razorbacks 14-0 lead. they were look good but that would end right there. lsu rolled the rest of the way. they outscored arkansas 41-3. jordan jefferson kept it and up the middle 48 yards. lsu takes the sec west with a huge win over arkansas 41-17. they will play georgia next week in the sec championship game. utah watched its chances to win the pack 12 south go down the drain. they lost at home to last-place colorado. coleman peterson missed a 48- yard field goal. so ucla will play either oregon or stanford in the pac 12 title game. >> all right. my clymonds beat skyline. 10 million people watched the harbowl between the 49ers and ravens. it was the nfl network's highest rated game ever. >> that watched was reminded how good the ravens defense really s these guys can play. they sacked alex smith nine times and held the 49ers to just 170 total yards. after the game jim harbaugh had no problem complimenting the winning coach his ohler brother john. >> as iron sharpens iron, a man sharpens another man. my brother john is the sharpest i have met in my life. >> we are going it play teams like this and go somewhere. we ain't in the play-offs so we have to continue to play like we're going tore something. the 49ers lose ground for home field advantage in the nfc but they are the number 2 seed which would mean a first round bye in the play-offs. stanford women's soccer team is the overall number one seed in the ncaa tournament. >> we are going streaking. >> anytime we can get that in. the streaking cardinal need a win tonight against oklahoma state to advance to the fourth cup. soccer's equivalent to the final four. the cardinal seniors have never lost at home during the last four years. despite that they have never won a national championship. they hope to change that this year. >> this team is so competitive that we don't want to lose any game whether it's here or away. it's been special to go four years without losing at home. we have had great fans throughout my time here and it means a lot to the team to never lose at home and we have a lot of pride in playing here on our home field and hopefully we can keep that up on friday when we play oklahoma state. last few years we lost the national championship game and it stuck with the players all who played in both games so it's something we definitely wanted to win and hope to do everything we can to make sure this doesn't happen again. >> so we'll see. maybe this year will be their year. tonight, cal and arizona state. so some more football action going on. >> did you see what lawrence did when you had the ucla -- >> he did a cartwheel. >> he did a flip-flop. >> well, something like that. >> flip-flop days are over for me. >> i think his version of the wave is like this. >> a little back problem. all right. "eye on the bay" is next. as we -- as believe you, this is cesar chavez park christmas in the park. there is the countdown. now it begins. it's not just shopping, is it? >> no. >> everyone in the holiday spirit. enjoy your evening. we'll be back at 10:00 on the cw and 11:00 on cbs 5 right here. >> caption colorado, llc c comments@captioncolorado.com & %f0 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
