Let's hope JJ doesn't decide to steal Sonny to replace Chad.
Your next door neighbor, and Chad's boss, Jerry Jones is trying to rectify this by giving Arkansas a home game in Texas every other year.
Contact your influential Aggie friends and tell them to "knock it off"!
I have been complaining about this for years to no avail. Aggies want to play in Dallas but don't want to play at Ford anymore.

Word is when the contract expires, this year or next, it will go back to home and away. However, do expect Arkansas to play a Dallas game every year. I wish we would get on this before Houston does. Houston already got them in BB.

Yeah, fun. Like that same joke your Dad tells over, and over, and over again because he thinks it's hilarious. And It was, maybe the first few hundred times you heard it....

footballdad I wonder if Chad was on a full tilt boogie winning streak the last two years at Arkansas if Stallion would be in hiding like he is now? NOT!

Revel in the subplots and politics. Rail against the perceived injustices and delight in revenge. Our world is the entire landscape of college football. And not all of it is negative. We empathized with Arky State over the tragic loss of he coaches wife and even some people had issues with that.
Read what you want. Post what you want.
Hate Chad, ridicule Chad, love Chad. Go ahead
I don't usually agree with abu much, but that was a good post abu!
I need to sit down....

If you somehow thought I was claiming to be a better fan because I could now care less about him, then I seriously underestimated just how butt hurt you still are about Chad leaving.
I’m not butt hurt. I couldn’t care less about how you feel about Chad.

Of course not. He so loved his boy Chad because they're two arrogant, self-righteous peas in a pod. Karma has a way of putting those in their place.

Would be awesome to play Arkansas although I doubt they’d schedule us while Chad is there (which may only be for a few more months). I’d offer a home and home with the Dallas game at the Cotton Bowl during the State Fair and give them 1/2 the gate.

Offer them a neutral site game every year at the Cotton Bowl during the Fair with them getting 3/4 of the gate. We would make out like bandits.

The first SMU game I went to after I arrived in Dallas was the 1999 SMU Arkansas game at the cotton bowl. I think we lost 20-0. 50k people there, almost all (it seemed) hogs.

No. You don't get it. A neutral site gets them a home game in Texas every other year. That means DFW high school recruits on their sideline! We are about making sure Arkansas never wins a conference championship, and they can't do it without Texas players and Texas players aren't going to go there if mom and dad can't easily watch them play.
Don't be as stupid as the Aggies! Schedule the Ags at a neutral site. Screw Arkansas.

I'm fairly confident we would be favored against the Hogs by 14+ at this point
