Great show as always! Mike getting feisty at the end 😂 Courtney you’re always a sweetheart! I’d go with Courtney and go with LSU over Ole Miss. would be better to face a LSU squad high off a win than a pissed off one. And poor poor South Carolina about to face the wrath of Bama!
Courtney you were dead on about Vanderbilt!! Heard you on the radio this week and took them to cover when you said that. Also, love the show, you guys kill it each and every week.
You go Mike! I love your view on Pittboss. He is a good coach and great man. We need to keep everyone in place and Petrino groom an OC and TWill become HC with DC groomed by him. Pittboss and Petrino will retire before long and this would be a remarkable scenario. Twill has already said he wants to stay here a while. I think at least part of this could happen.
No turnovers your right! Arkansas is a problem for all SEC teams! Sam Pitman has put awesome team and staff together! This has been very exciting year of football 🏈 for Arkansas, In my opinion hardest hitting team in the country!!!!
I sat in the visitor section -120 (I was cheering for the Hogs) and the end zone looked faded to me. I haven’t been to a game in a long time, so it could be the way it always looks.
During the game, it looked a lot like the UGA game in 2020 where we were up at halftime and then UGA came storming back. Tenn went up 14-3 and I thought they were going to run away with it. Fortunately, our defense hung in there and kept us in the game so the offense could get going late in the game and pull out the win.
@@HogWild19100 it’s creepy. It gives off the notion you’re just staring at her the whole time thinking about how attractive she is instead of treating her like a professional sports anchor. Weirdo.
Why does the media have to have “a take”? I thought they were supposed to report the news, not predict it, definitely not share their personal opinions. To be fair I don’t mean on a show like this where the whole premise is answer questions, but the fact that “reporters” think they have to have a take whether it right or wrong is a lot of what I think the problem is that Mike is talking about. I really enjoy this show and the integrity shown in the answers are thought out or y’all just refuse to answer a question you’re not sure about.
I remember watching that game. Let’s start with this-there were only 13 bowl games. Old Southwest vs. the Big 8. The Big 8 champion always went to the Orange Bowl. During the season, when a team clinched the Big 8 championship, fans would throw oranges onto the field where they were playing. OU had been declared National Champion in ‘75, and shared the honor with Southern Cal in ‘74. Both teams had one loss each-to the Texas Longhorns. As #1, Texas had lost to Notre Dame (Joe Montana was the QB) earlier that day in the Cotton Bowl. Arkansas was an 18-point underdog. Until the suspension, when the spread went to 24. I’m sure that the Sooners football team came to the Orange Bowl Stadium saying, “We’re National Champions!!” A dense fog rolled in. The field-level announcer said he couldn’t see the goal post at the far end. This was Arkansas’ first appearance in the Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida. First-year Coach Lou Holtz suspended 3 players because of team rule violations. Razorbacks responded well to the one-game suspensions. They learned that Holtz was serious; he meant business. Two of the players (Ben Cowins and Donny Bobo) had scored nearly 80% of the points that year. But, at least, three 2nd-stringers got a chance to show they were just as good as the starters. The Hogs had nothing to lose. If memory serves me correctly, OU lost their footing a lot. Miami soil is quite sandy. The announcers thought that their cleats were too short. Arkansas never showed the same issue. And when it was over, Arkansas won 31-6, and it was never that close. I live in Norman OK now. About a mile west of the OU Campus. But the checks I write have Razorbacks on them. Cheers!!
Went to OU , would have cried at that game if it would’ve done any good. Work and family had my wife and I and two young daughters moving to Arkansas on the night that OU beat Arkansas in a rematch years later. Today, still in Arkansas, My oldest daughter is a professor at U of A and have 6 grandchildren. We’re all Hog fans.
@@steve2713 Well, there’s two other sets of parents out there, each containing one of my kids. I think one isn’t trying and one is, but the preggers sometimes is a little sneaky. And other times it’s very sneaky.
That’s still looks good for Arkansas though. They let us score so they could get the ball back with plenty of time. Had they not, Arkansas likely runs the clock down to about 20 seconds and then kicked a FG that could’ve iced it.
Great episode. I think HC is face of program, does PR, NIL issues, budgeting, and QC on offense, defense, and special teams. Pittman is great for this. Let Petrino concentrate just on offensive scheming. Let Travis do his job too. If you like Petrino and Williams, the OC line coach Mateos -- but blame Pittman because we lose one-score games a lot -- I dont know what to say. If Pittman leaves most likely there's a general exodus.
The fine for storming the field was created by lawyers so the conference/university can distance themselves in case of an injury. The fact is that they love it.
Why on Earth would you go through and read out a list of negative comments? How about using this as an opportunity to solidify the fanbase and leave the negativity behind instead of some passive aggressive "I told you so?"
Your right Sam Pitman has given these men a chance that's what makes this so awesome! Don't listen to these people they are trying to hurt Arkansas program every week pulling against their own team just to prove a point! Stupid selfish people!
He did the 1964 game against Nebraska in the cotton bowl won us the sports writers national championship. The '64 game against Texas secured us a place in that Cotton bowl.
The last time I checked $250,000 was real money. So does that mean that we have $250,000 less and NIL money if money is going to be squandered like this they will not be getting any donations from me.
When Saban was coaching Bama no player in his right mind would have ever openly challenged the chain of command. If he had done so his career would’ve been over at Bama.
Re. TG >> after the game, he had a lady-friend hanging over his shoulders. If his knee was in horrible shape, he could not have stood the extra 115 lbs on his body. That's my humble assessment :) WP.
Yea we are holding the football program accountable, and the reason is we want our program to get to a point where winning is normal. Not this 8 win season then the next year we only win 5, we wanna be consistent where making a bowl is a afterthought.
I don't know if all the people that have been calling for Sam Pittman's firing are just really ignorant about football or they secretly hate the Arkansas Razorbacks. We know for sure that a few are trolls and bots. All those people that want to be negative about Sam Pittman remember what your grandma said, "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all." I will keep trying to remember what my grandfather told me, "opinions are like A-holes, everybody has one, even the stupid folks.
Mike keeps saying you have to have the right coach. I was told players make a coach. With Mike saying his opinion means Arkansas has never had the right coach for 100 years since they haven't won much in NCs.
We checked every game with Tyler! He never came in in the fourth quarter with the game on the line and had to win it! A very unique situation and we think Malachi is the first Arkansas backup QB to do it.
Is it true that the $250,000 fine levied against Arkansas for rushing the field goes to the University of Tennessee? Is this fine paid with taxpayers dollars I love my Razorbacks, but I thought of stupidly wasting money. Makes me want to throw up my cookies.
We checked Matt Jones! Didn’t come in any game in the fourth quarter with the game on the line and win it in 2001 when he was the backup. It’s a very specific situation and we think Malachi might have been the first Arkansas backup QB to do it!
29:18 one thing your not taking into consideration Mike is that they are making ALOT of money to perform! If they were not I would be more understanding!
@@TalkingBallWithJawan I think they absolutely CAN. I don’t think they will though. I optimistically think we’re gonna lose 2 more. Pessimistically I think it’s a possibility we only win 2 more. I will honestly be happy with anything between those two options though. Now next year we could ride this improvement to a really great season.
@@JustinWilliams-f6l Soooooo….. you gonna bless us with your knowledge and tell us who is the best or you just here to tell someone their opinion (really a fact) is wrong.
Glad we got the win but questioning Pittman’s coaching over the last 2 seasons until Saturday was completely justified. Fans have short memories, Pittman needs more wins to quiet the fire Sam crowd.
When Pittman has both an excellent OC and an excellent DC to prop him up (2020, 2021, and 2024) and he stays out of their way AS HE HIMSELF SAYS HE DOES, he can appear successful. Otherwise, (2022 and 2023), he dithers and the team falls apart.
@@philipwebb960 “Appear successful” ? Good lord, you people and your agendas amaze me. I’m 6’4” but I’m not tall I just “appear” that way. 🤣🤣🤣. So Pittman gets no credit for putting the staff together and running the team? He made an admittedly big mistake hiring Enos and everyone thought he should be fired. Why doesn’t he get the same credit for making a great hire as he gets hate for a bad one. I mean he’s already totaled last seasons wins and we very easily could be 6-0 right now if not for some bad mistakes on the field. Not in the game planning or play calling. I think it’s pretty amazing to turn a team around this completely in one offseason.
I give them credit for pulling this game off, but lets be honest. If that UAB game continued to fall apart and the Hogs would have lost, then Sam would be gone and one of the Coordinators would now be Acting HC.
@@joshuacarr1720 yep, and if we had 3 less turnovers this season we’d be 6-0 and you still wouldn’t give Sam any credit. Also if Ifs and buts were candy and nuts we’d all have a merry Christmas. 🤣
Great job, you two make a good combo.
Courtney spitting facts: Also Bama got an overdue piece of humble pie
Absolutely awesome win. They guys just outmuscled Tennessee. WPS!
Great show as always! Mike getting feisty at the end 😂 Courtney you’re always a sweetheart! I’d go with Courtney and go with LSU over Ole Miss. would be better to face a LSU squad high off a win than a pissed off one. And poor poor South Carolina about to face the wrath of Bama!

