Great..... that'll be annoying to hear during NIU vs. Arkansas. I'll be happy when Alabama or the other SEC powerhouses just destroy Arkansas and shut that chant up lol
The local weatherman, trust me I can be 99.9% right!

They get destroyed every year and they still say it.

Three words: BIG. SKY. CONFERENCE! That is all. :D
Finally upgraded to Expressway after, what, seven or so years on this forum? Took a dadgum while, but, I made it!

Put the best team in that itty bitty conference against a mediocre SEC or Big 12 schedule and see how far they get.  It's easy to beat up against terrible teams, but they couldn't handle the weekly grind of the SEC.

*Oh, brother.* That was meant for sarcasm in case you just begun to notice.

Then again, not a single BSC team (be it Montana, E. Washington, etc.) would match up against even a mediocre SEC team, even if a BSC team did beat an SEC team. I mean, App State slaughtered Michigan being the first D1 school to do so, but App State under the SEC's shadows would get clobbered.

And yes, Woo Pig Sooie is obnoxious as hell, but I'm glad I'm not an Arkansas fan.

I'm not sure what Woo Pig Sooie even means... Is it the sound Arkansas fans make when their team gets repeatedly clobbered?

We won 10 games in 2010 and 11 in 2011.  The last couple of years have been painful.

I moved to Arkansas in 2013 and painful is right. I pull for Arkansas to win games, it's good for business

If Bilema can turn the team around, Arkansas has a fighting chance to win.

It's supposed to be a take on a hog call. Brooklyn Dodgers pitcher Clyde "Pea Ridge" Day (from Pea Ridge, Arkansas) used to make an Arkansas-style hog call from the pitcher's mound after striking out an opposing batter. He blew out his arm in the early 1930s and, depressed about it, slit his own throat a few years later.
"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."
—Olaf Kolzig, as quoted in the Washington Times on March 28, 2003,
commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.

Wisconsin Badgers fans are just happy that Bielema gets to make that ridiculous chant nowadays. We relish every loss by Arkansas, because of the way he left Wisconsin. #karma

That was such a dick move to leave your team before a bowl game.  Doesn't matter if it's a who-cares bowl, it's still disrespectful.  More so than running up the score on all those teams in the Russell Wilson year.
I am becoming increasingly disillusioned with college football as time goes by.  The wrong people are getting rich off of it.

Our NIU coaches did that twice (Jerry Kill for Minnesota before the Humanitarian Bowl game, Dave Dorean for NC State before the Orange Bowl game)

Our current one though is now 12-3 over a season and 2 bowl games

Arkansas may be the 20th-best team in the nation and they won't win an SEC game. Well, they might beat LSU this year in Fayetteville.
