It makes absolutely no sense for Bama to change their schedule or add a game in. Not moving any games around due to cancellation, just evening out the byes to the same week? What the frick? You play teams all the time coming off a bye when you didn't just have one


I agree. Just pointing out that he didn't say Alabama has to play 13 games.

So now it's Alleva's week to go full retard?


That's not really any different than every other week. Many LSU fans would agree with me.

Obviously it's ridiculous to suggest Bama move a game to that weekend, but it's also ridiculous to make LSU play its 4 best opponents in 5 weeks with 3 of those being away games when this game should have been played yesterday or today.

Alleva needs to just stop talking.

LSU has won this from a PR perspective. The more he talks the more that erodes.

Does LSU want to play this game? Doesn't sound like it.


Damn right we do and it does sound like it. We tried to play any time, any day, and any where on the weekend that it was scheduled.

At this point if it is played it should, and appears will, be on our terms. UF and the stupid arse SEC will dictate nothing to us. This could turn Alleva's career at LSU around if he does what he should do.

Alleva sounds like an idiot from this. He wants Alabama to play a 13th regular season game, or move one of their other games around, so neither team has a bye?

Art of negotiation. Ask for the moon and then negotiate down to what it is you actually want.

You mean like @ Arkansas, @ Tennessee, Texas A&M, @ LSU in a 5 week stretch? 3 top 15 teams and a top 25 team?

Time to storm the SEC offices!

And exactly who the hell does he think Alabama should play? Is he really this fricking stupid? A few months ago, LSU fans were telling us he was...I guess they were right.

If we were afraid we would cave to your completely ridiculous demands.

That's with a bye.

Now, ask yourself if it's fair to ask LSU to go OM, Bama, @ Arkansas, @ UF and @ aTm in 5 straight weeks, with the last 3 being played in only 12 days.

That's what people are asking them to do.

Alleva was not being serious about bama playing on their bye week. It was a message to the SEC office that he thinks the ONLY option is to play the game the week after the season is over and push back the sec championship game if possible.

IMO, LSU/UF game should be penciled in as a tie and keep the schedule "as is".

Yea, it'd be rough, and if they did it that way obviously the A&M game has to be moved to Saturday.
