Pretty amazing considering Smiley and the year digging out of that mess are included. Rankings will look completely different in a few years as Hogs continue to improve and Ole Miss's cheating years, A$M's Manziel years, Miss St's Prescott years, and Gus's lucky first year age out of the equation. No doubt in my mind Hogs will be third in the conference behind Bama and LSU in two more years.

2 of the worst years in our programs history, including the longest conference losing streak, and we aren't even last in the SEC.

Wrap your heads around that one.

I agree BB, that we are on the way to cementing our place as the number 3 team in the West and one that could jump over 1-2 every few years when the stars align

Amen
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

Nope, you need it FAR worse than I. With your positive outlook you must be a real joy to be around when someone is going under the knife for a major operation. I just hope you're not the operating doctor.

Losing gracefully isn't taught in second-tier programs. See Arkansas, Cincinnati, et al.

What are you talking about? That was half a decade ago and was for only 1 season. And the Hogs were pre-season #8 that year. The players were good, just the coach who was bad.

Nah, that team was overrated from the jump. Not saying they only win 4 game with BP, but they weren't going to finish with a top 10 ranking for sure.

I'm talking about the fact that the poor statistical performance of that team on the field, regardless of your opinion of the players, factors heavily into the statistical ranking for the past five years.  As does the middling statistical performance of the 3-9 team the next year.  This five-year measure tries to be objective, and the first two years included were objectively bad.  The next two were very very good (despite the team's poor record) because of close games and fielding a competitive team.  Last year was very meh.  If the next two years are anything like 2014 and 2015, or even just an average of the past three years, then the Hogs will probably be ranked third in the SEC-W by this statistic in two years.

So what are you talking about?  Still crying and moaning about anything Arkansas football related?  You looking forward to the doomsday 0-12 season next year?  Bet you can't wait.
