I personally would suggest giving it another shot when both teams aren't playing a non-traditional Thanksgiving Day game
This argument for me is invalid because Texas A&M essentially held us hostage and demanded it be played then. Had it been out of their control I'd understand.

To be fair, A&M wanted Thursdays and LSU wanted Fridays, so the compromise was that when we played in CS, it would be on Thursday, and when we played in BTR, it would be on Fridays.
It didn't last long because I think the networks realized that the Thursday game between LSU/A&M didn't have the draw the A&M/Texas game did, and the networks wanted to move the Iron Bowl to Friday.
A&M/LSU is now played on Saturdays, and I'm ok with that.
ETA: I'm wrong about the Iron Bowl in Fridays. Derp.
