Sorry, but I'm not feelin' enough hate for the pigs around here. You gotta hate those guys. Don't you remember Matt Jones' (the albino tootsie roll) pass in the closing seconds that kept us out of the championship game. Nutt's program hangs around like weeds in a garden. You can't get rid of 'em but if you don't punk 'em regularly, before long the sumbitches'll think they belong and gone without an azzwhipping long enough, they'll try to take over. The way I see it, the only thing good to come outta Arkansas was Johnny Cash. Other than that, it's a wasteland that serves no purpose other than making the trip to Wrigley Field longer and providing habitat for a bunch of snuffies that don't have any business around decent folk. The "Arkansas problem" could probably best be solved with a suitable application of high explosives.:hihi: Just tryin' to get the game face on.:grin:
You just made Paula Jones cry :cry: and Bear Bryant spin in his grave. Not to mention making Houston Nutt chew on his fingernails. :redface:
Oh, I have been to the last 5 arkansas games with Tiger band...I rememebr each one vividly... 2000 - 14-3 Loss @ ARK in 31 degree rain. Josh Booty throws a pick for a TD on his 1st or 3rd pass and we never recovered. 2001 - 41-38 Win in TS with a little scare near the end. We had to play the reschuled Auburn game the next week for the title 2002 - 21-20 gutwrenching loss @ ARK when, with 34 seconds and NO timeouts ARK comes down the field and scores in front of my face. 2003 - 55-24 Stomping in TS. nothing but a buttwhopping 2004 - 43-14 win @Ark. First loss for ARK in Little Rock. That one in 2000 was the WORST experience ever. And their fans are strange with that pig suuuuey thing. It sounds like a bunch ghosts flying around.
The last time we drove through Arkansas, my husband commented that "Arkansas is just in the way." And the people we saw in a McDonalds there made guests on the Jerry Springer show look well bred and cultured. :shock: The state motto of Arkansas - "Teeth Optional".
True story. I walked into a gas station Monday morning to buy a Little Debbies. The store is owned by Arkansas fans. The guy behind the counter had his Arky t-shirt on, of course. I Tiger Baited him, of course. Well, I've known this guy for awhile. He starts telling me how we are going to lose this game and that Nutt has finally gotten this team on a roll. He stated that the new QB they are playing will tear LSU's secondary apart and that their little running back will put up 200 yards against our D. I just about knocked over the ICEE machine I was laughing so hard. I politely informed him that he was living in a dream world and walked out. Damn arkansas fans, they're coming out of the woodwork around here.
Being a North Louisiana boy, I'm pickin' up what you're layin' down. They do have a way or putting a blister on you. Kinda like having a little brother. Constant aggravation, and most of the time you wish they were dead, but good to have around when you feel like kickin' some azz. :lol:
The 1999 LSU game was my favorite for a couple of reasons: (1) It was my then 4 year old son's first LSU game. All of the fans around us were aware of it and kept him pumped up. At the end of the second quarter he falls asleep and I hold him sleeping on my shoulder. Midway through halftime I can't hold him any longer and much to the disappointment of the fans around us we leave. My son wakes up before we leave the stadium and inquires about where we are going. Long story short he ain't leaving and wants to go back to the seats. Upon returning to our seats for the rest of the game, the fans give him a round of applause; (2) LSU wins 35 - 10 ; and (3) Rohan Davey enters the game at quarterback with 13:48 left in the second quarter. Rohan put on a show similiar to how he played against Illinois in the 2001 Sugar Bowl. He ended up 10-12-0-224. Here is the scoring summary. As you can see, Rohan made some "pretty good" throws that day: Scoring Summary: 2nd 14:00 ARKANSAS - Tony Dodson 26 yd field goal, 5-44 1:06, ARKANSAS 3 - LSU 0 10:23 LSU - Domanick Davis 11 yd run (John Corbello kick), 2-28 0:27, ARKANSAS 3 - LSU 7 04:15 LSU - Reggie Robinson 67 yd pass from Rohan Davey (John Corbello kick), 3-72 1:28, ARKANSAS 3 - LSU 14 00:26 LSU - Rondell Mealey 48 yd pass from Rohan Davey (John Corbello kick), 2-54 0:27, ARKANSAS 3 - LSU 21 3rd 12:49 LSU - Rondell Mealey 20 yd run (John Corbello kick), 4-64 2:11, ARKANSAS 3 - LSU 28 10:12 ARKANSAS - J.D. Davenport 15 yd pass from Clint Stoerner (Tony Dodson kick), 6-65 2:37, ARKANSAS 10 - LSU 28 4th 09:18 LSU - Reggie Robinson 60 yd pass from Rohan Davey (John Corbello kick), 3-52 1:30, ARKANSAS 10 - LSU 35 What a game. By the way, my son has only missed one home game since, Georgia 2003. He remained at home to go to a friend's birthday party because the kid didn't have many friends and my son was afraid no one would show. Well their was a huge turnout for the party. My son is still po'd that he missed the game !
I totally agree they are more of a nuisance than anything. They talk a lot of crap and are real visible prior to the game but once they've been taken behind the woodshed for the azz whoopin they disappear quickly. Houston Nutt is the Dale Brown of college football. He can motivate his team to play way above their heads for one game. But this game means too much to the Tigers to overlook Arkansas. This will be a lunch pail like game for LSU. Come to work, take care of business and on to the SEC Championship Game. It's time to knock the Dick in the dirt!!!
