Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson couldn't help but have a little fun at the expense of the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Speaking at the Little Rock Touchdown Club, Anderson shared a story about his 4-2 Red Wolves visiting an elementary school to read to a second-grade class full of Razorback fans.

"Immediately, there is Razorbacks posted everywhere," he said. "I'm in Jonesboro. And in my backyard, there Razorback pics all over the place. We do our reading. A couple of times I say to the teacher, 'You know, it would be nice to have a couple of Red Wolves around here.'

"She said, 'Look, I'm sorry. I'm a Razorback. Matter of fact, my whole class are Razorbacks.' I said, 'Really? Is that right?' She said, 'Yes, I'll show you. Everybody in the class who is a Razorback, please raise your hand.'

"Well, there is about 30 kids in this class. Everybody but one raises their hand, like they've been trained to do so.

"There's one little girl who doesn't raise her hand. It kind of made my heart big. I asked her her name and her name is Jenny. I asked, 'Are you not a Razorback?' She said, 'No, I'm a Red Wolf.' That made me feel even better. The teacher wasn't very fond of that and asked, 'Why are you a Red Wolf?'

Her reply?

"My mom is a Red Wolf and my dad is a Red Wolf, so I'm a Red Wolf. The teacher said, 'You don't have to be exactly what your parents are. You can do your own thing. What if they were both losers.'

"Well, then I'd be a Razorback."

Arkansas is coming off a 52-20 loss to No. 19 Auburn on Saturday night.

Bret Bielema is now 27-31 overall and 10-26 in the SEC after the school's third straight blowout loss.

The defeat was Arkansas' (2-5, 0-4 SEC) seventh in its last nine games dating back to last season, keeping the Razorbacks at the bottom of the SEC's West Division.

The Hogs head to Ole Miss (3-4, 1-3) this week, starting a stretch of four SEC contests out of five games to close out the season.
