Alleva says teams too scared to play LSU in FB by Latarian

ironic coming from a guy who has bitched for years about how unfair cross-division rivalries are.

Your original post is a mis-quote bald-face lie.
This is what actually came out of the man's mouth:

"Literally 80 percent just say 'no' right away" when LSU contacts potential opponents, Alleva said Tuesday morning on 104.5 FM ESPN's Culotta & The Prince radio show.

"They're a little more open to the so-called neutral-site game. That's why we were able to attract a Wisconsin, a TCU ... BYU in the future...

"Teams don't want to come to Tiger Stadium and get their butts beat. That's just a fact of life. I'm being as blunt as I can be...they don't want to schedule losses."

"Bitched for years?" YEARS ????????
All Alleva said was that: Alabama has had Tennessee as their 'permananet' cross-division East rival for decades, BUT,
LSU had KENTUCKY as their 'cross-division' East rival for decades also, going back almost 70 years. Why was LSU not allowed to keep them as their 'permanent' cross division opponent, but Bama was allowed to keep Tennessee ?????????????
Why ??? Does anyone have an answer? ANYONE ????

Also Socrates, Alleva never said cross division rivalrieSSSSSSSSS (plural) He was only talking about Florida..- ONE (singular)
