yep, they did. arkansas has a poor post season record; their last bowl win was vs east carolina. don't hear much about that tho.
it was hilarious around here when osu got stripped of their wins. hog fans were saying hey, we won...er, no, you didn't!


was arky really #2 sec last year tho? hard to imagine.

They were, the east beat each other all year and so did the west except Auburn of course. Ark was ahead of LSU (though tied).

LSU vs. BAMA II, January 9, 2012. Like it or not its coming. Les is still sitting on the plays in the back of his playbook.

Those Tigers are something else aren't they? They just find a way to win.

42 unanswered points. unreal. they're like a horse that doesn't leave the gate well-but once they get in stride, you better look out.


mathieu named mvp-figured it was between him and hilliard. this team has some depth. i'm loving it.

It is unreal how they win. Big plays on defense and special teams, impeccable kicking, Jefferson is pretty much a non-factor. They just hang around the first half and when its over, they are up by 30 every time. I feel for Lee, but the fact is they dont really need him in there. Within the last few days, information has come to light about why Lee hasnt hit the field and it make some sense to me. He may not be academically eligible past midterm, thus the full-time switch to Jefferson.

Just like when I started this thread, I like LSU again. Not sure I love them as 3-5 point favorites though.

I'd rather see whatever happens betwixt LSU and Ok State than see another field goal suckfest.

How does a team who failed to qualify for a confrence championship game get to play in the national title game?

I really don't care if they're one of the two best teams... or the best one-loss team.

If you finish 2nd out of 6 in a division of the SEC -- you have no business playing for a national title.

Stupid.
