It started innocently enough.
A summer blog by Barry Trammel, long-time and much-respected columnist for the Daily Oklahoman in Oklahoma City.
Summers for columnists can be dryer than an Arizona drought, and sometimes you write things that you don't really have a lot of passion about.
Barry asked the question, could Arkansas State University beat the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville this season?
He ran through some of the numbers and how ASU is being picked, again, to win the Sun Belt Conference West Division, while Arkansas is being picked to finish the season.
