Arkansas: Pre-Game in Fayetteville!
After a night filled with severe thunderstorms, the skies have cleared and the sun is shining as we are 30 minutes away from today's SEC West showdown between the Arkansas Razorbacks and Alabama.
Both teams are busy with drills right now, as the Hogs are lined up stretching, while the Tide are working drills in three seperate stations. The cheerleaders have circled the stadium with Tusk, while the Razorback Marching Band has circled the stadium, playing the fight song twice. This is a huge day for the band, as they are receiving the Sudler Trophy today at halftime. Considered the "Heisman of college band trophies", the Sudler Tophy is given annually to the best band in America, which this year belongs right here in Fayetteville!
The student section is already boisterous and ready to go, as fans are beginning to leave their tailgates and file into Razorback Stadium for what should be an outstanding game of football. Sitting next to me in the press box are representatives from the Capital One Bowl in Orlando, which immediately tells you the importance of the game, and the quality of the teams that are taking the field today.
We're almost set to go...it's game day in Arkansas!
