I personally don't think it makes any sense to rank LSU ahead of Arkansas, but even all the computer polls I've seen have LSU ahead of Arkansas, so it's a little easier for me to accept LSU's higher ranking in the human polls.

Nonetheless, I wouldn't trade Arkansas's 10-2 regular season, capped off with a win over LSU and trip to the Sugar Bowl, for a loss to LSU and a win in the Cotton Bowl.

ANYWAYS... Can we end this stale argument and get back to the OP?

Which offense in the SEC will come closest to matching Arkansas's firepower?

Probably because the win over LSU was the highlight of Arky's season

I'm sure Alabama will once again put up 30+ PPG and 400 YPG. They've done it every year under OC Jim McElwain.

well either way y'all have 3 losses. i would rather lsu have lost to arkansas and beat a&m in the cotton bowl than beat arkansas and lose to ohio state in the sugar, although lsu wouldn't have lost a sugar bowl. but regardless, i'd rather end a season w/ a bowl win than win a normal regular season game and lose my bowl game.

Of course you wouldn't. Beating LSU is the highlight in any year for the Pigs. Its the highest goal you set every season. Do that, and like you said, you're happy.

Arky in the mind of an LSU fan does not share the same vaunted status that LSU does in your mind. We have bigger goals in mind...and thats probably because we have a legit chance to achieve them every year.

Perhaps one day you and your fellow pigs will get to that point.
