$110 Million Buys You A 6-7 SEC Record

Robbie Neiswanger of The Morning News writes about the on-campus frustrations of the Razorbacks since Reynolds Razorback Stadium was renovated in 2001.

Arkansas, which has experienced more frustration than elation in big games on-campus lately, will try to buck the trend when it plays its most-anticipated home game of the season against No. 21 Auburn on Saturday. The Hogs are 14-8 in Razorback Stadium since the stadium's expansion in 2001 and, after its 28-24 loss to Vanderbilt here last month, are 6-7 in Southeastern Conference games during that stretch. They're also 1-3 against ranked teams.

Some results have been mind-boggling, like the 29-17 loss against Kentucky in 2002. Others have been heart-breaking, like the 22-20 loss against seventh-ranked Texas last September. Arkansas hasn't enjoyed the home-field advantage it envisioned, but the Razorbacks hope their recent on-campus frustrations will come to an end Saturday.

Arkansas didn't have much of a problem during Nutt's first three seasons on campus.

In fact, the Razorbacks won their first 15 home games -- in Little Rock and Fayetteville -- and were 17-2 from 1998-2000. That included an 8-2 mark in Fayetteville. Arkansas' dominance in Little Rock hasn't faded -- it is 9-1 there from 2001 to 2005 -- but the Hogs haven't experienced the same success on campus.
