I've read on this board you will beat us by 30

I hear you, but I think the majority of the posters here don't feel like this game is going to be a walk for LSU. Honest question, do the razorbacks you know really think Ark is going to walk into Baton Rouge and pick up an easy win? This appears to be the prevailing thought on Hogville. The posters there like to point to all this historical nonsense to justify it, but they don't want to look at the reality of THIS SEASON. LSU has been more dominating this year than any LSU team in modern history (including our NC teams of 2003 and 2007). Arkansas has a loss by 24 to a team we beat and two close wins against bad teams. Where does this absolute certainty of a win come from? What I am seeing from them is: Arkansas has improved. Arkansas "matches up" better with LSU than Bama (whatever that means).

I don't mind fans having confidence in your team, but at least acknowledge (based on this season) that LSU will be a tough opponent.

Hell no...There is nothing in this game that suggest that. Do we have a chance to win? I think you would agree that we do...It will be our toughest challenge to date

I think the historical aspect is more of a feeling that we can win going into the game...most years, your talent outclasses us but are somehow able to compete and win the game...It's a mindset, something we don't have against a team named Bama

Again...I don't know how many times it can be said that we are just now getting healthy, especially on defense with two returning all-sec DE's...We had injuries at CB and S as well. I'm not going to make excuses for the 2 special team TD's and the tipped pick 6...those things happen

If Arkansas fans were the only ones saying this I might give you benefit...truth is they heard it listenting to some radio talk show or espn...hell, I heard Chris Lowe say it today

It will be a huge climb to win...but I give us a fighting chance.

Prize fight...Undisputed #1 vs #3 for all the marbles...gonna be good!

Easy? No. Win? Good chance. You guys think every year your team will just beat the piss out of us. The Hogs have stepped up and got the W. It's easy to be confident in this team's ability. It may not be pretty, but we've beat everybody that has lined up in front of us except for Bama.
