Tyrann Mathieu made his name—and his Honey Badger moniker—on defense, but it was this 92-yard punt return touchdown in the second quarter of LSU's matchup with the Arkansas Razorbacks that has been the play of the game thus far. [CBS] More »

In a game proving to already be more interesting than the LSU-Alabama "game of the year" three weeks ago, the third-ranked Arkansas Razorbacks have a 14-0 lead on LSU in the second quarter courtesy this wild play, only the seventh turnover all season for the LSU Tigers. Nothing makes a man feel older than the emphasis Verne Lundquist places on the "junior" in Alonzo Highsmith, Jr.'s name. [CBS] More »

There really are no words to describe Arkansas Razorback Jarius Wright's catch in the first half tonight against Tennessee, except "concentration." Even though he can't even see the ball for half of the play, he seems to know exactly where it is and how to come down with it cleanly. This is sick. More »

Arkansas was down 35-17 to Texas A&M at the half. They took a 42-38 lead with 1:41 left. Then, when they stopped the Aggies on a fourth and two, this luscious fan ate it up. Woo Pig Sooie! More »

When a national columnist is a guest on your radio show and he proceeds to call the local college quarterback a prostitute, and his his former coach a pimp, then you've got two things, my friend: Ratings gold, and a genuine douchebag. Welcome back to our stage, ladies and gentlemen, Gregg Doyel, who appeared recently on ARN's "The Sports Animals" radio show with hosts Shawn Arnell and Wally Hall. Doyel came off as borderline insane during the interview — something he's quite good at — and concluded things with an impressive meltdown and an abrupt phone hangup. Let's review. More »

1. Record Breaker. New coach John Pelphrey set the record for most wins by a first year head coach at Arkansas with 20 when the Hogs beat Auburn at home to finish the regular season. That isn't a minor feat when you realize two of the best coaches in history coached at Arkansas, Eddie Sutton and Nolan Richardson. They had 17 and 12 wins in their first seasons, respectively. The record was held by Eugene Lambert who led his first team to a 19-7 record during the 1942-43 season. Pelphrey also broke the 100-win barrier with that victory. More »

It has to be kind of boring for a college football phenom, when the bowl games are over, your college career is done and you have nothing to do until the Draft workouts begin. It has to make a man antsy. So we sympathize with Darren McFadden, who got himself arrested early this morning. More »

Anyone who has gone to a university with a prominent sports program can tell you about the experience of seeing one of your player driving a vehicle that you wouldn't think they'd be able to afford. We can all justify it in our brains, hey, they just saved up for it, but we all know better. But do we report it? More »

As much as I'd like to discuss yesterday's crazy college game, I fear I wouldn't do it any justice. Whoa, whoa, wait a second. Where have I heard that line before? Oh, that's right ... the last time LSU lost a triple OT football game! (Creepy, eh? I must have like cool anti-Tiger powers or something. I could probably kick Battle Cat's ass.) Anyway, let's see what the Internets are saying about Arkansas' remarkable 50-48 triple-overtime win over No. 1 LSU ... More »

Yesterday, in a story which Deadspin suspiciously omitted, ESPN reported that Darren McFadden was declaring for the NFL after his upcoming junior season, so sayeth his momma after a chat with Pat Forde. Because that was such a news scoop. After all, rarely do exciting, electric football players ever forgo their senior season for the paltry millions the NFL feebly offers. But now McFadden's momma, Mini Muhammad, is setting the record straight. More »

We're not sure the true historic nature of what's going on at the University of Arkansas is being adequately appreciated. Basically, a bunch of ticked-off message board fans are doing everything they can to take down the athletic department of their university ... and they're doing a damned good job of it. More »
]]> http://deadspin.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=255155&view=rss&microfeed=true So you know the crazed Razorbacks message board fan who went through the impressive measure of FOIAing coach Houston Nutt's cellphone records, discovering that he had been text-messaging a local female reporter? Well, his quest to rid Arkansas of Nutt is not over; as you can see in this video, he's now accosting Nutt at practice. We are so glad we're not Houston Nutt right now. More »

So you know last week, when all that information about Arkansas coach Houston Nutt came out thanks to a resourceful fan? Well, even though national media has been strangely loathe to report on it — "Only WE can file federal FOIAs!" — the news has apparently made it back to the Nutt home, because Diana Nutt, the coach's wife. wrote a long, rambling letter in Houston's defense.

1. The Name. The team was originally known as the Arkansas Cardinals until 1909, when football coach Hugo Bezdek declared that his team played like a bunch of "wild band of razorback hogs." The nickname stuck and became official before the 1910 season. The "hog call" of "Woo Pig Sooey!" came around several years later. The name has remained unique nearly 100 years later, as no other major college team has named itself after a feral pig. More »

In the summer of 1977, school mascot Big Red III escaped from an animal exhibit near Eureka Springs. He ravaged the countryside before an irate farmer gunned him down. The following mascot, Ragnar, killed a coyote, a 450-pound domestic pig and seven rattlesnakes. Ragnar died in 1978 of unknown causes. My guess: indigestion. More »
