re: Why do people think Arkansas can play LSU close?

The line for this game is definitely unexpected, I think most of us Arkansas fans think LSU is the better roster by a mile and we look terrible as of late. LSU is also better coached and has everything to play for, while Arkansas is coming off a downer of a loss to Freeze.

But anyone that's paid attention to the series over the years knows, this exact setup/scenario is when Arkansas pulls some crazy shite out of the hat and somehow does the unthinkable. Even when Arkansas is having a disappointing season and looks like a mess, they somehow play a nailbiter of a game and often win against LSU.

It's just one of those classic SEC matchups that has some crazy scenarios and WTF plays every couple years, a matchup that seems to stand alone outside of the season both teams are having
