thats one of the reasons why the crowds have been down quite a bit.

Really tough to get excited about playing all these high school teams. Should have had at least one more BCS school on the schedule at home in my opinion.

Our SOS is in the mid 30's, which is better than 90% of other BCS conference schools.  Some people just like to gripe.  I wish the fans would go back to being fans and leave the administrating to the qualified.

It is the non-conference basketball season;  Arkansas remains high in SOS, nationally, despite playing a couple of clunkers.

I don't recall this sort of complaint when Nolan's Hogs were toasting the likes of Deleware State every November/December
No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

They might not be top 25 teams, but they are actually some quality teams (ORU, missouri state, mizzou).  We are also not good enough to play better teams, we are fortunate to have some time to get better.  I like our situation much more than Kentuckys.

I'd rather beat these teams than lose to tougher teams.

Or Montevallo, a team so bad that Nolan played the 2nd and 3rd team for the whole game, the starting 5 never aw the floor, and we won by 30+.  Thats the problem, when we played them then, we won by 40.  Now, we might win by 20, and this is still a hard team to watch offensively.
