Say that Arkansas is going to kick our arse.
I just don't believe that.

With the way LSU has played all year, I don't understand why everyone is discounting us.
There's only been one game all year closer than 13points.
What is it about all of these teams that makes anyone believe that they can play with LSU?

which doesn't mean anything if one is objectively breaking down this year's matchup...
I heard one guy this morning use the "Arky beat them at BR in 2007" as the basis of his argument. Not one word about specific matchup problems, LSU weaknesses that Ark can exploit, etc. Just "Arkansas is really playing well and they beat them in a similar situation in 2007"

Provacative statements attract more listeners - if you agree or disagree, you still keep listening.

Do you think the death of one of their players who
was loved by every one at University of Arkansas.

Makes them look "brilliant" if they hype an upset that actually winds up happening (a clock is right at least once a day).

Assuming they are all saying this, it's boring as hell to anyone outside SEC country to think that the NCG is a done deal before thanksgiving and a rematch of divisional foes who played in an uber hyped game just over 2 weeks ago.
Think if Ohio St, Michigan, and Wisconsin were 1,2,3. Michigan, who 2 weeks ago lost to OSU was basically assured a CG birth. OSU was playing Wisconsin this week but were clearly better.
I'd be pretty bored with that scenario

Talk doesn't give Alabama any points. The game will start 0-0 and when we beat them again the pundits will start talking about how Bama will beat us next year and start the pre season ranked #1. But, guess what? We will have a third BCS title and no one will be able to change that!

Haven't heard anyone say anyone is going to "kick our arse." Beat us in a close game, maybe, but not kick our arse.

I certainly haven't been listening nonstop, but the way I hear it is that they're all saying it's possible for Arkansas to win. Then they roll to all the talk and hypotheticals.
They have time to fill. Saying LSU is going to win out makes for a lot of dead air.

I think a better question is why does it matter what THEY say? Opinions and assholes bro. I'm getting tired of my fellow Tiger Faithful whining about :"Oh he said this and they said that and they hate LSU" Damn man this is a big country. Not everyone has to blow our Tigers. As long as The Tigers keep winning F-'em! Just noise in the background.

Arkansas is actually a very big hurdle. I've watched them get better and better. Their offense is explosive. Their O-line was atrocious earlier in the season, but it has gotten better. I've rarely ever seen a QB get pummeled like that. Wilson is a tough SOB and a great QB in general. He's only been held under 200 one time and that was at Bama (185 yds and 2 TDs/1 Int). He's gone over 300+ four times including 500+ against the Aggies.
With that said, they struggled hard to beat Ole Miss and Vandy on the road and lost to Bama on the road. Our D-line should be able to get in and disrupt the QB. I think disruption is the key because the dude ain't really scared to take a hit from what I've seen. We need to make them rush their passes because they hit a lot of crossing routes that take a while to develop.
Our O-line should also give us an edge. The key is to just keep their offense off of the field. They have excellent receivers and a stud on special teams. We have some studs on special teams too though. Our physical nature should be our biggest advantage as the game goes on.

Because saying the other will only make LSU fans happy. Saying this will make Arky fans, 'Bama fans, OSU fans and even Stanford fans happy. No contest. Media doesn't care nearly so much about honest as it does about ear and eyeball count.
