Well, if you don't know it by now, the Arkansas Razorbacks got knocked from their #3 ranking and back down to Earth on Saturday when the #1 LSU Tigers manhandled them, 41-17, in Baton Rouge. The Hogs finished the regular season on a losing note; however, they still finished the season with a record of 10-2, 6-2 in conference play. With 10 wins this season, the Razorbacks recorded consecutive 10-win seasons for the first time since the 1988-89 seasons and for only the third time in school history. Bobby Petrino, like him or not (personally I love him), has proven himself to be exactly the type of coach this program needs, in my opinion. Since the beginning of the 2010 season, the Hogs are 20-5, not bad considering most of the fan base had grown used to losing 5 games in an average season. It is clear that the Razorbacks have come miles with Petrino at the helm. Now all the program needs to do is go out there and get the 4 and 5 star recruits on defense. The program seems to have established itself as a staple in the top 10 to top 15 and could very well be on the verge of taking the next step toward consistently competing at a high level on the national stage. Despite the recent set back, it still is truly a great time to be an Arkansas Razorback fan. Wooooo Pig Sooie!
