If we win the next three we should be in the conversation.
I support the Razorbacks in the city that never sleeps.

smacking  UCONN by 40 is about as good as you can get against a big team LOL

I say number 23.

I'd say in the 23-30 range.

Huge win and in convincing fashion, but it's a game that we were favored to win. Combined with the OU win and the NC loss, I think it moves us forward several spots.

This team is worthy of a top 15 ranking.  Lets see if we crack the top 25 first. 

We have all the pieces.

We were favored? I thought UCONN was.

Hogs were favored by 6.  I'd expect we are just outside the Top 25.  The OU win was our best win so far.  Hogs were 3 point underdogs in that game.
WPS!

Let us rephrase. A big team that's any good. They lost their last two PK80 games by 55 points.

 

Warrior Way 22

I could see us being ranked or on the verge of being ranked. This Arkansas team is good and I really believe others recognize that.

Unc getting skull drug didn't help our case for now

Last AP poll (Nov 20-26) we were ranked #39 since then #2 lost 3 games, #6 lost, #9 lost #10 lost, #15 lost, #17 lost, #18 lost 2 games, #23 lost, #25 lost, #32 lost, #34 lost 2 games, #35 lost, #36 (OU) lost to us #37A lost, #37B (Oregon) lost to a team we beat.

UConn was not listed in the top 50 so fun game but not a big win in this context.
You can't always convince someone you are right, but you can always convince them you think you're right!

Win the next 3 and we will be ranked for sure. Not sure how high though but at least we will be in there. Lose to Houston and it will be a while before we get ranked. Just got to keep winning games.

TexArkHogFan

Beating Houston at Houston will cause more movement than beating OU and UCONN.  Follow that up with a win vs a ranked Minnesota should put us in the Top 25.  Our RPI is looking good.
There are all kinds of Lions, Tigers and Bears in college football.  But there is only one Razorback.  Beware the Tusks!!! They are coming

I honestly couldn't care less if we are ranked in late November. Just keep winning. That'll all get sorted out.

I agree, just sitting on the outside. We got smacked by UNC who got smacked in their final round, and we only have one or two voters giving us any love a week ago. People are paying attention to the SEC now, but it'll take a week or two for them to come back around to us. If we lose to Minnesota we may not be ranked until SEC play.

I don,t really care except for the fact you get more exposure along the way as a top 25 ranked team.

Recruits look at rankings and ESPN exposure too. Helps with future classes.

Well, we ain't got any spots open until 2020 (hard to believe we'd venture out of the state even then) so we have plenty of time to make an impression on recruits that aren't already interested/familiar.




(I get that stuff happens and a spot might come open after the season, but that's more likely to be for a grad transfer.)
