FAYETTEVILLE — The Arkansas Razorbacks must hope Friday’s game at War Memorial Stadium doesn’t trigger a next phase of the Great Stadium Debate.
As the Hogs wallow 0-18 in the SEC since their last three 2017 league games, Little Rock may demand they play all their football home games in Fayetteville while Fayetteville may demand the Razorbacks play all their football in Little Rock.
Gallows humor hyperbole, that. For nothing unites the State of Arkansas like the Razorbacks. They unite Arkansas especially when they win. But though putting increasingly less fans in the stands at Reynolds Razorback Stadium on the University of Arkansas campus in Fayetteville as this 2-9, 0-7 in the SEC season wanes and challenged to draw at War Memorial with a rainy Friday forecast for Little Rock closing the campaign against the 5-6, 2-5 in the SEC Missouri Tigers, the state still unites in spirit wishing better for their Hogs.
