The Arkansas Razorbacks’ football game with the Missouri Tigers at Columbia, Mo., has been rescheduled for Dec. 5, according to a media release from the Southeastern Conference.

“Arkansas fans should take this season-opening blowout with a grain of salt. It might have even been a little fool’s gold.”

With football off the table for the week, basketball takes center stage with the men’s and women’s Razorbacks opening each of their seasons Wednesday.

The SEC has postponed the Arkansas-Missouri game scheduled for Saturday at Columbia, Mo. until Dec. 12.

The Razorbacks have not beaten the Tigers since defeating them back-to-back in 2015 and 2016, not coincidentally that’s during the time Pittman served as Bret Bielema’s offensive line coach.

If the Razorbacks win their next two games, Arkansas’ season will be considered an unmitigated success.

Arkansas basketball fans got a taste of what’s to come from their Razorbacks this season.

Gaining a victory over the highly ranked and regarded Gators would be a monumental step for a program which more than a few felt would go winless this season.

Pittman has the Razorbacks playing with passion once again, which is gratifying to all Hog fans who suffered through the last two seasons.

Saturday’s game is huge for the Razorbacks from a fan’s view because it is only one of three realistic chances for another victory left this season.

Franks gives the Hogs a chance to win right now against the toughest schedule any Razorback quarterback has ever faced in the school’s history.

While the Hogs are off to a surprising 2-2 start in this Covid-19 infected and affected season, Arkansas’ running game has yet to live up to expectations.

Sam Pittman has the important task of grounding his players in the reality as they prepare to play No. 8 Texas A&M.

Optimism is running high among the Razorback Nation, but the Hogs must keep improving, particularly on offense and special teams if this truly is to be a comeback season for the program.

The Razorbacks are playing like, well, Razorbacks again, and it’s a sight to behold.

The Razorbacks are reportedly beat up on defense particularly at linebacker, which does not bode well against the nation’s most prolific offense.

Pittman said in his Zoom press conference Monday that he won’t address the bad call this week with the team. His and their sights will be set only on the Rebels.

Pittman said the Razorbacks have put last week’s game to bed and have been full-steam ahead in preparing for their trip to Auburn.

It’s OK to be excited about the Razorbacks’ success without worrying about what this Saturday will bring for a few more days.
