At least in '16 I can go see LSU play in Wisconsin, which will be pretty awesome. But if I want to watch LSU-Mizzou with my Mizzou family, I'll have to take another road trip that year.

Only 11 more years till I get to go to UGA again. yay!!!!!!

I don't care about having to play Florida every year, but I do have a problem with this. UGA is the best road game for LSU fans and we have to wait this fricking long to do it again... That is ridiculous.

Athens is more fun when your team isn't playing. So no need to wait...or try to use this 'we don't get to travel to x city' excuse to mask the previous gripes about inequality of opponent. Or is your AD just really concerend about fans travel plans?

Yeah I am kind of road game-less in 15 since I've been to multiple games in BR and Oxford and been to Nashville plenty. In 17 I will have to go to both Gainesville and UCLA or be forced to pick between the two

I think it's funny that it'll be SEVEN YEARS before we play aTm since them joining the league. That's insane. They won't even really feel like an SEC team to UGA by that point.

Probably for Auburn fans, but for some reason there is a mutual respect between LSU fans and UGA fans. I have always enjoyed going to UGA. It sucks I'm gonna have to wait 11 years to do it again for an LSU game.

Can't really complain about that. Would have liked to had the chance to go back to Oxford sooner, but I'll take it for what it is ... the best they can do.

I seriously doubt that format sticks through 2025 though.

Yeah that's ridiculous. Id rather be playing the east teams like UGA and TN more often than playing non cons like UCLA and Arizona State honestly. I'm sure not everyone agrees with me but that's how I feel

Why, we've done fairly well there over the years

Do you think this unique for lsu and uga fans. Maybe i'm the naive one but I've found most every schools fans to be respectful to visitors.

me too...it's why I go at least once a year.

it's clearly not ideal for you guys but it works out for the best.

I understand the fans point of view, but i just find it insincere when your AD is constantly griping about it.

In every thread that goes on here about who your favorite SEC team is besides your own it is almost always 70%+ LSU fans saying UGA and UGA fans saying LSU.

On the same note, Auburn fans consider UGA a "rival" so that game has more hatred or whatever you teams with rivals call it.

Either we need 9 games or we should haven't went to 14. No way we should have to wait fricking 12 years to go to a campus in our conference.

I think we both consider the other a rival.

Only after fairly/chop block.

Before that, and for most of us after, (because using 'here' as a temperature of fans is a fools errand) i wouldn't call it 'hatred.'

Seems like this is the kind of thing that would make just going there happen and not needing lsu playing as a requirment to make the trip.

Agreed. I say we kick two out. Boot Vandy and Arkansas, and call it a day.

I wish that we could split up Kentucky and Vandy instead of having them both home or away every year.

Our home schedule for one year will include Kentucky, Vandy and Mississippi State

What are the chances we are at 16 members before LSU makes it up here 9 years from now? Nice to see that Alabama will be headed back up here in 2025....when my now four year old can drive to the game!
