Top seven worst Saturdays to have gotten married in front of Hogs fans this century
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Back in the early 2000s, my wife and I had an important decision to make. We could get married on one of two weekends in September and squeeze in a quick honeymoon before I had to report back to work the following Monday.
Arkansas-Texas mattered before my sport consciousness, so it's a so-called rivalry that doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. However, most of my family grew up on the old Southwest Conference days back when people of color weren't allowed to play, which allowed Daryl Royal and Frank Broyles to dominate college football with minuscule athletes like Jerry Jones.
Not everyone has the flexibility to plan around the Razorback to avoid family drama. So, with that in mind, which weekends of this century would have been the worst seven possible dates to plan a wedding that will include a room full of Hog fans on the guest list?This one has to be included and has already been addressed. As always, Texas was overrated, but not nearly by as much as the Longhorns usually are.
The Hogs had three 100+ rushers in Jones, Cedric Cobbs and Fred Talley, while fullback Mark Pierce had three touchdowns to balance out Manning's 312 yards and six touchdowns with no interceptions.The game that ended the three-game losing streak that eventually followed that win over Texas in Austin was a seven-overtime barn burner.
The SEC West champion Hogs went into the final weekend of the regular season against No. 9 LSU in War Memoria Stadium at 10-1 and ranked No. 5 in the country. Mitch Mustain threw for a paltry 87 yards against Auburn, but Darren McFadden and Felix Jones combined for 249 yards rushing.McFadden ran for 206 yards and three touchdowns, then threw for a touchdown on top of it. Jones and Peyton Hillis combined for another 169 yards rushing, including a pair of touchdowns.
