The heat for that game was beyond comprehension

You know what…..you’re right. My bad.
LSU fans are the ONLY people who have ever had to deal with heat before.
We’ve had to deal with those situations as well. Stop pretending like it’s unique to you. We would ALWAYS get those early hot as frick games at the beginning of the year as well. I had to get treated for heat exhaustion back when I worked for the athletic department when he had that stupid as shite black rubber field. The difference between locations is not nearly as big as you’re making it out to be.
Again, that is not what I said, quite misrepresenting what I said. Does Oxford have hot and sticky games in September, yes, but does it have as many as Baton Rouge? No. That is my point. I think I clearly said you have schools further North than both Baton Rouge and Oxford, that you can play games in the 230 window in the first 3 weeks of September, Norman, Columbia, Lexington, are the top 3 with Nashville, Fayetteville and Knoxville the other 3. That gives you 6 teams that you can schedule good games for TV for those 2:30 slots.
Baton Rouge the first 4 weeks (this year) with 5 playing dates in September, no, not a good option. I would say the same thing for Gainsville, College Station and Austin given where they are geographically further South than the other 12 teams in the league.
The other 6 teams not in the 6 I cited above, yes they can have very hot and humid games as well, more so than the 6 schools further geographically North than the others, but not as often as those 4 further south.
It is an objective fact that South Louisiana and thus LSU is going to have a > probability of having both high temps and high humidity than other schools, save Florida, Aggie and Texas who are going to be similar.
Once it gets to October, then ok. If people want to be objective and not just troll (which there is that here), we have the weather data for Temps, Humidity, dew point, heat index to look at this with data.

The real question is why did LSU choose this game to finally wear a dark uniform?
Since it was a non-SEC game, who allow the home team to choose what they want to wear, the NCAA rule says the Home team has to wear the dark color and UCLA I suspect did not waive the rule and chose to wear their whites with baby blue vs. their Home blue with gold.

If you've never been in those east seats for a day game when it's hot, you don't get to bitch about fans leaving. You ain't even there.

Were the fans out there for multiple days or just one day?

I was there on that side low to the ground and it honestly could've been worse. The humidity was lower and there was a breeze FWIW.

One of the EMTs there had a thermometer gun and said the bleachers were around 125 degrees.
Was a brutal afternoon for sure.

pankReb. I have no clue, I live in Baton Rouge and went to the game, I don't do any of the tailgate stuff.
All I know is with the way Tiger Stadium is built with 92 degrees and 60-65% Humidity or whatever it exactly was the heat index was 102. In the lower level on field, temps hit 130. All I can say is thank God I don't sit in the lower bowl part of Tiger Stadium, but the endzone part of the Original Tiger Stadium before all the additions to the upper decks (West/East and South Endzone).
Athlon sports had a reporter for the game (national media), not local, and he reported at halftime that there were at least 70 people that had heat exhaustion/potential strokes that needed EM.

Then why does Kiffin bitch about fans leaving early from a 60,000 seat stadium when the weather is just fine in Oxford?

He brushes his teeth with it…

You are about as dumb as a sack of rocks.

We all left the stadium early to go bang a bunch of ole miss chicks who said that they hadn't experienced real men since last years OP / LSU game ..

Half time LSU fans was bailing out and leaving.
Not saying our fans have never done it when we get blown out.
But lately I’m proud of our fan base
I like LSU nothing against the fans.
They need to get behind the team remember fans account for at least 1 touchdown.
Especially in a close game you need the fans

Stadium looks like that and that’s still more people than your pitiful stadium can hold

No one said anything about Ole Miss fans leaving early because no one cares.
