Stay humble men...

[DLUXHOG]

It's a long season ahead of us...   One week at a time....  Great Win today though!  WPS!!!

[bphi11ips]

This changes nothing.  Texas Tech not very good.

[Dropkick]

Exactly, we beat Texas Tech convincingly not the Seahawks.
NIU won't be a cupcake.

GO HOGS!

[PorkRinds]

I dunno. It changes a few things. Last year their bad team would have trounced us.

Troof

[FORTVEGAS]

NO

[Huckleberry Pig]

Ehh, this was prob our biggest game of the season in terms of bowl eligibility, and we all knew it.  Let's enjoy the W for a night.


I'll be more humble tomorrow.  Tonight, I'll be proud.

[DLUXHOG]

NIU may not be a cupcake... matter of fact, they may be pretty good... but...  I will bet good money we beat them rather convincingly at home.......

Fine, be miserable.

[Wildhog]

Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble...

[popcornhog]

This changes nothing.  Texas Tech not very good.

They're not very good, true. And a lot of folks are overstating this win. We have some big holes.

But Jesus did our O Line look just incredible.

We'll get a couple of SEC wins.

[mckinneyhog5]

Didn't take long for people to start downplaying our win.  Not that I'm shocked that some here would do it, I actually predicted they would.

[bphi11ips]

Oh good god. Shut up and enjoy the freaking win!!!

The win was great.  But that isn't the point.

[razorpimp]

You act like you are on the team...shut up

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

I'm thinking todays game is the beginning of the opposite of what happened after the 2nd half of the 1st game against Rutgers.

[LZH]

I dunno. It changes a few things. Last year their bad team would have trounced us.

By 2:00 I had already talked myself into believing we were gonna screw it up, because we are supposed to win these games by two touchdowns......we're Arkansas dammit.


Btw (and holy cow) Bielema covered us by an extra TD.

[Hoggish1]

All it was was taking care of business, nothing more...

[Hogsmo Kramer]

I don't usually agree with your politics but I agree with ^^^This^^^.

We are much improved and manhandled a Tech team that likely would have beaten us last year.

WPS!!!

I'm happy to have the win and hope we continue to improve and keep the ball rolling!

[DLUXHOG]

All it was was taking care of business, nothing more...

Oh.. it was much more than taking care of business...  most of the "fans" on this board that thought we would win, said we would win by maybe 3 - 7 points...   We absolutely destroyed TTU....  and made a BIG statement........   I think our Hogs will continue to surprise the naysayers in the sportsworld and the "fans" on this board.......  I hope so anyway....

[Großer Kriegschwein]

Dari just reminded everyone that BA is 14 of 16 with 6 TD when running play action this season. That's a stat I like.

[cosmodrum]

All it was was taking care of business, nothing more...

Nice to be back to doing that.

[bphi11ips]

All it was was taking care of business, nothing more...

You got it.  Good game played to our strength.  No one should be surprised.  Act like we've been there. 

[moses_007]

It's hard to be humble when we totally dominate two teams in a row and win going away.  I realize the SEC teams will be tougher, or will they? Our offensive line just might start dominating some SEC games.  We better improve the passing significantly, however, as we're going to need it at the next level.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

All it was was taking care of business, nothing more...

No, it was taking care of business with confidence and pride.

[LZH]

No, it was taking care of business with confidence and pride.

We won!  We won!  We won!

[cosmodrum]

Been a while since we've been there. This is the internet. Enjoy the win.

[Großer Kriegschwein]

We had, with a couple of exceptions, good ball control all day. Controlled the clock, grinding the ball thru the DL and imposing our will.

We didn't throw the ball, but didn't need to in order to win by three touchdowns. No need to change what was working. Looked confident to me.

[CallThemHawgs!]

Sadly, I agree... there were idiots over talking trash on the TT boards. Just pathetic.

Long season ahead, great win, but we are a long damn way from being good enough to get cocky

[Amityvillehogger]

A win is a win dude. We just come off a 10 gamer from the opposite direction. I'll take them anyway and from anyone I can get em'.

im not trying to rain on any ones parade. it was a solid win. but for any one to say that TT did not give us all we wanted for 3 quarters is asinine. our depth or what little we have took over. THEN we started to pull away. we will need to continue that depth progression or we will still pull a goose egg against the rest of the sec.

