What do you think of the Texas and Arkansas game? It is a rival between old SWC foes. Should be great indeed!

Yes indeed! They have had some great close games in the past such as in 1962 when Texas won 7 to 3 in the last 36 seconds and during the game made a great goal line fumbe. In 1964 Arkansas won a classic 14 to 13 as Texas missed a last minute two point conversion. In 1965 Arkansas won 27 to 24 as Texas gave them two tds by fumbles. In 1969 Texas makes a fourth quarter fourth down long pass to set up the winning touchdown and wins 15 to 14.

A treat indeed.

I am worried about this one they could very easily sneak up on the Texas young secondary :(

I know because that is our weak points as was shown in the first 2 games. The thing is that usually as the season progresses and they get experience they get better and should be great. But this is still only the third game.

Phil, Arkansas QB Casey Dick was 22 of 34 for 323 yards and 2 touchdowns against a Louisiana Monroe team who beat Alabama last year!
