Rasputin Unveils His UTEP Prediction. What's Yours?
In anticipation of tomorrow's battle against Texas-El Paso, we asked Rasputin, our staff soothsayer and a seemingly ageless Russian immigrant, to offer his prediction for the game. Rasputin - who is said to have pitched the "My Mother the Car" TV series to NBC - has been a rabid Razorback football fan since the program's debut in 1894.
His forecast is after the jump:
"With the autumn moon lighting my way,
I doth seek escape from the nerve-wracking day.
In the mountainous countryside, I wipe away a tear,
and revel in the visions that soon doth appear.
Many points and many touchdowns - of these I do see,
Victorious by a wide margin, my beloved Hogs will be.
As I look up at the beautiful night sky,
I think, "How quickly this season has gone by!"
The end is suddenly, shockingly at hand,
And the Hogs, maybe they're not the best in the land.
But a strong and spirited finish - that is within their reach,
Make it so, make it so - of the Hogs, this I do beseech.
The pig-emblazoned warriors of Arkansas - 41,
the most honorable and spirited warriors of Texas-El Paso - 17."

The Hogs Win
But I wouldn’t put it beyond them to put some moments of scare into us like at the first of the Vandy game. Ideally, the Hogs jump on them early and put up forty in the first half and can play backups entirely in the second half. That is what you are suppose to do to the UTEPs of the world.
It'd be fun
to see the second string rule the day. I’d love to see Tyler Wilson get in and have some luck behind center. I’ve been pulling for that guy ever since Auburn.
On another note I’d love to see Rasputin’s respond to his incorrect prediction of the SC game. Could it be that his crystal ball was dirty or had he had a bit too much vodka?
Stay Classy San Diego.
we dispatched an intern to ask him about his South Carolina prediction
That intern returned as a large, wart-covered toad. Don’t mess with Raz.
