Hello Dallas, Bye Bye Houston.

The Hogs are Cotton Bowl bound after crushing LSU's National Championship hopes in a 50-48 triple-overtime win in Baton Rouge.

Against pretty much the best defense team in the nation, the Razorbacks put up 513 yards total, with 388 of those on the ground in the "Battle for the Boot."

The LSU Tigers have not allowed a 100 yard rusher all season.
Darren McFadden had 206. And 3 touchdowns. And one TD throw.

What's a guy got to do to win a Heisman around here?
As amazing as he was, it was a team effort. LSU had no answer to the triumvirate of McFadden-Jones-Hillis. Along with D-Mac's 3 touchdowns, Hillis had 3, and Jones was crucial in OT, running in the final 2-point conversion.

Poor wikkle tigers.
Lose their title hopes, and most likely their coach to the Wolverines.

Speaking of...Sorry Houston. You've pulled out the biggest win of your Arkansas career, but you're still out. All that this proves is your inconsistency. I wish you well, but (as a UA student and Razorback fan) I'm not sorry to see you go. Well done, but...holla' atcha boy.

But that's for later. Until then, I'll see you guys at the Cotton Bowl.

The BCS is Dead? It's not even December

Bloggers across the landscape of the internet are all declaring the BCS to be a bunk system that sucks and it's gonna die this year etc. Okay, Everyone already knew that. All the presidents, coaches, athletic directors, players, fans, bloggers, and BCS conference commissioners are all very aware of that fact, but you can't say it's dead when the season is just barely halfway through.

Everyone claims that Ohio St. is gonna run the table with their ridiculously easy schedule... Is Ohio St. better than USC? No! USC lost to Stanford... Ohio St. can lose to anyone... We are well aware that this season is the season of upsets. This is the season where we realized that great teams won't lose to other teams that aren't quite as great, they will lose to the crap teams.

So before you claim the BCS is dead, just wait until the end of the season and see if you agree with who is in the national championship game... if you do, then be happy. Oh, and the NCAA champion is pretty much decided every year in Atlanta. The SEC champion is the National Champion just like the state champion in high school football in Texas is the National Champion.
