Is it strange that this game intrigues me a lot more than the Alabama/LSU game?
Both teams have been winning ugly... and both teams most likely need this win to stay in contention for their divisions.
Definitely. If Bama should lose then Arkansas controls it's destiny.
If LSU is still one(which they would be) and Arkansas beats them, then they would most likely jump Alabama and LSU no matter what position they are in, and they would go since the tie-breaker is the highest BCS ranking.
unless the second of the tied teams is ranked within five-or-fewer places of the highest ranked tied team. In this case, the head-to-head results of the top two ranked tied teams shall determine the representative in the SEC Championship Game
This part of the rule is what was different between the ACC and SEC tiebreakers... and the Big 12's. If the Big 12 had this rule, Texas would have been in the Big 12 title game that year and not Oklahoma.

Yeah, it is strange unless you are a SC or Ark fan. This game is important, but not as important as the LSU/Bama game when it comes to controlling destiny. Ark can't get in without beating LSU and LSU has to beat Bama for that to matter. So, in a sense, this game is as important for Ark fans as their own game is.
It's pretty important in the East in terms of controlling one's destiny.
