That there is an equal amount of pressure on LSU going into this game.

I think that is a crock of shite. If Bama wins on Saturday, they are a lock to play in the SECCG. If LSU wins, they still have a lot of work to do.

Lets see, Bama is favored to win and playing at home which means added pressure to perform. They are playing a nationally televised game, meaning pressure to showcase there Heisman candidate running back. They have the pressure of snapping a losing streak at BDS against the Tigers.

What other reasons can you think of for Bama having more pressure on them? Or do you believe that LSU has just as much, if not more, pressure on them going into this weekend??

The winner of this game is likely headed to ATL...

Equal pressure..our situation is more do or die...they can still get in if we drop to Ole Miss or Arky

-The fact that they are unbeaten.
-On their offensive performance overall.
-On getting their confidence back after Tenn's game.
-And, as you said, keeping the crowd into the game.

Both teams have the same goal on the line, an SEC championship. Don't know why one team should be experiencing any more pressure than the other.

However an LSU victory means we will have far more on the line than either Ole Miss or Arkansas and that's where the pressure will be felt.

I think there is a different kind of pressure on both teams, but maybe equal.

They've got the undefeated, championship-bound pressure. That's intense.

LSU has the "on the cusp" pressure. A win here can send this team down the championship path. 2008 is looming in the background with brass knuckles if the team loses. I'm not saying it would end up that way, but it's back there.
