let's just take LSU out of this discussion for a minute

There is pretty much zero chance arky can pass alabama in the bcs or even any component of the bcs. teh verbiage out of the media types has been every type of excuse for how they should have beaten LSU and are the best team in the country

Barring an Alabama loss to Auburn they are not getting dropped in the opinion polls (relative to Arkansas) and they are far enough ahead of Arkansas in the computers they are not getting passed by Arkansas in that either

Arkansas could beat LSU this Friday and still get shut out of the BCS. In fact, if they beat LSU that is a near certainty that they will

Without knowing how the human voters will cast their ballots, how can you say anything with certainty. If the votes split in the following way, can you say with certainty Arkansas would be kept out?

% of 1st place votes:
Bsma - 56.67%
Ark - 33.33%
LSU - 10%

% of 2nd place votes:
Ark - 50%
LSU - 25%
Bsms - 25%

% of 3rd place votes:
LSU - 65%
Bama - 18.33%
Ark - 16.67%
