We are winning in untimely 15 yard penalties.

[PORKULATOR]

[Buffhog]

Hogs up 7-0 in second half....little victories add up

[Martygit]

We're winning 12-7!  If you don't count that disastrous 2nd quarter, anyway.

[Capt. Hamm]

[Capt. Hamm]

[gijoejd]

BA's PA is beautiful. 

[Buffhog]

Looks like a different team

[Capt. Hamm]

Wow!

[Atlhogfan1]

The positive is the team didn't give up. 

[Razor1997]

Absolutely this.  Last year this would have been a 52-6 final score.

Something CBB said or did at halftime has brought this team to play in the second half - we may not win (need 3 TD's w/o GA scoring), but at least we're playing - unlike the first half

[hellwonthaveme]

Let the dude respond to me Lanny....

Go hogs :razorback:

[Dr. Starcs]

I'll be danged. A caught punt.

We are making progress.

[Martygit]

Positives:  A & M scored no points on Alabama
                Missouri scored no points on Georgia

[Horthawg]

The east now has a victory over a west team so there's that.

[Dr. Starcs]

Why can't we be more aggressive vertically early in the game?

Hey man...We are blind followers here.....

Even the band....

The team is still fighting. At least that is a positive.

[Piggfoot]

My first trip here. At least they didn't just lay down. Hopefully we can beat Mizzou And Ole Miss

[scooby21322]

I switched over here from the vent thread.  The second half still gives me hope.  If the halves had been switched, we wouldn't feel as bad about a 13 point loss.

The SEC season is halfway over. 

[The_Bionic_Pig]

Take away those turnovers and this game is TIGHT!

[axedawg]

4th quarter points!

[root_hawg]

Proud of how they handled the second half unlike tam who quit in second half, I'm liking this team next year and years after as we build depth and get more quality players

[RedSkiesAtNightHog]

Arkansas played much better in the second half.  They did not quit.  There is still hope for 6 wins!

Yeah, let's stalk the coach's wife and boom, we discovered EXACTLY why we lost today.

[XavierZane]

Once again the game came down to a few key moments and mistakes that, per usual, can be traced back to lack of depth and inexperience.  We lose a dynamic defensive player or two and the difference in execution is noticeable.  One mistake snowballs into a morale shift.

Think on this:  with about ten minutes to go in the second quarter the game was 10-6 and we had stopped them on third down. An unseen unsportsmanlike conduct penalty negates this and leads to a score.  Immediately after this there's a fumble that leads to a touchdown, the first of three turnovers that led almost immediately to scores.  Georgia got 28 points in 9 minutes due to our self-inflicted wounds.  The fact that we came back from that and made Georgia feel like the game was in contention again is pretty impressive. 

My opinion of the team is still positive, and my assessment of them is basically the same as before this game.  We've lost to three Top 10 games due almost solely to self-inflicted wounds (and a couple questionable calls).  We still need depth on defense, and we need a couple more playmakers on offense.  Brandon Allen needs to consistently play like he did in the second half and 1st quarter, or at least not compound mistakes by losing composure. 

[CountryHam]

Loosing all these SEC games will make that first win so much sweeter!...is that positive enough?

[scooby21322]

Ha....HAha....hahahahahaha

Hope....HAHA

You have to admire a well thought, articulate, critique.   

[XavierZane]

Another positive is that I was genuinely impressed with the fans at the game.  I turned off the game for a bit at the end of the first half, I'll admit.  When I turned it back on as the 3rd quarter started, I expected the stadium to be half empty.  But it seemed like only a few people left, and they stayed supportive throughout the second half.
