Hogs vs Dawgs Postgame Thread: Um, How About That 1st Quarter?

… it’s too bad that neither the Georgia nor Arkansas defenses were there to see it.

Seriously, though, I liked what I saw from your team… good luck the rest of the year. I still feel comfortable with my preseason prediction that the Hogs are the darkhorse in the west.

When your QB throws for 5TDs/0INTsand 400+yds, you should win the game.

Alas….

Defensive Coordinator – Willy Robinson
Linebackers – Reggie Johnson
Secondary – Willy Robinson

I turned on the game here in Melbourne, Australia on a bright Sunday morning. I saw the giant hog on the 50 yard line, people dressed in red, and a stadium that I remember being in NW Arkansas.

But I didn’t recognise the team on the field. Having grown up during the Holtz/Hatfield days of Veer offense and running draws on 3rd and long, I thought my TV was broken or the signal was scrambled from ESPN International and I was watching another team actually pass the ball with abandon.

Well, in the first half anyway.

BTW – thank you to ESPN International for showing a Razorback game for the first time in the four years since I left the US. My Slingbox is genius, but it’s nice watching a Hog game on a real, live television instead of the pixelated movement online. Bring back ESPN College Game Plan online!

watching that strange team air it out while wearing Hog uniforms was surreal.
