I realize you're saying this to a Bama fan, but how does this not apply to your own team if you fall to Arkansas?

According to the TD BCS Guru, no loss will keep LSU out of the BCSNC

Alabama had their shot to beat #1 LSU. The context here is assuming we are trying to place a team opposite #1 LSU in the BCSCG.

If Arkansas beats LSU, then we all have to regroup and figure out how things should play out. But yes, you are correct in saying that - if by chance LSU does indeed lose to Arkansas - and this prevents LSU from going to Atlanta and/or the BCSCG, we will indeed would have had our shot.

Nonetheless, it is a tad different than the context of picking a team to face undefeated LSU in the BCSCG.

Well, because there would be more to it than just head to head genius.

LSU's schedule would've been harder than both Arky and Bama.

Arkansas' wins (if they beat LSU) in order of Quality:
LSU
USCe @home
Auburn @home
A&M (Neutral)
Rest of the SEC and you had 3 shite OOC games

LSU's wins (if they lose to Arky) in order of Quality:
@ Bama (top 5)
Oregon (top 5/Neutral)
@WVU
Auburn
UF
Rest of the SEC and 2 shitty OOC games

LSU will have better wins than Arky and the losses between LSU, BAMA and Arky will cancel out at best for Arky.

In the end, LSU will have earned it more. PERIOD!
