Here's the deal in Arkansas since we are considered to be in the South.

If Ouachita Baptist wins the national championship in division II football, it might make a quick reference on the local news and stuck on the back page of the sports section of the statewide paper.

If UCA wins the FCS national championship it might get a 30 second spot on the local news and a spot in the corner of the back page of the statewide newspaper that will wrongly call it the division II championship.

If Arkansas State gets into a bowl game you get a 30 minute special on the local channels, headlines in the local statewide newspaper...and that's for a low level bowl.

If Arkansas gets into a bowl game it's neverending wall to wall coverage on all media accounts...even for a low level bowl. I mean they play Kansas in Memphis soon....and it's continual talk.

Football level is king in this state. Nattys don't mean anything unless you are at least at the bowl level..and even low level bowl games are a big deal.
