The talk around the national media water cooler for next year seems to be the rise of the Razorbacks. While competing in college football's most difficult division these Hogs impressively held their own this past season after winning a dismal seven games total in the two seasons prior. The Fayetteville feeling is riding high with coach Bret Bielema as he enters his third year here. The running game is poised to be one of the nation's best with running back Jonathan Williams back for his senior campaign. The expectations now are more than what another 6-6 season can fulfill. So there is a little more pressure moving in. No one is quite sure if Arkansas is ready to wrestle a divisional title away from one of the perennial SEC top ten schools just yet, but don't be surprised when they take a few of them out of the national title equation.
