With no Arkansas Razorbacks this weekend, slate provides fans with plenty of quality alternative viewing options
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – With no Razorback game to pass the time this weekend and basketball season still several weeks away, Arkansas fans need a slate of good college football games to keep them occupied. Fortunately, there appear to be at least four that will do just that.Why Arkansas fans are having to be up and about their wits this early to catch such a big game is dumbfounding. There is no excuse for this to be on in the morning hours across most of the country.
If Georgia comes out and loses, along with teams like LSU and Texas A&M dropping the ball, the win total required for Arkansas to get in will drift far to high for it to be possible even in the most optimistic of circumstances..This is a game that could bite ESPN and the Fox Sports Network in the backside.
Because players don't hit much anymore in the preseason workouts, their bodies aren't where they need to be to hold up to the brutality of a college football game. As a result, a lot of injuries happen in the first couple of weeks of the season. Perhaps the best reason for Razorback fans to watch is to see how much progress Mike Elko has made toward undoing the damage done to the program by his overpriced predecessor, Jimbo Fisher. A win would make quite a statement, but then again, it's Notre Dame, perhaps the only team to rival Texas across the past decade or so for being the most overhyped.
