Hogs’ bowl destination leads to ‘what could’ve been’ talk

Those words do not exactly make Arkansas fans jump for joy, but instead provokes the “could’ve, should’ve, would’ve” that has surrounded the 2015 Razorbacks.

The one-point loss to Mississippi State may be the biggest “what if?” That dropped the Hogs to 5-3 in the SEC along with LSU, Georgia and Tennessee, and left Ole Miss alone at 6-2 behind Alabama and Florida.

Yes, the Toledo and Texas Tech losses allowed three teams Arkansas beat (Tennessee, Ole Miss and LSU) to be ranked in the final CFP top 25 while Bret Bielema’s squad is on the outside looking in, but the conference standings are big when determining bowl destinations.
