Best five games of Week 5

When I heard Dana Holgorsen makes $2.3 million a year at West Virginia with a buyout of only $2 million, I immediately took this as bad news for Razorback football. Considering that the University of Arkansas is ready to pay $4 million a year on the next coach if necessary and saved $18 million by firing Petrino (sorry, Robert Shields), Holgorsen jumps out as a flashy and affordable hire who would appease fans with his reputation for putting points on the board. The problem is that he also strikes me as the kind of coach who would run his motorcycle off the road three years later. While Arkansas again didn't warrant making the pool this week, there are four coaches involved in games who are on the potential hire list for the Hogs. I wouldn't really want the guy from Baylor either, but I'll be saying "Hey sic 'em, Bears" on Saturday if it helps prevent Holgorsen from ending up in Fayetteville.
