I love how the hog fans are now quiet about this considering how Sunday night they were laughing at lsumatt's analysis, calling him and LSU fans delusional to think a loss to hogs would still send us to Atlanta.
Poor Arkansas, never gets a break to take that next step as a program.

I guess all of those experts have finally come to their senses how real of a possibility it is.

There is tons of gold in this thread. Here's one example.
quote:
I understand how it works.
I just think LSU fans are so God damn delusional that they think there will be a close enough gap between them and Arkansas in the human polls that it will keep Arkansas from jumping to #2 the BCS total.
I do not believe the corndogs are open to the possibility that they are looked at as the #3 or #4 team in America, opposed to some sort of really really really close 1a.
LSU loses to Arkansas and Arkansas is the BCS #2. Deal with it.

Actually...you guys will look like the biggest douchenuggets WHEN we move to #2 after OUR win...

I still don't understand how they (some Arky fans) didn't see this coming or how most won't even acknowledge that it's reasonable.

They either are A) really bad at math and understanding how the BCS works or B) in denial.
I like to think it's B just to be nice.

It's reasonable...because its reality

Why not? 3 way tie. You have to break it somehow. Head to head doesnt do it.

Um ok. Well still yes. We would likely be behind yall in the human polls. What else do you want? Our resume is much stronger though (computers show that). So why would i have a problem with us being in front of yall at #2?
I'm not seeing how this is even a question.

Arkansas fans are having a really hard time coming to grips with the reality of the situation. They do not seem to understand how the BCS formula works.
Posted on 11/23/11 at 8:13 am to BeeFense5
Well i think as the week goes on some are starting to understand. That's why they arent responding as much on this topic.
Posted on 11/23/11 at 8:14 am to bbap
You are right. The chatter from their side definitely has dwindled on the subject.

COMPUTERS, COMPUTERS, COMPUTERS...
I know that's what you guys are gonna fall back on but there is no logic to you losing and staying in front of the team that just beat you 2 days earlier with the same SEC Record
I know it MAY happen

Nobody is being quiet about it. We are just sick of repeating ourselves. None of us really care about going to the SECCG if we can still go to the NCG...simple as that. We've said that a million times.
Whether or not beating LSU will jump us up into #1 or #2 is still to be seen. We just need to beat down the corndoggers then we can worry more about it.

I get it. But you don't seem to understand the system. You can argue reason all day, but it won't get you anything.

Well that's just it. You can't. Unless UGA beats LSU.
