Traffic sucks, but it pretty much has sucked for decades now. TV is a huge issue.

However, one final thing is the limited number of traveling fans from some opponents. SEC teams typically sell their allotment. OOC teams, however, not so much. That is why I like the in-state rotation versus playing some directional school. Eastern Michigan isn't going to bring what La Tech, ULL or even ULM do. Heck, NW St. brought more people than Ga. Southern (a school coming off of a 10 win season playing at LSU for their first time). Like as not, empty seats for rent-a-win games cost LSU quite a bit of money each season.

TLDR

TV and traffic are a problem

Creativive scheduling can fill seats and make money.

That is the number 1 reason I don't go to many games anymore.

You'll be happy to learn that LSU is working on the problem--I ran into the guy that does gameday traffic at A&M when I was in Baton Rouge for our game in November, and he said LSU had hired him to consult on the issue. Of course, all the consultation in the world won't make up for the fact that Baton Rouge has pretty crappy infrastructure when it comes to streets, but this guy will help you get the most out of what you've got.

Really? What is the point in a post like this. I bet some Dawgs fans would trade with them. I would.

It seems like some of our fans like winning where it doesn’t matter, recruiting and filling stadiums.

Where can I get my ring and shirt?

Yet the score remains 37-10.
You just can't handle losing to LSU.
Why is that?

1. More fans watch LSU play in TS and on TV than watch UGA. Sorry, don't care about percentages.

2. 36-16 and 37-10. Buh bye!

Lies and statistics. Georgia is so far behind Alabama, Texas A&M and LSU in total attendance it’s not even in the bill park, literally. If it weren’t for playing those teams your attendance is a joke.
