I have always hated playing Arkansas the last game of the season because our guys have a hard time getting up for the game because it's Arkansas. Arkansas is always sky high of the game.
But with Texas A&M its a totally different story. We have some history with the Aggies and will be a much better rival for LSU. I hope Missouri is a much better rivalry game for Arkansas.

The fact is, and LSU fans don't want to admit it, they want a rival they can beat the shite out of on a regular basis, not just 2 out of 5.

We don't like you. Is that clear?
We are so tired of hearing how great you are!
Are you afraid to NOT play us?
Go drink your piss or whatever your team's motto is...

Some Arkansas fans are making a bigger deal out of this than it really is.
At the end of the day, I don't really care who our last game is against. But if you asked me honestly, who will be our bigger rival? I think TexA&M will be LSU's biggest rival. So if they want that last weekend as "rivalry" weekend, then LSU-A&M is a better choice than LSU-Arky....IMO.
No disrespect to Arkansas or the LSU-Arkansas game....It's definitely picked up steam lately and is becoming a game to look forward to. But I have never really considered it a "rivalry game" even though the SEC/LSU/Arky have definitely tried to make it that.

Ark fans get over it, you lost your blossoming rivalary with LSU. Aggies are hands down a better fit, with some good history against LSU. Move on to Mizzou and try to develop a decent rivalry.

you may have something there. playing ar-kansas for the boot (now that i look back) were some of the most cherished times of my life. i think i'll start a movement.

It must sting a little for arky fans to think they had this great thing going with LSU, only for the new kid on the block to come in and kick them to the curb.
Poor little piggies

It's simple. We want a better quality opponent for our "rivalry" game. We have a better record against Arkansas than we do against Texas A&M, so it makes sense we'd want them as our rival instead of Arkansas.

I actually prefer to play the Hogs at the end of the year. It's usually a great game.

It would be kinda interesting for LSU and A&M to start off every season playing each other - or at least have each other penciled in as the SEC opener for each other.
Thanksgiving is a television event but it is my least favorite game to actually try and attend. Especially because they tend to play that game on a day other than Saturday. I understand we're a football obsessed culture but I'd rather be with my family for Thanksgiving and Christmas than do a Thursday or Friday game... if it was Saturday instead? Completely different story for me

It's fun to watch the Miracle on Markham footage.
Arky fans loved Nutt back them ("The Nutt House!"). LSU fans were head over heels in love with Saban. Saban, defensive genius for the ages, allows Arkansas to throw two deep balls in a row to win the game.
LSU was so devestated by the loss that the next season we went on to win the national title, steamrolling the Hogs along the way.
But congrats to the Hogs on denying us the opportunity to have three straight SEC West titles (2001, 2002, 2003). Something to hang your hat on since the Hogs never hoist up any trophies in the Georgia Dome or the Superdome.

It still astounds me how desperate some fanbases can be for attention
Just give up already, no one will ever give a shite about arkansas. I hope one day some of you can come to terms with this
