Heard he will be ready. I think they held him out vs Ole Miss to insure that he wouldn't have any more set-backs.
Well, I didn't hear it via an official release--heard it on talk radio at some point earlier this week. ...and that was the speculation (that he would be ready and was held out as a precaution). With the way Miles keeps injuries close to the vest, it's nearly impossible to know for certain if that's clearly the way it is... But I would imagine that's a pretty good explaination.
I don't think Beckwith will play...just a feeling. If he does play, he won't be full speed. However, the D should be fine without him. We all know about how great McFadden is, but Monk is the one who really scares me. If the piggies win, it'll be because Monk has a huge game.
We've clearly got the secondary that can handle any Arkansas passing offense. I hope Pelini focuses on McFadden on Friday. Stop him and Arkansas is going to be as done as the turkey I'm frying tomorrow.
