I assume you're referring to the 2005 game where you went to Tempe to play unranked Arizona State (who combined for 5 losses that year)?
So you're comparing an in-conference game against #22 Florida to... Arizona State? Oh wow, how brave of you! Friggin Lionheart over there!
Yes, that's exactly what I'm referring to
I want you to close your eyes and imagine these roles being reversed. A hurricane heading towards Louisiana, and LSU refusing to play Florida in Baton Rouge on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and also refusing to move to play in Gainesville, New Orleans, Mobile, etc. Basically anywhere besides LSU
How big of a trollfest is this site? How many threads are there calling out LSU as cowards ESPECIALLY given the narrative on this site for the past 5 years is that LSU is scared of playing Florida as a cross divisional rival.
You and me both know the answer. So Florida along with everyone else who's dickriding them for the sole reason of riling up the majority fanbase on this site can get fricked

And in that instance, I'd defend LSU just like I'm currently defending Florida and I know I'd damned sure defend Bama, if the roles were reversed.
Here's what it boils down to:
1) LSU wants to play this weekend, wherever and whenever, Saturday/Sunday/Monday. They want to play this because they appear to be the hotter team right now and because UF is injured.
2) Florida does not want to play this weekend because they have injuries to their main strength, the Defense. Florida would prefer to play this game at home (understandably) and at a later date.
Both schools have their own competitive advantage points to why they want to play, when they want to play. No one is right or wrong and that's why I'm not going to blame UF anymore than I am going to blame LSU.
