As Tiger fans, the "what's better for LSU" question is huge. There's no wrong answer to this question, but my personal opinion says we should root for the Hogs to hold court. Auburn believes in itself again, but I see that confidence as fragile. If Arkansas repeats its ground success from the last 2 meetings with Team Indecisive (pick a nickname..just one), Tuberville will be fighting not only a demoralized team, but also very angry media and fans. On the flip side, dropping from the ranks of the unbeaten would not be a treasured event in Fayetteville, but it also won't derail the Hogs from their goals to get back back to the ATL and win for once. Thus, I say with muted enthusiam: Geaux Arkansas..suck less than Auburn!
I personally would like to see arkansas undeafeted when they get here, as well as LSU. It would be two top 5 teams....Game day would surely return...It would be an amazing gameday atmosphere...if you thought georgia was loud...it would be blown away. So my philosophy is to put my deep dislike of arkansas to the side and root for their victory in every game leading up to the pre-thanksgiving matchup, where I believe we will win 31-20. sincerely, Gator Hater
its kind of like the OU/UT game this weekend. i hate texas, but a texas win (along with an LSU win) means LSU moves up in the polls. but...if LSU keeps winning it wont matter in the end...so...yeah...i guess ill have to root for OU.
I'd have to say Arkansas since they are undefeated and have an easy schedule for the most part. One of the good things about our game against Arkansas is that they will be on the 8th straight week without a bye by that time. Plus since the game is on Friday, it will be a short week. We might catch them a little tired and banged up. Both of these games will be a handful for us though.
.. Hell, it doesn't matter. LSU gets it's shot at both of these teams. If we are good enough, and we are, what everyone else does just doesn't matter. The The Hogs and the Urinators should be a very good game.
WE want an Auburn win. This helps our strength of Schedule since now Auburn and Arkansas will be ranked... Go War Eagle/Tiger/Plainsmen whatever
I also want an undefeated Arkansas when we play them so I guess I'll be pulling for them. The LSU/Arkansas game will be my parents first ever game in Tiger Stadium and I would love for it to be between two top five teams.
