I think USC sweeping Arkansas in Columbia broke their spirit and demoralized them. The Hogs were ranked in the top 15 in the nation at the time, but I guess we exposed them a bit.....

Wasn't that the first series of the year in conference? And weren't the games all close for the most part? Seems I remember maybe 1 that got out of hand late. At any rate, it wasnt that series that did that, as arkansas followed that up with a sweep of their own at Auburn.

I found it. The only thing I see is MSU finished with a better conference record and appears to have played a better conference schedule. Both teams look similiar that year too.

Both teams swept Tennessee. Both teams took 2 of 3 from Ole Miss. Both teams same record vs Alabama. LSU won a game vs UGA while MSU was swept. LSU on the other hand was swept by Florida, Arkansas and Vandy of which did not happen to MSU. MSU also swept Auburn which LSU did not. MSU also played USC that year which LSU did not so call it anyway you want. I doubt Ron Polk had a deciding vote.

What stands out is LSU played a 3 game series with Cal State and early in the season and won twice 7-6 and swept them the last day winning 10-2. So there you have it.
