re: How would this board react if the LSU-BYU game was postponed by a hurricane?

Agree with all of those comments. I'm guessing that many Florida fans knew their administration didn't handle the situation very well, which led them to get defensive and attack the low hanging fruit (Alleva's public whining).

At least four days out people knew that Katrina was probably hitting Louisiana. Then you had another two weeks until the game. Not even close to being comparable.

---

again, look at when the contingency plan was in place. No LSU fans or admin were arguing that the game HAD to be played IN Gainesville on that Saturday. The issue was that UF admin did not even try to create a contingency plan. I don't see how you aren't gathering this. It was the only thing everyone was barking about.

Also, did you have a moment to look into Rita and LSU vs UT? By all means, check it out and come back.

You want him to look up how LSU played a game two days after Rita hit even though the area was still reeling from the other major hurricane that hit less than a month before?

But that would destroy his entire narrative and make him look like a fricking moron. Why would he do that?

Again, LSU wanted to dictate the terms of UF's home game. Foley wasn't having it.

---

and if they'd have lost the game to LSU, at BR, he would've looked like an idiot for not accepting the neutral site option that not Alleva suggested, but also found the venue.

Not to mention Alleva offered to play Monday in Gainesville damage permitting. Since you refuse to acknowledge it, I'll go ahead and tell you, this is exactly what LSU did in 2005 against UT. LSU had a home game scheduled for Saturday, UT didn't want to travel for obvious reasons, so it was moved to Monday and was played. 91k fans showed up.

he would rather continue pretending it is impossible, apparently. Even though everyone knew the storm in Florida would be long gone by Monday.

This dude is acting like Foley "wasn't having it" when LSU was trying to still give him his home game.

Foley was immensely lucky Guice went the wrong direction, or he'd have looked like a fool for not agreeing to those terms.

Looks like 17 Sheritt would have tackled him for a loss. That is why he went left.

looks like a TD to me

85 agrees

you just going to continue to ignore the facts posted ITT?

you might shouldn't post about things that you didn't keep up with at the time. You likely weren't aware what LSU had offered.

LSU moved a game to Monday. Congrats. I have no idea how big a hurricane it was. It was no Cat 4, I promise you that. Katrina hit, had left, and you play a game two weeks later. You toot your horn about that

---

It was a Cat 3 when it hit on Saturday, September 24th. LSU played it's game on Monday, September 26th.

You continue to show that you're amazingly ignorant.
