Couldn't help but notice you left off that Arkie has a +1 Turnover Margin.


We're currently (notice I said CURRENTLY) at +15.


That's a hint.

the numbers show that LSU isn’t as good as everybody makes them out to be.


How about we mention the #'s of Arkansas having to come from behind to beat Ole Miss, Vanderbilt and A&M. Oh yeah and getting beat by Bama by 24 points .

Mean while LSU thrashed Oregon on a neutral site, beat Alabama in TTown (yes the same Bama that slaughtered Arky) and is currently undefeated.

Oh yeah and the average margin of LSU is 36.5-10.7 while Arkansas is 38.8-21.5 so LSU is scoring 2.3 less a game while giving up 10.8 less per game. Anyone that watches college football AT ALL knows that LSU schedule has been at least twice as hard as Arky's and we've looked much, much better.

Honestly which victory is LSU's biggest win of the year
1. #3 ranked (2nd best team in the country) Bama at Bama
2. Killing #4 ranked Oregon at a Neutral site (when we were shorthanded).

You take your pick and after you do let me know about Arkansas's is it

1. Beating the 5-5 A&M by 4
2. The mighty Ole Miss (that was just beat by LaTech 27-7) by 5
3. Vanderbilt by 3
4. Or a Marcus Lattimore-less USCe

The arrogance and down right stupidity of Arkansas fan's amazes me. Dear god I can't wait for LSU to absolutely destroy you morons in Death Valley.

Why must I be from Kenner? It's just astonishing you would try and belittle after you spouted off that ridiculous diatribe... Is it Because I made fun of your blatantly ridiculous ranking system and methodology? I'm actually from Baton Rouge, however, with this stupid shite you just compiled you must be from Chalmette.

Again, take strength of schedule into account which you are not.

You are incorrect. If there was a team ranked #1 in all offensive and defensive categories, simple logic dictates that team would also be ranked #1 overall. Also, this is an average of 4 categories, not 2.


OK, I will bite. You have this ranking.

Passing, Rushing, Scoring, Defense

A person could in theory like a Houston, have a number 1 ranked offense without a rushing attack.

SO there rankings would be (1, 100, 10, and 1) You would have the number 1 ranked offensive team and defensive team with a 112 score and a 28th ranking.

Simple logic would indicate your little project is tarded, you should have used it.

I think if you rank the opponents against each other it will be come a little more Obvious.

LSU best wins - Oregon, Bama, WVA. What does Arky have to stack up against those three?

Common opponents AU and Tenn left out.

See how that looks and get back to us.

not statistically valid. rankings are against different opponents and what you end up with is garbage, esp. by averaging them all out. i think the won/loss and strength of schedule based on bcs rankings does a much better job of this. having said that, both teams rank very high and it should be a good game. no one can deny that you have a better offense, particuarly your passing offense, and lsu has the better defense. lsu also has more quality wins against better opponents and lsu is playing at home. these are relevent facts and stats and while it should be a close game, y'all are gonna have to get damn lucky to win it.

The fact that Alabama ripped Arky a new one in T-Town tells me all I need to know.

after the Bama game, I was gald there were not many bumps. But in my opinion, i hope every damn one of those 500 get bumped and I hope all of the a-hole Arkie fans that have been unbearable the Past year get as much fun putting up with LSU fans as we have Putting up with the arkie crap.
