UF and their administration are lowlife cowards. They had plenty of time to relocate the game anywhere and they did not do it. Sankey needs to be fired for allowing this instead of giving UF a forfeit.

Who would be ok with losing a home game, play 3 straight SEC teams on the road, and play A&M on short rest Thanksgiving night?


But you have no problem demanding Florida travel to Baton Rougue or a neutral site?

Saturday at Florida
Saturday at LSU
Sunday at Florida
Sunday at LSU
Monday at Florida

That is the bad luck of having a natural disaster hit when you are hosting. LSU gave up a home game in 05, USC did last year and Tennessee accommodated LSU in 05 to play on a Monday. Apparently UF is better than all of those schools and couldn't move their game.

The SEC would have paid LSU for their lost home game, but LSU refused



LSU pussed out like the whiny bitches they are.

you are demanding UF travel this weekend. That is another road game for them. Yet you refuse to travel on the 19th

Only guessing, but a Sunday or Monday game probably needed some guarantees for travel, TV, etc. Not sure how UF could be expected to give those assurances until Saturday. We have no idea if the parties were willing to wait that long.

LSU would rather play Eastern Idaho than Florida. Pussies


USA has a better winning percentage against the SEC this year than Florida does. So yeah, why wouldn't we prefer to play them?

I wasn't talking about the OP. I was talking about the multiple threads that have been started on this topic all day long. LSU fans were posting in those threads thinking the SEC buying out those games on the 19th would be a wonderful alternative.

You don't know what sort of impact this storm will have down there.....those resources may be needed for something more important than a football game.

LSU plays a game 5 days after 11/19. Florida has Mizzou at home next weekend and LSU has Southern Miss. Game could've definitely been playing Sunday or Monday.

Hopefully Matthew fricks the swamp up and the remaining schedule has to be played off campus. That would be funny karma.
