Forget the records, forget the betting lines, forget the storylines. Arkansas and Texas A&M is almost always a close game. We’d be saying that even if Arkansas was 0-4 like most expected the Hogs would be at this point. It’s definitely true now that we know the Hogs have a decent team.
Texas A&M (3-1) has a decent team too. More than decent, actually. Texas A&M is paying Jimbo Fisher a lot of money ($7.5 million per year) to build an SEC West power, so when A&M took its third straight whuppin’ at the hands of Alabama, there was grumbling about the return on investment.
