Tyrann Mathieu's 92-yard Punt Return Sparks LSU to 41-17 Win over Arkansas, BCS Title Game Berth
By Jason McIntyre
The Honey Badger did it again, and LSU is going to the BCS title game, regardless of what happens in the SEC title game against Georgia next weekend. LSU 41, Arkansas 17. Would you believe the Razorbacks led 14-0? With LSU trailing 14-7 late in the 2nd quarter, Mathieu fielded a punt and raced 92 yards virtually untouched for a score. LSU tacked another one on at the end of the half, and Arkansas never really threatened in the 2nd half.
Who will LSU play in the title game? The BCS cartel will put all the 1-loss teams in a hat – sorry, Houston, you’re unbeaten, but you play in a pathetic conference and, well, those are the rules – and pick one out. Alabama will probably be your victor, but what happens if Auburn manages to beat Alabama in the Iron Bowl Saturday? Stanford? Oklahoma State? Virginia Tech?
Yes, everyone wants a playoff.
