Don't know. What has almost every LSU fan claimed Alleva offered Monday?
Just curious since you are parsing hairs over what Alleva "offered".
What did Florida, the host site, offer? It is their responsibility to come up with options, not the visiting team. LSU was willing to come Saturday up until the time the decision was made that it could not be played at that date/time.

Florida believed all week the game would have been playable this weekend. From Barnhart:
I talked to Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley late Thursday afternoon. His explanation was simple: As of Wednesday at 4 p.m., it looked as if the storm was on a track that would’ve made Saturday’s game possible with a later kickoff than noon, as was originally scheduled.
Obviously, the folks at LSU look at things different. LSU’s position is it went the extra mile to relocate the game to Baton Rouge and Florida said no because the possibility existed that the game could be played Gainesville.
