LSUs argument is that it's technically still a home game for UF. Y'all are delusional if you truly believe that because Florida gets the money from the game, it makes it a Florida home game. The home field advantage of having the game in the Swamp vs. one of the hardest places to play in the SEC is what the difference it. It fricking sucks.

It would be a bad situation, most Gators are going to be pretty upset if that is what they decide.

It won't be that tough of a venue. I think only 45k showed up for USCe. I'd expect similar for UF if it is moved.

I think there was less than 45k in the stands for the USC game last year.

we absolutely won't.

People already have other plans. Big wedding weekend too. My entire family which is probably 30+ people that go to games will be unable to attend

We have a group of 28 that goes to every game. Only 4 of us can actually make it if it's moved to Tiger Stadium. People of weddings, kids' stuff, etc, that are planned around away games and bye weeks. It will be empty.

That isn't the LSU argument really. The game has to be moved, which sucks, but it isn't LSU's fault, and LSU isn't PROFITING from it like we would a home game.

If any fanbase understands this situation, it is LSU

Just for reference this is what we were able to get there last year for USCe.

At 11am with 2 days notice it will be far far short of the toughest place to play.

There will probably be less people at this game than USCe last year if it is moved. I would have prefered this game stay in Florida so we can have an idea of How Coach O does on the road before they get to November.

if that's the case, they should honor tickets already sold for the swamp, and allow a first come, first served seating arrangement. there's no sense in making someone sitting in the nose bleeds if they're seats available closer to the field.

I'm pretty sure LSU allocated a big block of tickets to USCe last year. USCe gave credits to their ticket holders but they had to buy new tickets through LSU.
