    he's like Wolverine, he just regenerates. In 2007, he broke his right collarbone. In 2008, he broke his right ankle. In 2009, he re-broke his right ankle. In early 2010, he broke his left collarbone (during the Razorbacks’ Red-White game). then what does he do in late 2010? obliterates the SEC with 101.69 yards/rushing a game over 13 games (including 147 ypg over his last 7 games)

    the 5th injury is a break to his left ankle in August 2011... he'll have had a whole year to regenerate by the time the 2012 season starts

    Eventually his bones will give out and that'll be the story of him. There's more to life than football, and that cat is one bad injury away from being forced to hang his cleats up forever.

    Pretty sure the talking heads have had FSU near the top the last couple of years during the preseason, only for them to falter in the weak ass ACC.

    I know a guy who writes for the Houston chronicle and he said Knile Davis was a freak in High school. I'm not dis agreeing with the selection but I have heard he has a hard time staying healthy which I'm pretty sure that was a big concern for him and his family to take a chance at coming back another year at Arkansas. This is the year he's going to do everything in his power to get recognition from the NFL scouts. I can see why they have him so high up there. If Arkansas can establish a running game they are going to be a team to recon with...

    That hasn't been the case with Arkansas the last four years under Petrino.

    If Arkansas can protect their QB, they can be competitive. If you disrupt their timing, they are as beatable as any of the middle tier SEC teams. Perhaps even more so.

    The only defense found in Arkansas is from fans trying to justify their feelings on keeping Petrino instead of firing him.

    Ark. lost a bunch of players. The three top Wr's and the left side of the OL. On the other side of the ball, a good DE in Bequette, two Lb'ers and a good safety in Thomas. LSU put up 41 pts. on a game where Les could have kept his foot on the gas. As with every move of Petrino, lets see how much damage is done once hes out.
