Arky has 1 SEC loss to Bama, and AU is undefeated

so from that angle, you'd say cheer for the Hogs to give AU a loss in the standings as well

on the flip side though, you could root for an AU win over Arky to set up a huge game in 2 weeks and to put Arky in a hole.

Having said that, I think I'll cheer for Arky and for multiple OT's.

I always pull for our best chances of winning it all. I never pull for a better game match up

Cheer for Auburn. LSU needs to defeat an undefeated in the second half of the season to jump some other teams.

Def Arky. It can only help us to have Aub lose since they are in a better position to win the west than Arky. frick the rankings match-up. Our ranking will take care of themselves if we keep winning.

I hope it a tough battle that is difficult physically on both teams (like UF/Bama obviously was). That said, Arkansas winning probably helps us more at this time.

I'll be pulling for Arky to hand Auburn their first "L". I worry more about what Newton's running would do to LSU than what Mallet's arm could do. Either way, we've got to beat them both to have any shot at the crystal football.

Not with Nebraska, Ohio State, Oregon, TCU, and Boise all ahead of us. We need to win against higher ranked opponents. We are 6-0, yet a 5-1 Bama is ahead of us in the coaches and Harris polls. We need to beat a high ranked Auburn to help jump TCU and Nebraska

I will be pulling for Auburn. Lee has already proved that he can beat Auburn on the road. Arky seems to always have our number. If we beat Auburn and beat Bama and loose to Arky we still go to Atlanta.

Good point. If we win out who fricking cares what happens with the other's W-L record.

The correct answer is if we are going to lose this season pull for Arky.

If we are going to win out, pull for the higher ranked team. AUB.

It really doesn't matter since we have play them both. Frankly, I would rather AUB be undefeated when we play in two weeks.

I watched both Arkansas and Auburn play ULM. Auburn is by far the stronger of the two. You can rattle Mallett with a strong pass rush and Arkansas does not have a strong running game. Auburn is much more physical and their front line on offense is really strong.

Honestly, I don't care who wins that one just as long as they beat the shite out of each other.

It doesn't matter at all if we win out. We will jump every team in front of us at that point.

I'm pulling for Ark. We would be the only undefeated SEC team.

IF we beat Aub we control our destiny.

IF Aub beats LSU, LSU beats Bama and wins out, we need Bama to beat Aub. But Aub would go to Atl due to head to head.

Auburn needs to lose for us to have a better chance of going to Atl.