This has been very exciting year of football 🏈 for Arkansas,
In my opinion hardest hitting team in the country!!!!

This was a great "feel good" game when we Arkansas fans needed it. I thank the coaches and players for it.

I was wondering the same thing. He’s always on every single comment section telling us how Pittman needs to be fired, glad he’s shut up now
Arguably the best hog football win was the 3OT win at LSU in 2007. That season itself is considered the greatest season all time
Don't forget Texas in '65. #1 vs #2. CBS game of the week. Went ahead by 20, fell behind 24-20, won 27-24!

Time was runnig out and they let singleten score Play back the replay and you will see tenn stepping back and letting him score
That’s still looks good for Arkansas though. They let us score so they could get the ball back with plenty of time. Had they not, Arkansas likely runs the clock down to about 20 seconds and then kicked a FG that could’ve iced it.

When your running back....starting running back....doesn't fumble the damn ball....you.can win.

Don't listen to these people they are trying to hurt Arkansas program every week pulling against their own team just to prove a point!
Stupid selfish people!
Yes, how wrong of those stupid, selfish people to want the Arkansas athletic teams to play better!
Mike, how can winning the National Championship not be in your top 5 of all time best wins?!
He did the 1964 game against Nebraska in the cotton bowl won us the sports writers national championship. The '64 game against Texas secured us a place in that Cotton bowl.
The defense wore out at the end of last season from being on the field too much. You dont win many with a gassed D.
Tennese is overated and will loose to LSU
The last time I checked $250,000 was real money. So does that mean that we have $250,000 less and NIL money if money is going to be squandered like this they will not be getting any donations from me.
The 250,000 is paid by the university and right now, the university cannot pay players. However, that will be changing soon.
Petrino and T Will will pull some more good players out of the portal and next year they will bump heads for a SECC.
When Saban was coaching Bama no player in his right mind would have ever openly challenged the chain of command. If he had done so his career would’ve been over at Bama.
