Liberty Bowl

Petrino's Pigs are playing ECU in the Liberty Bowl on ESPN. It's early and the score is still 0-0. Who do you expect to win? I'll be keeping an eye on this game. Look for some updates in the comments section.

P.S. How do you call the Hogs? Click on the title of this post.

0-0 as we near the end of the 1st quarter. Arkansas has the ball at their own 40. It is 2nd and 9 for the Razorbacks. Greg Childs just caught a 20 yard pass from Ryan Mallett. Hogs are on the run.

Rob said...

Good run by Dennis Johnson. Gained 8 on 1st and 15. 1st quarter is over and we've got... another commercial break.

Rob said...

After a loss of yardage, Arkansas calls T.O. The Razorbacks will be facing 3rd and 15 when play resumes.

Hogs gained 0 yards. They'll punt.

Rob said...

ECU has the ball on the Pirate 4. 2nd and 7. RB Ruffin stuffed my Malcolm Shepard. 3rd and 5.

Rob said...

1st down to the 17. Darryl Freeney with the reception for ECU. Pinckney hit him on the sidelines for a big gain.

Rob said...

I'm steppin' out for a bit. If somebody scores, let me know. Or, I'll tell you about it, well after the fact. LOL. Go Hogs and LET'S GO SEC!

Dadgummit. Before I could post this comment, ECU got into the endzone. They hit a big pass play to the 4. Then, a TD run by somebody surnamed Lindsay. What a drive. 13 plays 99 yards. Once again, dadgummit!

Man up, Arkansas. Man up!!
See ya'll after awhile. Go Hogs.

Rob said...

Wish I didn't have to type this, but it's 10-0 ECU at the half. Arkansas has got to get it going.

With Sloth Carolina's loss to UConn already in the books, the SEC needs Petrino's Pigs to beat ECU. It's time to call the hogs. Soo-weii or whatever. Let's go Hogs!

After a FG, Arkansas also got a pick 6. The game is tied at 10 with 8:57 left in 3rd.

Rob said...

Somehow, I missed a score by ECU. With 5:16 left in 3rd, Arkansas tied the game again at 17. Great pass by Mallett to Wright.

Rob said...

ECU to punt with 3:19 left in 3rd. Arkansas' Armhurst partially blocked the kick. As a result, the Pigs will start from their own 46.

A few plays later, QB Mallett gets stopped just short of the 1st down. Arkansas punts on 4th and short. FC called for at 13. ECU ball.

Rob said...

Game still tied after Arkansas misses a FG. 10:17 left in 4th.

Rob said...

7:04 to go ECU will have ball on the Pirate 18. Horrible punt took a Hog bounce.

Rob said...

HB Dominique Lindsay gains 14 for ECU.

Rob said...

Another 1st down for ECU. Pirates nearing midfield. Hogs D better step it up. 5:04 left.

Rob said...

Lindsay gets 7. 3rd and short for ECU. 4th down after a great play from the Arkansas D. Pirates punt. 3:33 left and Pigs will have ball near the Razorback 20 following commercial break. I feel a game winning drive on the horizon.

Rob said...

Correction. Arkansas has ball at their own 11. Definitely not near their 20. My bad. Incomplete pass brings up 2nd and 10.

Rob said...

Hogs are going to punt after gaining just 6 yards on that posession. ECU should have good field position with about 2:34 remaining. Pirates start from Arkansas 41.

Rob said...

HB Lindsay gains 8 on 1st down.

Rob said...

Lindsay gets 5 more. 1st down ECU on the Hogs 30.

Rob said...

Lindsay gets 2. 1:20 left in game. ECU on Arkansas 28. DEFENSE!

Rob said...

3rd & 8 after incomplete pass . Lindsay gains 6, but runs out of bounds. 4th and 2 and here comes Ben Hartman. 39 yard FG attempt doinks off upright!!

Rob said...

Hogs from their own 21. 59 seconds remaining.

Rob said...

UGLY. A couple of ugly plays by Arkansas. 3rd and 10 for Hogs.

Rob said...

Pass nearly picked off. 4th and 10. Hogs will punt. ECU has all 3 TO remaining. 44 seconds left. Terrible punt. ECU starts at 50.

Rob said...

34 seconds left. Arkansas calls TO. 1st and 10 for ECU at midfield. Hogs better play some D!

Rob said...

Incomplete pass. 2nd and 10 with 29 seconds left.

Rob said...

Pinkney hits Bodenheimer. Gain of about 9. WR got out of bounds. 20 seconds left. QB sneak gets 1st down.

Rob said...

15 seconds left.

Rob said...

Pinkney runs to 30 with 9 seconds left. 2nd and 3, but that don't matter. ECU from Shotgun. Pinkney to the 22. 3 seconds left. ECU will call TO, then attempt game winning FG. Hartman has already missed twice. Hope he doinks it again. Let's go Hogs!

Rob said...

Here's the kick. It is... (drum roll) a Timeout by Arkansas!

Rob said...

Hartman's kick from 39 yards is NO GOOD!! Free football from the Liberty Bowl!

Rob said...

Arkansas wins toss and will play D.

Rob said...

If ya ain't watching, turn your TV to ESPN.

Rob said...

ECU gets 5 on 1st down.

Rob said...

HB Lindsay gains 2 on 2nd down.

Rob said...

3rd and 2 for ECU.

Rob said...

Incomplete pass. Hartman (1-4) to attempt another FG. He's gonna miss.

Rob said...

Yes! He did miss from 36 yards out. Arkansas needs just a FG to win.

Rob said...

Screen pass gains little yardage for Arkansas.

Rob said...

HB Green gains 4. 3rd and 4.

Rob said...

Childs drops a potential game winning reception. Here we go again. Can Tejada win it for Arkansas? All he has to do is make a 37 yard FG and the game is over. ECU calls time.

Rob said...

The kick from Tejada is GOOD! Arkansas wins 20-17. How bout them Hogs?!!

Rob said...

Pigtrino wins the Liberty Bowl and SEC goes 2 for 3 on the day.

Good night, ya'll.
