The much-anticipated Snake Bowl is Saturday, though Arkansas fans need to calm down. Bobby Petrino still has time to quit and take the Cowboys job.
Or he might slink up to Michigan State's cardiac ward and try to convince Mark Dantonio to retire so he can coach the Spartans. Failing that, Petrino will write "Feed only bacon-cheeseburgers" on Dantonio's medical chart.
Nick Saban wouldn't even do that, if only because he's already marked the Spartans off his Jilt list. Now he's King of the Crimson Tide, which travels to Fayetteville for a big SEC hoedown this week.
The Hog Nation hasn't been this excited since Richard Nixon came to town for the No. 1 showdown with Texas in 1969. It's fitting since Saban is viewed in Nixonian terms when it comes to trustworthiness.
Trust me, compared to Petrino, Saban is Abraham Lincoln. On second thought, don't trust me. Trust almost anyone who's been exposed to Petrino's wily ways the past 20 years.
