Klatt: Arkansas might be the worst team in the country

4

The Arkansas Razorbacks have not received much love from the national media this season. Why would they?

This team is bad. Real bad… A narrow win over Portland State, plus an embarrassing loss to San Jose State helps give validation to those who wish to make snarky comments about the Hogs.

You know the phrase “all publicity is good publicity.” Not sure if that applies here.

In an interview with Colin Cowherd on The Herd Wednesday, Fox Sports’s Joel Klatt roasted Chad Morris’ football team.

 

Razorback fans had fun with this quote. Sarcasm and apathy is flowing through the veins of Hog fanatics all across the United States. Here are some of the better responses to Klatt’s harsh words.

Klatt has bashed SEC teams before. He’s quite notorious for it actually. I don’t think Arkansas is the worst team in the country; that title belongs to Rutgers.

Beat Mississippi State at home this weekend so loudmouths like Klatt won’t have anything to chirp about for a while. Lose… and continue to face the pain that you are the laughingstock of the SEC. Not a flattering thought.

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas was ranked No. 22 in the first AP Top 25 of the season, the Associated Press announced this morning.

This marks the first time the Hogs have been ranked in the AP Top 25 since 2015, and the first time the Razorbacks have started a season ranked in the AP Top 25 since 2002. 22 is also Arkansas’ highest ranking since January 9, 2011.

The Razorbacks are coming off of a 22-win season in 2018-19, the most wins for the program since the 2011-12 season.

The Hogs also add talented transfer Amber Ramirez to the lineup after she was forced to sit out last season.
