Didn't seem to matter when the game was for the Sugar Bowl on both sides.
I'd say since Miles has been at LSU, that was the only Arkansas that was 'better' than the LSU team they played.
2005-2007 LSU was more talented, and all were close games.
2008-2009 the gap closed. I think they were about equal.
As I said, I think the 2010 Arkansas team was better.
2011 LSU was just phenomenal. And Arkansas was a great team, unfortunately for them.
2012-2013 the wheels came off, but both were close games.

I'd take the 2006-7 Arkansas teams here, but I agree with the rest.

The discrepancy didn't exist until Saban came to bama.
Losing several in a row also starts to get into the player's heads, and we haven't just been beaten, we've been abused the last two years.
We're so emotionally fragile vs bama that any odd bounce of the ball in bama's favor throws us into a "here we go again" loser mentality.
