    I was worried initially but Brandon Allen has proved to be pretty terrible this year. I'm not worried about them passing on us. We left our corners out I islands against Bama and Amari Cooper and did well. Their run game covers up their weakness at QB, which should sound familiar. Surely they can't be better at us at our own game.

    Yes, they have been playing tough and losing close games but they always seem to find a way to lose. They go winless in the SEC again this year. Hope our players are fired up about the line.

    This. They had moo u beat and Les Miles'd it. Should be a battle of the nit wits to see who does their best to lose but runs out of time before getting the prize.

    I think this is a far assessment and is how I feel about Saturday's game. The weather does concern me, but Arkansas players will be suffering, too, even though they do get more cold weather than our South Louisiana boys. This cold front that's come through is no joke. I cannot remember a week-long sustained winter Arctic front in the middle of November here in North Texas; we even had sleet last night, which normally doesn't happen at least until December.

    I also am not worried about Arkansas' passing game being a problem, and honestly, with Beckwith now in the middle, our run defense has become much better.

    I've only watched Arkansas in small doses all season. How's their run defense?

    I can attest to that. It's currently 0 and the high today might get to 16.

    weather may preclude this and take any throwing game off the table. Going to be a (to quote Bobby Hebert) "bust a snot bubble game".

    Their run defense did not impress me to much. They are trying to get those bigger, faster guys so they can compete with us big boys. They had a few good plays from the 2 games I watched, but I think our O-line should be able to handle them. We have really been playing well at O-line the last few games. I am impressed compared to how we started. I don't worry about passing if Beckwith & Co. can contain those backs, I am only worried if we would have to bring in run support from the secondary. But I did not take the weather into consideration until I walked outside this morning. Now I'm in my office with my heater on and I ain't movin today until 5 o'clock.

    I think its mainly up to the defensive tackles this game and they have stepped up their play significantly this season. If they can plug the middle, we can beat Arkansas and they will have arrived.
