I can't decide for whom to root...Arky or tOSU.

I typically would pull for the SEC team to win, but all these Arky fans have gotten out of control. They need a little humility.

The flagship has some humility.

Inbred Tiger, I think you should root for whoever you want to win.

I don't recall anyone from the flagship requesting your fandom.

This is the only time of year you should pull for your're hated conference rival.

I disagree. I will never root for LSU no matter who they are playing.

I'm pulling for Arkansas. Good luck to all of the SEC teams this bowl season.

Awwww, really? I like watching LSU win. Makes us look better if we beat them. Plus, I spend most Saturdays watching games with LSU alum, so I'm probably conditioned to think that way.

I really don't understand why this is such an issue for so many people. This isn't directed at the OP because a similar thread will come up 145 more times between today and the Oregon-Auburn game.
If I pull for Arkansas and they win , do you think Petrino in the post game presser will say, "you know,it looked bleak at the start of the fourth qtr, but I knew good ol' I-59 Tiger was pulling for us. The boys fed off that."
Football recruiting in the SEC is intense,almost too intense and not real gentlemenly. Bowl wins and rankings are used against rival schools. Its almost to another SEC team's advantange for a rival school to lose their game.
SEC football is king. It's not even close. The domination of the SEC rivals what UCLA did in college basketball from '67-'73. The rest of the world knows its place. No other team will be 'harmed' "next year" by what happens to another team this bowl season.
Basketball is more dicey. Kentucky and Tennessee and Florida (mainly because of Pearl and Donovan) get lots of attention and some favoritism to a degree but to paraphrase the great philosopher Patrick F. Dye, the rest of the league is "scratchin' and clawin' just tryin' to make the tournament". If you like college basketball it does help the rest of the league when an SEC member makes a nice run,like UT did last Spring. LSU winning the '09 title and being seeded 8 really said the SEC sucks.
Football ? Screw 'em.

I lived in LA for most all my life and nearly all of my closest friends are hardcore LSU fans. But I love seeing the absolute meltdown by the fanbase after either a loss or a Tennessee type win. I also know that no matter how hard I root against them, they're going to win 10 games.

they can get humble after Mallet leaves.
better that they win.
You think THEY need a lesson in humility.
talk to the sweater-vest about humility.
crush the Ohio State.

I hate LSU, but I'm still pulling for LSU against the Aggies.
