When we arrived in Dallas we picked up a newspaper and they were questioning why LSU was even invited. I mean as far as the media and Arkansas fans were concerned it was a slam dunk victory for Arkansas.


LSU was a surprise invite to this bowl. I was in Tennessee when the bowl pairings were announced - Tennessee fans were expecting this bid, and when the Tigers got it, the Tennessee papers were livid. One columnist predicted Ark would easily win by 30 points or more. Tigers didn't get no respect from Arkansas or from their own conference.
