Arkansas Getting Votes?

I think they stand up to the "eyeball test" better than Florida State or even TCU. I could see them beating Notre Dame or Marshall. They played basically even against Texas A&M and Alabama. They physically match up well and hold their own. Besides, the voters are just voting for which coach has the hottest wife on instagram anyway.

So Arkansas wins their first SEC game in two years and snaps a 17 game conference losing streak, moves to 1-5 in the conference and they are now getting votes in the AP Poll??? Wow. I know there is some major SEC bias out there but this takes the cake. Something is fishy with that.

Arkansas writers who have heard the rumblings to the north about a former Iowa player and current Hog HC?

So I'd consider giving them the benefit of the doubt about lower and midtier teams but seriously. They'd most likely have to "fairly easily" get past Wiscy or Nebby (which may not mean much after Saturday). I'm sorry, but despite their win which suddenly changed the complexion of there program in conference play the past 2 years. I don't see them being "easily" better then either Wiscy or Nebby.

To be able to simply hang around with the best teams doesn't mean anything when you're still not winning.

Did you watch Arkansas cruise past LSU on Saturday? The same LSU team that handled Wisconsin earlier this year. Every team in the SEC West is better than the any team in the B10 West. It's a fact, the conferences aren't even comparable.

Transitive property doesn't work. Indiana won at SEC East leader Missouri, but can't win a single B1G game.

You're correct transitive property doesn't work, but to be fair Indiana is on their 3rd string QB who was once behind a LB on the QB depth chart.

Minor details LOL, people need to stop thinking anybody in the B10 West is that good. Look at the non-conf results, Minnesota got crushed by TCU, we lost to ******* Iowa St, Northwestern lost to Cal and Northern Illinois, Nebraska almost lost to McNeese St. I'm sure we'll get to play a couple SEC teams in bowl games and we'll have the chance to watch the B10 get manhandled as usual.
