Funny...CFN never rates us high, yet our matchups apparently rank among the best each week.
CFN did the Top 10 college football games for every week... here we are...
Sept. 13 - #4. Arkansas at Texas - At the very least, there will be some great games on Classic Sports between these two.
Sept. 27 - #6. Arkansas at Alabama
Oct. 11 - # 8. Auburn at Arkansas
Oct. 18 - # 9. Florida at Arkansas
That's 4 games in the Top 10 nationally within the first 2 months

This reminds me, and sorry to get off topic here, but I can't for the life of me understand why the Ole Miss-Arkansas game wasn't televised last season after the 7OT barn-burner we had in '01 that made history. It became an instant classic on E$PN Classic, and was the talk of the country two seasons ago.
While Ole Miss and Arkansas' rivalry doesn't really compare to Ark-Texa$$ or Ole Miss-MSU, it certainly is a rivalry and if it wasn't before it surely became one in 2001.

You're right 10MAN. UA-UM was a rivalry even before SEC times. In fact, the first Razorback game I ever saw live was in Jackson in 1989 when Anthony Cooney picked off Josh Darnell in the end zone (UA 24, UM 17). And of ALL the games last year that I thought we'd get on TV, I figured 7OTs would at least give us a repeat on ESPN, who named it the #2 greatest sporting event of the year, behind Game 7 of the D'Backs-Yankees WS.
I have two copies of that game..one is the ESPN version, the other the version done by ARSN. Still get anxious at moments of that game...wore me completely out that night.
