Rasputin Unveils His Auburn Game Prediction. What's Yours?

predictions_crystal_ball_2

In anticipation of tomorrow's battle against Auburn, we consulted Rasputin, our staff soothsayer, to get his forecast for the game. A Russian immigrant who claims to be hundreds of years old and who sleeps every night in a chamber of pure oxygen, Rasputin has been a rabid Razorbacks football fan since the program's debut in 1894.

To predict tomorrow's game, Rasputin was set to guzzle some pricey wine from the skull of his mentor, Nostradamus. However, the recession has even affected the global corporate juggernaut that is Arkansas Expats. Therefore, all we could afford for Rasputin's ritual was Colt .45. Consider accordingly. Here's his prediction:

"Fermented grain in the dead man's skull - will the Hogs end their SEC lull?

Visions are cloudy, most difficult to discern. Predict lots of points - of this I have learned!

With all the factors I have to consider, it's tempting to give up and call myself a quitter.

But this I must not do - I have an oath to uphold. So I say the Hogs will bring a win into the fold!

The mighty warriors of Arkansas 35, the mighty warriors of Auburn 31."

Well, that's enough from Rasputin. Let's hear from you, both in the poll and in the comments thread.

I hope.....

that the downgrade to malt liquor won’t diminish Rasputin’s superbly precise forecasting ability which he has demonstrated in correctly predicting the victor of all games this year. I really enjoy the Rasputin bit. Let’s hope the Hogs get their first victory at Razorback Stadium over a better than average SEC opponent since……um, the 2006 Tennessee game. Soooooooooooooooooooie!!!

I said Arkansas because

I said at the start of the season this would be one that the Hogs would win. Like Ras, I’ve been right in all my picks so far. I am staying with them. But this is a much better Auburn team than I envisioned coming into the season. So it would not shock me if they walk away from Donald W. for Any SEC Team But the Hogs Reynolds Stadium with a win to take back to Auburn.
