
Opinion polls produce... opinions.

I could see us losing to USCe.

I can see us beating both of the Texas teams.

I can see us losing to South Carolina, although we might not be the favorite in that game so it wouldn't be an upset.

Potentially. Depends on the two Texas games.

You never know what will happen with the LSU game, so I'll go with them.

It wasn't quite clear. My assumption was which game will we lose that is likely to leave us scratching our heads. It's been a recent trend.

You kind of do know with the LSU game, though.  Will LSU have just competent QB play?  If so, then we in trouble.  If not, then we've got a shot.  I don't know their QB situation.

Hogs upset Auburn in DWRRS.
You called that one a tie. Or, according to you, you weren't able to decide.

Not a tie, a tossup. If the Hogs are going to pull a true upset this year, this would be it.
My heart says the Hogs win a close one in DWRRS.

I thought the OP was asking which game would Arkansas pull an upset (Texas games) and which game we will be upset, I picked South Carolina.

There are a lot of games to pick from given that early in the season anyway, almost everyone will be ranked as a favorite over Arkansas.

That said, one could very well be A&M but only because they will be ranked ahead of us to begin the season. They will have to demolish UCLA in their opener for their game with us to be classified as a potential "upset" game because after UCLA they face Nichols State and LA-Lafayette before meeting us.

I don't think that Alabama will be one, though I would love that.

Auburn might be considered the next upset and the good news is that this game that is played in RRS, will be at the tail end of a 7 week-7 game stretch for Auburn. For it to be considered to be an upset, they will have had to have beaten Missouri in Columbia, Miss State at home, Ole Miss at home and LSU the week before us in Baton Rouge.

Could LSU be a potential upset game for us? They'll have to beat Miss State in Starkville, Florida in Gainesville, Auburn at home and Ole Miss in Oxford. Of course they have Alabama the week before us so they could be "tenderized" a little when we play them. Still, if we could beat them with their only loss being to Alabama, this could be classified as a legit "upset".

I think that is about it with regard to potential "upset" games, at least in projecting from this point of the summer.

I think it's a common event whether it is in AR or around the world where a group of Hog fans get together.  I've seen it in TN, TX, LA and in Germany.  Being a Razorback is like being in a brotherhood.  When the brotherhood meet, they call the Hogs.

The Hogs should be 4-0 going to South Carolina, while the Gamecocks will probably be 3-2. So, if those are the records like I think they will be, then No, Arkansas shouldn't be an underdog for that game.

In answer to the original question, I'll go with LSU.

We did pretty good against Muschamps Defense when he was at Allbard.. I like our chances

But on the bright side, we'll probably be ahead by three touchdowns at halftime.

Texas A&M! Sadly  this game is considered a upset if Hogs win.

I see us upsetting TCU and my confidence level is high for aTm.

ATM-  Regardless of the records at the time or the line, beating ATM would have to be considered an upset.  In light of the complete debacles since we last beat them in 2011. 

TCU-  I think we win... but don't think of it as an upset.  Technically, it will be because they are likely to be the favorite. 

Auburn- would definitely be an upset after getting boat raced 56-3 last year.  While I think we will be improved, I can't see us improving 53 points.  Running away gauntlet 3 out of the prior 4 weeks (ATM, USCe, BAMA), play them close and I won't be too upset.   

Ole Miss-  We could be pretty banged up by the time this game rolls around.  Still hard to count a win here as an upset with everything they have going on.

LSU-  My first actual upset.  They are a better team with better talent and will be much higher ranked.  Somehow we will find a way to get this win... same logic that has us losing headscratchers to ATM also has us somehow finding ways to win games we just shouldn't against LSU. 

Other than Alabama, I will be upset if we find a way to lose any of the other games on our schedule that I didn't mention.

Hopefully Auburn, for two reasons I have a strong dislike for them and would like to make all the sportswriters eat crow over the Stidham hype.

We will upset Aubbie.


The Sporting News listed the trap games for the title contenders. They think we are Auburn's trap game.

LSU at Ole Miss (Oct. 21)

At this point Bama would be the only win I consider an upset. Not because its bama, but because I could see our other games going either way. No one really stands out this year

So, if we go 10-2 that would mean someone upset us?

phadedhawg

I figure LSU will be favored when we play them, they usually are.  That's one team we can usually hang with no matter the records.  We usually have a chance against them. 

I don't see us beating Alabama and that's the only team we play that way over our heads.  None of the games will be a major upset but that one.

How do you come up with the Hogs should be 4-0? We're like an 8 point dog to TCU. We could be 4-0, but should be is a stretch.

How are we a 8 point dog to a team we beat last year and it's a home game? Arkansas will be 4-0.

We were supposed to start out 3-0 in 2015 against UTEP, Toledo, and Texas Tech.

Went 1-2.
