Unfortunately, Rutgers' unbeaten record will come to an end in Arkansas

The Rutgers football team takes a 3-0 record into Fayetteville Saturday night for a game against the Arkansas Razorbacks of the SEC, which you can hear on the new talk radio, 1450 WCTC and WCTCAM.com, the Voice of the Scarlet Knights, beginning at 5:30 with the pre-game. Even though the Hogs are 1-2 and coming off a 52-0 loss to number-one Alabama last week and an upset loss to Louisiana-Monroe two weeks ago, they're still a seven-point favorite over RU. That's because of A) home field advantage, B) a lack of respect for RU's opponents and C) a reminder that Arkansas was number-eight in the nation earlier in the season. Add in the fact that the Hogs' number-one quarterback Tyler Wilson has been given clearance to play after missing the "Bama game with a concussion. So, I think that the Razorbacks will finally play up to their level of talent while Rutgers and sophomore quarterback Gary Nova may get knocked back a peg by 72,000 partisan fans. So I'm picking RU to lose at Arkansas 28-24.
