Are you talking about 07 when they won the MNC, but we still beat them?


You know, it's so funny that this is y'alls go-to line so you can convince yourself you're on the same level as LSU, but none of you ever mention that when you won the west in 2006, LSU beat you.

I think Trindon Holiday is still outrunning Arkansas kickoff team.

So you are talking about 2011, the only time this has happened since we've been in this league...

Why do I need to mention it? We were the best team in the west and had played down to LSU after we already had the west won.

I fully agree that Arkansas at its best can beat LSU or Bama at their best. I just don't think they can win the West when both of those programs are rocking along like they are now.


I see what you are saying now, I think it can happen, but will be extremely difficult. Bama is the biggest obstacle. As long as Miles is at LSU, anything can happen with them.

Well using the same logic, we were the best team in the country when you beat us. Trophy bruh.

bullshite. You played hard that game thinking you still had an outside shot at the national championship. You never play "down" when you are in the BCS hunt. Damn, you've had some lame excuses, but this one takes the whole taco.

You played hard


We had 19 yards of passing offense.

We choked away the SEC-C game the following week, then won in every area but the scoreboard of the bowl game, typical for the coaching staff we had in place then.

It wouldn't have mattered if we beat Florida and LSU, it would have been a Michigan/OSU rematch for the title. The thumping SC put on us the first week took away any shot of a BCS MNC...

We might do it this year, or might not - but I don't have any doubt that as long as CBP and staff are here, we are in contention every year from now on. Also, I don't think we are through building yet, we've come a long ways but still have some quality depth to build on defense and OL especially.
It's coming.


CBP can't recruit and that's why Arky will never be elite w/ him as HC.

well LSU and Alabama will BOTH be at their peaking best when we play them this year so if we win of them then we would have beaten them at their best.

Do elite teams have games that they get shut out and fail to cross midfield

Yes, I'm sure that's what the coaching staff preached in the locker room pre-game and emphasized the lack of importance of the LSU game.

Actually, all they preached about was having already won the West, going to Atlanta, and a "Great Bowl". Then going out there and "playing hard" for the "hometown crowd"....

Agreed...Arkansas was on the winning end of 15 of the 45 games played vs LSU before 2000!!

On a bright note...in the 15 times they actually were able to beat LSU in that 106 year period previous to Y2K..they won exactly Zero bowl games!!

It's just bad timing that when we are at new heights while a couple other teams from our division alone are also firing on all cylinders.



enjoy each game.

dont fret about the future.

(or, keep obsessing about LSU and Bama and suffer presently AND during the game AND after the game)

of the two ways to go, I recommend, enjoy the games, each game, and dont fret about the future.

Clearly Ark is good enough to win if everything falls into place.
Just dont hold your breath.
