Arkansas Coach John L. Smith Apparently Thinks The Razorbacks Play In Alabama
Another day, another something to embarrass Arkansas football coach John L. Smith. The Razorbacks have lost three in a row, Smith is broke, and here he is giving a rah-rah speech to the Little Rock Touchdown Club earlier today, only to mistake what state he's even talking about.

Giants 41, Bucs 34: The Game In Two GIFs
This wound up being a wild one—32 points scored in the fourth quarter alone, 25 of those by the Giants, who trailed 24-13 at the half. This was a fantasy football wet dream, too. Eli threw for over 500 yards and three touchdowns (three interceptions, though); 199 of those yards went to Nicks....

Arkansas's Drop Out Of The Top 25 Is Second Only To Michigan's After The Appalachian State Debacle
Remember about 17 hours ago, when the Arkansas Razorbacks lost to 30-point underdog Louisiana-Monroe in Little Rock?
