We don't each week, MY Sunday SEC takeaways...
ARKANSAS: Got a tough road win. Liked the plan on offense. Changed QB reads. Lot of formations. Extra bodies in protection. Leaned on run. 22 made some big time cuts, esp late. QB saved them a lot. His legs are crazy good. Just avoiding catastrophies. Made AU pay. LT struggled. C & LG played well. Struggled vs man coverage. Massive catch for 6. 40 & 4 played well. 10 was flying around. DBs really good in run/screen support. DC had nice plan. Mixed in new things. Got takeaways.
Hunter Woodhall just set a T62 400m American Record with a time of 46.09 at the ParaOlympic Trials.
He also set the T62 100m American record running 10.75.
Hunter Woodhall is the definition of LET NOTHING STOP YOU and is on the hunt for Gold at the Olympics.

Some scoop on the @AggieBaseball search:
* A&M made a very furious run ($$) for Tony Vitello. It shot its shot, but TV stayed put and loyal to a program that has given him the keys to the castle.
* A&M also went after UVA's Brian O'Connor, but very dififcult to get him out of CVil
* Link Jarrett was never an option for the #Aggies. Link loves FSU and went back with Martin's blessing. There was no way he was turning his back on the #Noles.
* Skip Johnson, as I've alluded to, was never offered the job. He and Tom Walter were taken off the list when the Earley option arose.
* The surprise for me is that A&M did not take a hard look at Alabama's Rob Vaughn. I think Vaughn is a superstar and wouldv'e fit in great in College Station.
I'll have a story wrapping up the entire week.
Ryder is on FIRE!
@RyderHelfrick (@RazorbackBSB) hits his second homer in as many days to extend our lead in the second!
Harbor Hawks: 1
'Caps: 5

Yes, super small sample size, but that’s a .364/.417/.727 slash and 1.144 OPS. #ProHogs
The St. Louis Cardinals offer our condolences to the family and friends of Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda who sadly passed away earlier this evening at the age 86.
Orlando brought his love for life and the game of baseball to St. Louis in 1966, and enjoyed an MVP season the following year while helping the "El Birdos" Cardinals to a World Series title in 1967.
“Cha-Cha”, who remained a fan-favorite among Cardinals fans well beyond his three seasons playing for St. Louis, will long be remembered for his distinguished playing career, but more importantly for the cheerful joy he shared with others.
