as long as we have a bye week the weekend before, I am cool with it.


Do you have a link that states the bye week stipulation? I don't remember that being part of it. I thought the agreement was the years it is played in College Station, it'll be on Thursday, and the years it is played in Baton Rouge it'll be on either Friday or Saturday.

Yeah that is what I thought too.

I am ok with either Thursday or Friday. Friday is more convenient, but Thursday twists the knife deeper. Alternating back and forth is kinda best of both worlds.

from the rant that was after an ESPNBR interview. He said it in an email to TAF members too I think, but I deleted the email

He also said that the only reason that he agreed to play A&M on Thanksgiving is because LSU would have a bye week immediately before and he wouldn't agree to play on Thanksgiving for years where that wasn't the case.
