thanks for your objective look at the matchups...

However, we won both those games in spite of Jennings.

So, Jennings is out there purposely playing below your expectations and to hurt the team? Got it. How many drops have the young receivers had this season? Why no hate for them? Besides, the only reason the UF game was so close was due to two special teams snafus. Totally Jennings' fault, though.

The Arky defense is not bad and is certainly better than UK and UF

Not even remotely true, by 32 spots compared to UF and 15 spots to UK. Added: In fact, We have played five teams with better numbers on defense than Arkansas so far.

At this point of our season, I think a win at Arky or A&M will be an upset

---

When looking at LSU at this point compared to both Arkansas and A&M at this same point, are you serious?

The ineptitude of Jennings and Miles

Oh ok, it all makes sense now.

quote:

keep the defense on the field and there is no way we will slow down Arky's running game if that happens

Arkansas' offense could pose a problem, I'll give you that. Though, LSU looks to have made some strides in that department the last two weeks. Plus, games on the road are always difficult look at how boogeyman Alabama plays on the road.

I hope we win all 4

Do you really?

but what have we done to make us think we will win more than 1 of the last 4 games?

---

Besides appearing to have made improvements/hit strides on both lines? Playing better on defense as a whole? Going into a stadium that LSU has only won in a handful of times in the last 28 years? (Fifth win in Gainsville since 1986.) Other than that, I guess nothing.

What have Arkansas or A&M done recently to make you think LSU beating them will be an "upset" when all three teams are viewed at this point in the season?

You make some good points.
