The emotional rollercoaster
Arkansas fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Arkansas took a 10-34 loss to Missouri on Halloween and slid to 3-5, though much of the fanbase never saw the finish. The turning point came early, when the Razorbacks fumbled the ball backwards for a Missouri touchdown and the remotes came out. One fan "checked out after the fumble touchdown" and asked if the season was over yet; another switched off and chose to "assume we still suck." The rest blamed coaching hires and referees. On a night built for horror, the scariest part was how few stuck around.

“I’ll be honest, when we fumbled it backwards like 30 yards to go down 10-0 I turned this off. So idk for sure what happened but I’m gonna assume we still suck.”

“Silverfraud did worse than his predecessors at Memphis in a weaker conference (no more UCF) And it's not like his predecessors have been anything but shit, themselves. Petrino should have been the backup plan.”

“Nah. Any amount of goodwill remaining for Petrino evaporated when he was named interim and won 0 games.”
