Written by Ryan Wright Twitter: @HogManInLA Any college football team wishing to have a successful program, especially in the Deep South, must recruit the state of Louisiana, or at least attempt the difficult task.

Written by Ryan Wright Twitter: @HogManInLA There was a bitter-sweet takeaway from Arkansas’ 54-46 four-overtime win over Auburn on Saturday.
