Sequels never quite as good as originals

FAYETTEVILLE -- Misery on Markham.

Make that Miseries on Markham: The Sequels.

The Razorbacks now wallow 1-5 at War Memorial Stadium on Little Rock's Markham Ave. since Houston Nutt then Bobby Petrino last coached there. Each coached teams performing finals seconds upsets over LSU in 2002 and 2008. Both were called Miracle on Markham at Arkansas' home away from its Fayetteville campus home.

The latest, and now still to be determined whether it will wield the worst or second worst impact among the Miseries on Markham, comes with Bret Bielema's nationally No. 18 Razorbacks losing, 16-12 Saturday to the 21-point underdogs Toledo Rockets of the Mid-American Conference.
