Okay, now I’m feeling much better. I was really worried about this game. Like, REALLY worried. Losing to Memphis is bad enough, but backing that up with a loss to the consensus preseason pick for the worst team in the SEC West would have been catastrophic to my psyche. It’s bad enough the hell I catch from my friends about our ridiculous-looking mascot. I don’t need more fuel for the fire.
While I realize we are still in rebuilding mode and a loss against Arkansas wouldn’t have meant much in the grand scheme of things, it still feels good.
