With the likely addition of A&M to the west, would the Arkansas big heads in LR have the A&M game moved to LR in LSU's place?

No, you guys can stay in LR.

I would like Alabama/Arkansas to be moved to Little Rock.

Jerry Jones hands A&M and Arkansas 5 mil a piece each year to play in Jerry World til 2019, with an additional 20 years in roll over options.
Don't count on it.

Contract to stay at Jerrys little bitty stadium.

Ok, then play Alabama there. CapstOne is all for it. That's good enough for me.

Why? Aren't you in Bentonville or Rogers?

Part of the time. But I like Little Rock. And I went to the first Alabama/Arkansas SEC game there in 1992.

Oh, I see. No offense, but I'm thinking you've been drinking the good stuff if you'd actually prefer to watch the Bama/Arkansas game in LR. Unless you're just hoping to avoid an extra 20,000 people helping Arkansas' home field advantage (Fayetteville gets good for the big games). War Memorial just isn't nice enough for 2011, IMHO.

The tailgating scene seems to be far better in Little Rock.

Seems that didn't matter in 2010. I was there, I saw it. I was also there in 2008.

Concessions are awful. The stadium seating felt like the seatting at the Mud Island Amphitheater

This I can't comment on. I barely make it to the games, much less have time to tailgate. Just hear that Fayetteville's come a long way. But I know LR has a huge advantage in terms of space and trashy rednecks with no intention of going to/watching the game.

It helped. It just wasn't enough help.

LSU will be played in Fayetteville sooner than later. As for the Mississippi schools, we can and should leave those games in LR IMO

I like having a couple games in LR... but I agree that the LSU game should be moved to Fayetteville.

I'm fine trading Ole Miss to Little Rock for LSU in Fayetteville.
Closer trip for the Oxfordese.
