The good news is, the year of the one time you played in one, you held the eventual National Champion under 70 points. Obviously, you contended for national championship that year.

Fun fact, Arkansas's best team this decade gave up 65 points to a team that threw the ball an astounding 15 times.

Clearly ready for prime time.

Also, in our entire history, we have never been shutout in a bowl except against LSU in the 1946 Cotton Bowl which ended in a 0-0 tie.


Speaking of LSU, how about that epicly awesome 1966 Cotton Bowl.

That ended well for Arkansas, right?

22 game win streak. National title on the line. Pigs came to play that day.

It was all LSU needed to win. Arkansas made one final push to tie the game, reaching the LSU 24 when time ran out. But its school-record 22-game win streak ended. So did its hopes of claiming another national title.


Thanks for giving us an excuse to take this trip down memory lane.

That's not hiding. That's called making fun of your team because you were the first SEC school to lose to them in a bowl game.


I'll be the first to say that Arkansas fans shouldn't be talking shite to LSU fans when it comes to championships, but this post is pathetic.

To all decent LSU posters, please don't take this as a flame, it's merely to make a point.

Just so I'm clear, when you talk shite about the OSU game after getting beat by Arkansas you arent hiding behind OSU. You are only making fun of Arkansas for being the first SEC team to lose to them in a bowl game.

When Arkansas fans, after getting beat by LSU, talk shite about about LSUs loss in BCS championship game they are hiding behind Alabama, not just making fun of LSU for being the first team to not cross the 50 yard line in the BCS title game?

It's really too funny to watch "ham" scramble. When he runs out of end runs and deflections he nearly always comes back with a bama over LSU reference, because that's all he's got left....makes you wonder how old this ham moron is !

Oh...I thought you meant they played the eventual national champion IN the Sugar Bowl. I was simply backing up your point by showing that video.

My bad. I misunderstood your post.

No problem. I can see if we are chronicling all of the great failures in Arkansas football history how a learned man like yourself could be confused.

Hey, mister, get your facts straight and show LSU some respect! They did cross the 50, one time!

It's been 5 years since LSU has played in a BCS game that they haven't been shutout in.



Arkansas has never won a BCS game.



Or the SEC. This is the reason losing Petrino sucks for them so badly. They don't have very high goals, just glad to finish 3rd.

I don't think I have ever seen such a collective cry fest over a coach that is consistently third place.

You realize that you are trying to flame a team that won a conference title and was actually playing in the national championship?

Your flame doesn't make any sense.

To say nothing of the fact that LSU beat Bama last year, a feat that Arkansas hasn't matched in quite some time.

Arky...you love to bang on Les Miles

Let us know when you have a coach that wins 85-17 in 7 seasons

1-1 BCS titles (had to play Alabama in rematch of all things)
2-1 in SEC title games
5-2 in Bowls
3 BCS victories
Beaten Nick Saban 3 times..and 2 years in a row...and have Bama at home this year to make it the 3 season in a row over Bama...:)
Preseason #1
or coach that leads your team 13-0, 9-0 in SEC play

Let us know....until then, lay off our coach...

he has done way better than any coach in your school history.

But was still only the second best team in the conference.

As LSU fans have stated in regards to Arkansas making the Sugar Bowl, it doesn't matter if you make it, it's about winning it. Why would you reference a game in which your team was completely embarrassed and annihilated in order to say I should respect them?

To cross the 50 yard line in the BCSNC game ... You have to MAKE IT TO THE GAME!

So guess what, LSU crossed the 50 yard line in the 2012 game more times than Arkansas has EVER crossed it in the BCS era.

Which makes Arkansas look all the more pathetic when you consider what Jordan Jefferson did to your defense.

Jefferson's only 200 yard passing game in 2011 was against Arkansas. Longest run of the year (48 yards) for JJ came against Arkansas.
