How to Watch-Listen to Razorbacks against Blazers today

Upsets already happening across college football and Sam Pittman has to make his team fully aware to take game seriously.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Domination is what everyone expects when Arkansas plays host to an inferior program today at Razorback Stadium. Arkansas fans want nothing less. Hogs coaches expect improvement over last week which should produce a big win.

What about the players? Well, they plan on scoring 70 and blanking the Blazers. They realize, however, that UAB is far superior to UAPB. Against UA(Pitiful)B, the Hogs dominated in historical fashion, scoring on all 10 possessions to prevail 70-0.

Now the Razorbacks just have to look at Notre Dame’s loss to Northern Illinois last week to full understand what can happen. If the Fighting Irish can get kicked through Touchdown Jesus, the Razorbacks could stumble in the hills of Fayetteville.

It’s happened with just about every coach that has ever guided Arkansas football. Not often (except for a couple of years everyone wants to forget) and probably shouldn’t this year, but there is enough recent memory to get their attention.

Nobody expected the Hogs to lose to Liberty a couple of years ago. But they did.

This Blazers team isn’t as good as that Flames team Hugh Freeze had, but the Hogs are dealing with some injuries in the offensive line that has raised questions about pass protection.

On the other side of the ball, there are questions about getting pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

There are some storylines for this game.
