LSU gets lucky break from SEC officials on egregious fumble vs. Arkansas
By Mike Luciano
Arkansas was robbed of a turnover in the early stages of their game against LSU.
LSU running back John Emery Jr. clearly fumbled the ball, but SEC officials decided to screw the Razorbacks out of a turnover by ruling him down by contact.

In an odd turn of events, LSU fumbled after this which was recovered by Arkansas, so I guess it’s true, ball don’t lie.
Arkansas could put a stamp on a tremendous season with a win against LSU
Arkansas came into this game at 3-4, but even that record is misleading given their controversial loss against Auburn. While taking down the defending champs, disappointing as they’ve been, would be Arkansas’ biggest win in years, the refs are apparently trying to hand Ed Orgeron’s team a win.
The Tigers lead Arkansas 10-7 late in the first half. Fans can watch the SEC West rivalry game on the SEC Network to see who wins the battle for the boot.
