they still have that ugly ass thing at mid field. WTH are they thinking? We can expect plenty of ribbing over that one. Horrible.

That emblem is enough to justify cancelling any future games at WMS. Sorry, folks, but that's embarassing.
I am a Hog fan. I was long before my name was etched, twice, on the sidewalks on the Hill. I will be long after Sam Pittman and Eric Mussleman are coaches, and Hunter Yuracheck is AD. I am a Hog fan when we win, when we lose and when we don't play. I love hearing the UA band play the National Anthem on game day, but I sing along to the Alma Mater. I am a Hog fan.<br /><br />A liberal education is at the heart of a civil society, and at the heart of a liberal education is the act of teaching. - Bart Giamatti <br /><br />"It is a puzzling thing.

I like the old lady but who ever was in charge of that emblem crap needs to be fired.  That is just bad! Really bad. Come one LR what the heck was u thinking!

WMS already looked like an old Conference USA stadium and that hidious mid-field emblem makes it look even worse. I hope all of the tailgating drunks who piss their pants at the thought of playing all the home games on campus get their money's worth today b/c the UofA sure won't.

Does anyone have a link to a pic of the emblem?   I've not seen it.

Let me explain how this works...  If I have four really good meals in a row, I am thankful for that and I do not withhold my thanks for fear that the next meal might suck.

Please tell me you're kidding!

You have 2,956 posts and somehow you had no idea what was at the center of the field?

Here we are about to kick LSU's butt and all y'all are concerned about is an emblem at mid-field?  Heck, I don't care if we take them on in the parking lot....
Go Hogs!

What does Jesus have to do with the Logo?

agree. i edited it to Holy Cow. know some -- including me to a degree -- find that sort of thing offensive.

BTW, the emblem is very stupid. that the best those folks in LR can do?

the UA either needs to have that place spruced up or quit playing -- especially on TV -- there. i'm all for two LR games but not in crappy, embarrassing venues while on national TV.

Don't sweat the little stuff.

Today's field will look great because of what happens on it.

Dana, other than the emblem at midfield, on tv the stadium will look fine.
When there are 55k screamin' standin' folks in the stand - you don't actually see the stadium anyway.

The field itself, (except maybe the logo) actually will look better than RRS.
The field up there is looking rough.

So you have to hear the Notre Dame crap incessantly? That would suck, at least for me...

Back to the topic at hand: I like games in Little Rock, but the new logo is really bad. They did it when they replaced the surface this year. I don't know what prompted it. It looks really "Fisher Price" to me.

bigyellowdog

That logo is the final reason to have the games moved from WMS to RRS. This is too big of a game to be looking minor league.  People are going to tune in and actually think that is the Hogs "home" stadium.

i'm afraid lots of camera angles will reveal the horrible logo. not that big a deal, tho, just nonsensical and a lil embarrassing.

glad to hear the field looks better. it was blotchy and really ugly two years ago.

u know, that last sentence is a good point (first one not bad, either). some casual fans -- and there will be lots of those watching today -- actually will think that.

I'd rather have a Hog at midfield too, but the folks at WMS must be between a rock and a hard place on every decision they make, and can barely make it financially, and we are only able to have games in LR by a razor thin margin.

The are games still in LR, so I ain't complaining.

The Rock will bring the noise today, the Hogs will win, the place will go crazy, I can live with the ugly logo.

You could have just dropped it all together if it really bugged people? I'm not trying to bash WMS at all, all the Hog games I've ever been to have been there, but that emblem is just horrible and makes us look bad.

Bigyellowdog you just stepped in a big ol' pile of crap with that statement right there! ;D

Not suggesting we don't discuss it, just suggesting that it shouldn't ruin anyones day.

Today will be a great, GREAT day for the Hogs, the best or worst logo in the world won't change that.
