Arkansas gets out-recruited but not out-played. The Razorback Basketball team looks for their first road win… again. Eli Manning proves that winning is about more than legacy. Do Mizzou and the Aggies know what they have gotten themselves into? I don’t think so.

We talk about Drew Brees, and why the Saints should be considered contenders for the Super Bowl. We discuss the nauseating love/hype for Matt Barkley and USC heading into next season.

Today on the show we talk about the recent ruling to give Ohio State a one year bowl ban and loss of scholarships and how the NCAA didn’t do nearly enough to punish the program, how it is essentially an indication of corruption in the Bowl system and the NCAA in general, and the hypocritical era of college football. Tim Tebow now has John Elway’s backing, but no one else. Jim Harbaugh proved he should be considered an elite coach in the making. How does the Razorback Basketball program get fans to believe again and go to the games? We talk with Kurt Helin of NBC Sports, Otis Kirk of 24/7 Sports, and John Engleman of KFSM Channel 5.

Arkansas has had a tumultuous past few days as Offensive Coordinator Garrick McGee took the head coaching job at UAB, John L Smith took the head coaching position at Weber State, and today defensive coordinator Willy Robinson resigned.
