when it came out that we offered November 19th and they said no.
Flat out wrong. And it wasn't a beat reporter that said this. Joe Alleva himself said they never brought up the November 19th date. That was just Florida trying to save face.
Florida=pussy
Yall scared

SEC said no
Foley: SEC made final call
Florida's release on Wednesday said that the game will be played in Gainesville and a final decision on the start time of the game will be made on Thursday.
This implies that the start time would be moved back to Saturday night or Sunday.

Jeremy Foley said that it was brought up and ESPN confirmed it. LSU said no because they're scared of 3 straight road games.
LSU = Pussies
See how we can both do that?

EVEN IF that were true. WHY IN THE frick would we have to give up a home game AND senior night because of Florida's frick up?

Strike 2 for you. Another link by you that still says nothing that states (or even implies) that Florida ever agreed to play on Sunday and/or that the SEC prohibited the game from being played on Sunday after LSU and Florida agreed to it.
I know you want it to be true so you can feel better about your admin. Some online poster might have told you it happened. But LSU says it did not, other SEC games moving to Sunday support that SEC doesn't oppose the notion and you have no evidence of this fiction you want to be fact.
It's ok for you to wish your admins weren't cowards. Not ok to spew fiction as fact to support what you wish was true

WHY IN THE frick does Florida have to give up a home game, a SEC game AND their biggest recruiting weekend of the year because of a natural disaster?

To be fair, it doesn't appear to be Florida's f' up. Appears to be Florida's willful intent and clever way to use storm as cover to avoid finding any way of having to play a ga,e vs LSU this weekend.

Announcing on Wednesday that a final decision on the start time of the game would be made on Thursday certainly implies that they were intending on pushing the game back to Saturday night or Sunday.
And what exactly is cowardly about the administration? They wanted to play the game in Gainesville. The SEC determined they couldn't. So the game got postponed. I hope you're not suggesting that Florida was so scared of 3-2 LSU that they conjured up a conspiracy with the SEC offices to have the game cancelled. Do you really believe that?

As it turns out, you didn't have to do any of that. You could have planned to contingently play the game at home on Sunday or Monday pending storm allowing. But instead Florida AD insisted the game would be Saturday in Gainesville or would not be played this weekend.

Wrong. Florida announced Wednesday that a final decision on the start time of the game in Gainesville would be made by the SEC on Thursday at 1. Then on Thursday the SEC pushed it back to 3. Then to 5. And then they said that the game couldn't be played so they postponed it.
Florida offered to make it up November 19th. LSU said no because they didn't want to play three straight road games.

Strike 3! Gave you 3 chances to show evidence of non fact that Florida AD was willing ever to plan a contingency to play on Sunday (or Monday). You obviously can't. The reason you can't is because it didn't happen. And the SEC certainly didn't veto it as it was never accepted nor wanted by Florida. Now you should stop pretending such fantasy happened - it did not.

The statement on Wednesday made by the athletic director said that they would announce the final start time of the game on Thursday at 1. That is your proof dipshit. That implies that they were looking to push back the game time or start it on Sunday. They don't put out links of negotiation transcripts.

Sort of like the conspiracy theory that Florida was scared of LSU? Give me a break

So now you are moving the goalpost?
ETA Multiple sites have reported that moving the game to Nov 19th was talked about. Alleva is the only person saying that is false.

So now you claim to know, only through your own implication, that something that nobody at Florida or the SEC has ever said actually happened and that LSU has specifically said did not happen must have happened? And asked for evidence, your proof is nothing except your strong wish it were true. If you want to pretend it happened to feel better about your cowardly admin, have at it. But even you have zero knowledge that it happened - but you spew it as if it's a known fact. Nobody has been quoted other than you to say it happened and LSU says it didn't happen.
Florida was ONLY willing to play this weekend if the game could be played Saturday at Noon in Gainesville. When that plan was deemed too risky to count on come Thursday afternoon, the game was canceled.
Florida admin was either incompetent or was betting a game it didn't want to play this weekend wouldn't be played this weekend if it insisted that Saturday Noon in Gainesville was the only option. I don't think your AD is incompetent. The jury is still out on you I'm sad to say - but you are not looking very competent in this thread so far.

And the theory (backed up by Florida AD actions) isn't that Florida was scared of LSU per se.
Instead, the theory is that Florida admin welcomed and manipulated the chance to avoid any SEC game this weekend as the Florida AD (and most Gator online posters early in the week and Vegas also agreed) doubted that Florida could avoid another SEC loss if it played an SEC game this weekend given the injuries. And since a 2nd SEC loss would make winning the SEC East near impossible, Florida admin narrowed the conditions under which Florida would play a game this weekend in light of circumstances presented by the weather in a way that made the chance to avoid playing a game this weekend very likely.

You're an idiot. Call vegas. #18 in the polls and LSU is spotting you points at your house with a new defensive coach and a new head coach. LSU told you it was unreasonable to believe you could play a home game after a CAT 4 hurricane and you said "nah, we got this." Lsu put every reasonable offer on the table to play and you refused. STFU.
