re: ARK vs AUB

I don't want either team to win. But if I have to choose, I want Arkansas to win.

The reason is simple. I don't see LSU going undefeated. I think there are 1 or 2 more losses on our schedule. The best scenario is for our competition to have as many losses as possible.

I just don't see many teams that can beat Auburn left on there schedule. Therefore, I am hoping that Arkansas and LSU beat Auburn, giving them two losses. Then Arkansas can then lose to USCe, giving them two conference losses as well. Then if Auburn would beat Alabama in the Iron Bowl, Alabama would have two conference losses. Then, that would mean that LSU would only have to win 1 out of the 3 games with the AAA schools to have a 4-way tie in the SEC west. If LSU were to win 2 out of the 3, they would be outright champions.

Therefore, I think Arkansas beating Auburn would give LSU the best chance at winning the West. If Auburn wins, it makes the Auburn game a must win for LSU because the worst Auburn would likely lose is 1 game in the conference, and they would have the head-to-head on LSU.
