Talk about taking some crap, I lived in Ft. Smith at the time and worked with some Okies who were still smartin' over the '78 Orange (my Dad included). Not a fun time... I won't be taking much stuff over this one though: the only guy who'd even think about it is a 'Noles fan...;^) I'm not worried about Petrino but, man, he did look uncomfortable in the booth, didn't he?

I saw on a post where the Hogs lost the 1987 Orange Bowl by 34 points. So I guess I did witness a worse effort. I just hope I can put this one out of memory, given enough time, like I did that Orange Bowl. Correction. I saw on a post where the Hogs lost the 1987 Orange Bowl by 34 points.

I've been watching Hog bowl games since the Sugar Bowl under Holtz when I was about eight, and this is one of the worst (no, THE) worst performances I can remember. I take some consolation in the idea that the people associated with Hog losses in bowl games are now all out the door. Broyles is gone (he didn't have a winning record in bowl games), Nutt is gone (dido), and Nutt's staff is gone, except for two coaches, I think. Hopefully with Long and Petrino we can start a tradition of ringing in the New Year in grander fashion. I feel for the team (some) right now, but I mostly feel for the Arkansas fans in the stands who could only cheer. The team could have done something about the results. Those Arkansans in the stands paid out a whole lot of money for this experience, and they got crap in return. And being an expat myself, I can look forward to hearing crap from everyone who knows I am a hog fan, and everyone does know it! Uggh. Looking forward to your basketball posts! Haha. PLEASE, may we have a good season there! Kevin Guys, you are right.
