Picking on big brother rarely works out well. Not that it has mattered much this season who Arkansas, glowering little man it may be, has tried to put in its place. The Razorbacks are one loss away from a third 2-10 overall season in the last seven years after Saturday’s beat down at the hands of their older sibling Texas, 52-37.
Make no mistake, Arkansas and Texas are brothers. And like some of those familial dynamics, the smaller sibling so badly wants to be like its elder that when it can’t, it lashes out. Thus the intense hatred in the Natural State for all things burnt orange.
