Holy Cow...I thought I was listening to a commercial with audio from last year and Matt JOnes. I got damn confused on that one! The frickin Buzz came back to the game late and while the run was in progress!!!

same thing here! all i heard was paul say "Jones, down the sideline..." and i thought it was another promo. was'nt till after he scored that i realized.

I got the same thing from KWYN here in Wynne. I'm ready for McFadden too.

I think that got us all.

The Yahoo! Gamechannel still has the score 7-3. Realtime huh.

CNN/SI is doing a nice job of updating the stats.

[Foots]

Mort and DMac are in now.

[LL COOL HOG]

another turnover!!!

[WilsonHog]

Nice throw by Mortensen wasted, unless instant replay reverses it.

[HighOnHogs]

four turnovers. Not good

[I'M EMBARRASSED]

I don't know if anybody else is having to listen to SMS's commentators, but they are the worst that I have ever heard.  Complete idiots.

[WilsonHog]

This is Peyton's first 100 yard game as a Razorback.

[WilsonHog]

Just made a 39-yard FG attempt a 44-yard attempt, which we miss. Great.

[wallyhog]

Lots of different names being called making tackles. I think that's a good thing

[Le Hogtre]

If we were in Athens this week, we would look like Boise St.

[OkieHog]

[wallyhog]

Defemse meeds to step up now

[Thehammer]

grrr

This game is embarrassing.  We're playing a 1aa school and can't pass block, hold on to the football, take a snap cleanly from under center ---  foolish penalties, poor special teams play.  This game should've been 35-0 by now.    We still can't throw the football worth a hoot.  All we can do is run.   Against a team like Mizzou State, that's good enough. 

But you have to keep this thing in perspective:  Springdale would probably play these guys close. 

[wallyhog]

It's not very encouraging, we'd best make some progress

Dacus and Olajabutu with 5 tackles each.

This experiment with Robert Johnson needs to end right now.   He's not a passer.  The one pass that Mortenson threw was right on the money.   Johnson is a turn over just waiting to happen.

[WilsonHog]

Felix Jones has 3 carries for 117 yards.

[wallyhog]

Gee I think I"ll like this Jones kid

[hogsgrl09]

Gee I think I"ll like this Jones kid

same here

[WilsonHog]

Wasted some time right there.

[Hog Bounty Hunter]

Jones sounds like he is going to be a stud, I am surprised with our performance so far.

[MajorHog]

how about a score for the latecomers here?

is Mizzou State REALLY A 1-AA school or was that someone being sarcastic?

MajorHog

[Hog Bounty Hunter]

Let's bring Howard in for a 3 yard run.

[pioneerhog]

Well we can run the ball, what else is new. Now all we need to do is learn how to PASS the ball. Give Barthel a shot and let him see what he can do.

[Thehammer]

UGLY UGLY UGLY UGLY

It's the same old deal.   We're going to be a one dimensionial offense.  Robert Johnson is a disaster at qb. 

[hogsgrl09]

Gee I think I"ll like this Jones kid

but let us not forget markus and peyton

[wallyhog]

Well until we face a real defense our run offense will look studly. No balance, they'll put eight in the box and beg us to pass.   Can't tell much from this team we are playing.  Hope we get lots of points so lots of kids can get some PT

[pioneerhog]

28-3 in favor of Ark. I really think Jones is going to be a very good back.

[Hog Bounty Hunter]

If you can run then why pass? 

[WilsonHog]

MajorHog

Arkansas 28, Missouri State 3 at halftime.

Yeah, they're D-IAA.

[wallyhog]

So what do you figure our total yardage will be for the game? 500?

[Bomis Hawg]

This is not a horrible showing.  Ugly at times, yes.  Arkansas is up 28-3 at the break.

It could be worse.  Miss State is up 17-6 at Halftime to Murray State.  Cal was up 10-3 at halftime, but won 41-3.

Felix Jones and Hillis are looking great.  RoJo has been decent.  Monk fumbled one play that should've resulted in points.  And, a missed FG.  Not bad thus far, in my view.

Second half needs to be all points and shut them out.

[WilsonHog]

If you can run then why pass?

Because eventually teams much more talented defensively than Missouri State will put eight men in the box and dare us to pass. 

[wallyhog]

If you can run then why pass?

you won't win in the SEC unless you can do both

[wallyhog]

It's pretty obvious we can run all over these chumps.  I'd say getting some of the youngsters some PT is a top priorty.  They say on the radio that Johnson has settled down.  Be interesting to see what he does in the 2nd half.

[Hog Bounty Hunter]

Well then we will pass, but I would rather put this game away first. 

[WilsonHog]

Johnson is 9-14 passing for 56 yards, one TD and one INT.  Mortensen is 1-2 for 25 yards.

Jones has 3 carries for 117 and Hillis has 8 carries for 110.

Monk has five catches for 55 yards and one TD.

First Downs: Arkansas 15, Missouri State 8

Total Yards: Arkansas 323, Missouri State 160

Yards Rushing: Arkansas 242 (on 20 attempts), Missouri State 70 (on 19 attempts)

Yards Passing: Arkansas 81 (10 of 16), Missouri State 90 (8 of 16)

Penalties: Arkansas 4 for 25, Missouri State 3 for 25

We've fumbled four times and lost two, plus one interception.  Missouri State has fumbled three times and lost all three, plus one interception.

[pioneerhog]

I wonder what Herring is saying right about now. It probably wouldn't be a good place for a little kid to be right now.

[wallyhog]

Can't be really happy with the start of the game for sure.  These guys should not be able to move a bit on us. That's discouraging.

[Lanny]

First game jitters however the passing attack is pitiful.  Did anyone watch Mustain earlier today?

[ThisTeetsTaken]

can I change my prediction for this season's record?

[Bomis Hawg]

Only two passes for Mort, 1/2.

7 tackles for Vaughn.  6 for Sammy O.  6 for Weston Dacus, also.

[wallyhog]

Hey it could be a lot worse, we could be Bama! Just barely ahead of Middle Tenn. St. 9-7 @ the half

[hogsgrl09]

tell me about it. the play by play guy has a talk show here during drive-time. No personality whatsoever, even less sports knowledge.
