Only idiotic LSU fans would want to play a non conference scrub instead of a SEC game that could possibly help them win the conference.

LSU offered multiple solutions AND EVER OFFERED BUSES AND PLANES to help out. UF refuses, then offers this idiotic plan.
Look, I don't blame LSU for not wanting to reschedule the Florida game for the 19th, but that does sort of cancel out the narrative that it's all due to Florida being chicken. Both sides offered alternatives which the other rejected.

One side offered a viable alternative. The other did not.

#LSU offered to play Sat/Sunday/Monday either in Baton Rouge or Gainesville. #LSU had secured hotels in BR + NOLA. Even offered #LSU plane.

Love the stupid Gumps getting in on the act when they pulled the same cowardly stunt that Florida did in 1988 over Hurricane Gilbert -- who came no where near College Station.

Exactly. Both sides offered alternatives that neither were happy with based on revenue and competitive landscape.

They're either both scared or both calculating or both both.

Three months later, you moron before there was an SEC Title game and also when Alabama's QB was healthy.He was hurt in Sept and Curry whined his way out of that one.

So basically LSU is supposed to take the hit and Florida sacrifice nothing. That's the "compromise" Florida offered. Is Florida going to compensate local businesses for lost revenue, including game revenue? So the SEC will pay LSU!s buyout of the game itself. What about the remaining 8 million dollars? LSU would have profited zilch from playing the game in BR or a neutral site this weekend, yet Florida refused. They're pussies

No one cares about South Alabama but it is an unreasonable proposition to ask LSU to play @UF then @A&M 5 days later and to lose out on millions of dollars (not to mention millions more for the local economy) in the process.

If the game was moved to BR, I'm sure you would've been concerned about Gainesville area business revenue.

We've been for it

Trust me, no one ever wants to go to fricking Gainesville, Fl. By FAR the worst trip in the SEC.