They competed with us for about 35 minutes of a 60 minute game. They scored 7 points in the 2nd half.

Now you got me humming a tune I can't remember the name of.

[Uberanubis]

you have to look at the second half differently then the first. im mean there were only 3 total possessions in the 3rd quarter. CBB new that if we went out and just ground out a score on the first possession that it would take Tech out of their HUNH game. and it worked. depth was very key.

they still racked up 353 yards of total offence and put up 28. for such a poor team that seams like a problem to me. it could have been a lot closer had we not ground away the 3rd quarter.

[The Divine Swine]

1000% this. Our Hogs are back. still got some things to improve, but this game proves what Bielema is building is going to become beastly. Imagine what we will look like with more defensive recruiting.

[redeye]

NIU may not be a cupcake... matter of fact, they may be pretty good... but...  I will bet good money we beat them rather convincingly at home.......

FWIW, their OL is really small.  Not sure that matters, but I think they average well under 300 lbs.

[HawgnCorona]

NIU may not be a cupcake... matter of fact, they may be pretty good... but...  I will bet good money we beat them rather convincingly at home.......

They werent last year....and are 3-0 this year with a win over Northwestern. Should be a good game that we win at home.

We will be in BEAST MODE!! :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback:

TTU was favored.

[popcornhog]

All it was was taking care of business, nothing more...

First OOC road win in 11 years.

First win in like two years against a power conference team.

Physically dominating and winning by multiple touchdowns on the road in a game in which the other team was favored by 2 1/2 points.

In what world is this "taking care of business, nothing more"?

Is TTU a good team? No. But Jesus man, we manhandled them. We have plenty of holes and need to get better but that was more than taking care of business.

[ZERO]

We're fighting tooth and nail for Bowl eligibility. Sure, we should be humble. But the point is this is some of the improvement we all expected to see last year. We've beaten two bad teams in a row, but we beat them FAR beyond what we (and the rest of the country) expected to. We took care of them as if we actually WERE a good team. Tech was actually favored. It puts the mind at ease to see business being handled so swiftly and efficiently.

This game showed we still have no defense, but half of us were expecting them to score 45-52 on us. Hey, it's a start, right? Here's to hoping we keep improving throughout the season.

That was the difference between Auburn and Tech... I believe we would have had an even closer game with Auburn had we played them later in the year. We possibly could have won. These talented freshmen are getting some excellent experience now... We will go as far as our depth can carry us...

[jimmur74]

This changes nothing.  Texas Tech not very good.

Sure it changes something. It made us 2 and 1. Whether Texas Tech isn't good or we are better this season remains to be seen. I say we are better

[MuskogeeHogFan]

Today we enjoy the win, tomorrow we can remain humble.

[The NewEra]

This changes nothing.  Texas Tech not very good.

It's a two game winning streak.  I would say that changes something.  But then again, I want the program to do well.

[Hollywood_HOGan45]

Uh yea it does change things.

We won a game! We won 7 combined the last two years! It's ok to get excited. We are fans!

Your life must suck.

[Gonzo]

You act like you are on the team...shut up

Precisely the route my mind was running about this, and I have no idea which "side" you're referencing. i always get a kick out of how much "I" and "we" I see in fan discussions, as if they were personally involved. And it seems more pronounced when things are going well than vice versa.

That being said, I think this team should be very pleased and proud this morning. They're making noticeable strides. They will certainly take some lumps this season, they should enjoy the heck out of the high points.


Go Hogs! Beat N Illinois!

[Ragnar Hogbrok]

This game was the launching point to a 6-7 win season and bowl eligibility.  Nobody thinks we're going to win the SEC W this year.  But we can be competitive in every game, and maybe win a couple we weren't "supposed" to.

I hope you Debbie Downers don't treat your children like you do the Razorbacks.

[Hawgzinbowlz]

Nicholls State = Arkansas favored by 40 and we cover +26

TT = TT favored by 2 and we win by 21

We are a little better than the numbers guys thought...

We may go bowling.

" GO HOGS "
