Wow. That article is a piece of garbage. Is it that difficult to look at the final stats and scoring summary before writing about a game? Pathetic...

450 yards to star running back Darren McFadden and Arkansas. I know McFadden had a good game but I doubt he had 450 yards

Alabama leaped into the poll this week after rallying from 21 points down in the third quarte We were down by 21?

"the victory that came when Wilson hit Matt Caddell for a 3-yard touchdown pass with 37 seconds left did seem to create some swagger among the Razorbacks."
4 yards, not 3
14 not 37 seconds left
Why would losing create swagger among the Razorbacks?

Poor job of fact-checking and proofreading.

'Course one never knows, but the "swagger" back in the Razorbacks? :)
Do you think all the budgets for proof-readers are cut?

Hey, talk about your errors...I was sitting in Subway today for lunch reading this free magazine that is published here in Birmingham. While the article about last weeks' game against Arky was good, the writer, TWICE, mentioned someone else other than Matt Caddell as having caught the game winning will. I can't remember the name that was mentioned, but that person is not even on our team, nor are they on Arkansas Team.

??????????

The most disturbing part about that article to me is this--

AP NEWS
The Associated Press News Service

That piece of garbage wasn't written by some CBS hack, but an AP hack. Things have really gone down-hill when an AP article has that many factual inaccuracies.

Remember back in the good ole days when journalists did their homework, had their facts straight, and reported objectively?



Sorry, that must have been the ether typing there. sorry.
And stay away from ether kids!

I actually thought there were only 8 seconds remaining when the TD was scored. That is what was on the clock when we kicked off.
