ESPN Football Power Index not kind to Arkansas

Will Arkansas endure another painful season under Chad Morris or is this the turning point for years to come?

That is the question many are asking heading into Year 2 of this era. The fans’ level of pessimism is at a breaking point following a horrific 2-10 year.

Whelp, national analysts and others aren’t pulling punches either. Most you hear from think Arkansas is going to fall short of a bowl appearance. The few “high” on the hogs have them as a fringe bowl team…

According to ESPN.com’s Football Power Index (FPI), the Razorbacks don’t stand much of a chance in many games this year. Football is a game played on the field not on paper, we know that. Still, it’s hard to find optimism concerning the Arkansas football team in 2019.

This is just another stab at the Razorbacks assuming the team won’t respond after their worst statistical year in program history. Will they? We’ll find out in 18 days.
