Ask Mike: Arkansas' Underdog Mindset & Is the Hogs' secondary big but slow?

[@cuz129]

Love you two! Great chemistry and nobody knows Hogs better than Mike. I'm just a fan, I don't know football, but I know you do, so I listen to you.

Great episode as always!

This is alwsys great.WPS!!!

[@calvinjones3978]

I'm glad to hear others hate predictions. And, Mike is so right in that none of us know how good (or not so good) our team is. I'm sooo tired of talking season, but this happens every year. I'm ready to get things going on the field and actually see about how good our team is. Appreciate your work as always, y'all. Keep up the great work!

[@rzrbckredblood]

I've made this point on other videos, but I still maintain...people are seriously underestimating how determined Petrino is to fix things with the people of Arkansas and how much trouble he's gonna be for defenses when ALL he has worry about is offense. That still depends on what the players do of course, but it's a serious X-factor that I'm not hearing anybody take into consideration.

63-0 Arkansas wins big

[@Blake_Hawgfan24]

It’s like they are trying to make the War Memorial games not have ticket sales. I mean they move it to a Thursday and it’s in the August heat . I mean those 2 things alone probably cut the ticket sales by 1/4th.

Mike is right, no one is going to give money to a 4-8 team, flip that to 8-4 and there's no money problem whatsoever

[@matthewyoder6975]

The head official said that the two minute timeout does not add another commercial break. There are still the same amount of commercial breaks. This one just makes a clean break in the game so officials know when special rules start applying to the game at the 2 minute mark.

[@CourtneyMimsSports]

You are right. I just took a look at his statement. Seems a little weird though cause every game I watched this weekend, it went to commercial on the two-minute warning hence our thought process of “oh, they just wanted another commercial stuck in.” I do understand it can help game flow, but I also don’t think the network minds getting to take to another commercial either. If they didn’t want to add another commercial, why take to commercial there?? Keep it on the game, I’d be perfectly happy with that.

[@matthewyoder6975]

@@CourtneyMimsSports the point is that they aren't taking more commercial breaks. Same amount as last year. So it doesn't matter if they stay at the game during the two minute timeout vs a regular timeout later on.

[@CourtneyMimsSports]

@@matthewyoder6975 I get that! But it’s about perception too. Everyone thought the same thing this weekend that’s why the athletic had to go a whole investigation into it 😅 personally, I wouldn’t cut to commercial there so people realized it wasn’t about ad breaks, I mean even the announcers thought it was because they wanted an extra commercial or two lol

[@matthewyoder6975]

@@CourtneyMimsSports Ya perception is big. When the two minute timeout was announced as a change in college football, they should have made this issue clear.

SO TV SHORTENED THE GAME SO THEY COULD ADD ADVERTISING DOLLARS. TV IS RUINING SPORTS.

First off, why are you yelling? lol, TV brought billions of dollars and hundreds of millions of viewers into Sports, but I see you’re just another sad, emotional thinker who shuns facts. With this mentality, I bet you just love child grapist (the G is silent) DonOLD Trump. 😂

With all of this NIL garbage we can't afford to lose money anymore plus recruits can't come in official visits there from what I hear.

[@LJfootball14]

Watching teams all over the country specifically the SEC and watching some practices and listening to multiple reporters, I think Arkansas is really lacking in talent across the entire team. I think maybe 6-6 is a ceiling but likely it is 5-7.

[@richardbaker_0086]

We could beat 90% of the teams in the country. Just not in the SEC.

I am no coach but i said Enos was a terrible hire. I was right…just ask Pittman! Lol

[@JamesFreeman-jm5xz]

Man Pitman is just a overrated o-line coach trying to be a head coach. A bad one if that. Pitman will probably be fired at the end of the season. I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it. He just acts lost as a head coach. He should have never been hired. Them idiot's on the hill never get the football coach right. The worst ever being Chad Morris. What a clown show he was. I will never drink the colada again after last season of a dumpster fire.

If we want a really great football team we are going to have to get NIL money. It has become a pay up or shut up thing.

[@elmerfudpucker5387]

Arkansas is the road team vs A&M this year so they aren't losing two home games by playing in Arlington and Little Rock, just the one. But playing in Little Rock is ridiculous. It's like if you had a million dollar home but you go stay in a cheap rental a couple months out of the year.

[@finchborat]

There's nothing wrong with Hog games in LR. Let people from the rest of AR have a Hog game of their own.

[@slytlygufy]

The State needs to do a major renovation on WMS..new everything, more restrooms, new grass, not turf, but yes, the Hogs need to play an SEC game there, for tradition and the rest of the State, plus Louisiana people who are Hog fans. I'm old enough to remember when WMS was bigger than Razorback and Razorback didn't have lights . Besides, the crowd at WMS is always fired up, and given a quality game is loud as heck.

[@elmerfudpucker5387]

None of the homer media would actually bet any of their own money on Arkansas having a winning football season. They just think they are gaining fans favor by refusing to be critical of Pittman and the football program. Otis has made a career out of propping up the football program and coaches and trying to convince fans that every recruit they get is great. Only the most gullible fans take him seriously. Media outside the state look at Ark football as a joke and the only thing positive they say is that Pittman is likeable. Nobody ever compliments his ability as a head coach because everyone knows he shouldn't be a head coach.

[@thegardenhutch5833]

Can you link me an article by a reputable national media personality that says Pittman shouldn’t be a head coach. Every thing I’ve seen has praised Coach Pittman for pulling the Hogs out of the Morris debacle
