Not bad matchup but this game isn't gonna fill hotel rooms.



I know this game wont sell like the Sugar and BCSNC but from what I have heard the entire city of Lafayette is gonna be there.

Who cares how many bowls they have anyway because you still get to watch football and I guarantee all those bowls are gonna be a lot more entertaining then the damn NBA.

You realize Missouri has had only 4, 10 win seasons ever.

While Arkansas and LSU have had 12, 10 win seasons or greater.

I wouldn't say much to Arkansas considering we both have the same number of bowl wins yet Arkansas has played in 2 times as many.


Your, arbitrary, use of, commas, annoys me.

And I don't know if playing in two times as many bowls as Mizzou yet only having won the same amount is something to brag about.

The facts remain.

Arkansas and LSU 12, 10 win seasons.

Missouri can't even get to 5.

No need to brag when Arkansas' program is clearly better of all-time.

Interesting, I'm likely misinformed. I read an article where the Sugar Bowl folks were dreading having to take Houston and likely getting locked out of taking the second SEC team b/c of the rematch.

The article basically said they were pretty much being forced to take Michigan a team that travels well over a KState, Boise St, or Stanford. Of course Houston went on to lose to make that null, and the Sugar got VT, but they still took Mich. over KState and Boise. One of the sidenotes was in when LSU plays in N.O. the hotels don't do as well since the stays are shorter and the restaurants aren't as busy for the same reason, people go home after the game or just stay the night of, it's not a 4-5 day trip like other fanbases make it.

@ least now I know what day it'll be safe to shop at the Marshall's in Laffy.

Hate all you want just keep shopping @ Wal*Mart and buying Tyson chicken. You can leave off the A when pronouncing the state name like a fool, but don't you ever stop sending your money to NWA. My retirement asks you to keep buying.

Another embarrassment for our fanbase. Go back to third grade grammar; become a new person.

B. You have a lot of time on your hands
C. You can't enjoy football.

You must be so cool.

So you have no problems with only the Rose Bowl and a slight problem with the BCS title game...awesome.

I suppose only Top 5 conference winners should go to bowls then?

Also, played in the home stadium of the San Francisco Giants. To quote something that I read on a USC board...you know that you're in a crappy bowl game when you see foul poles on the football field.
