Never mind that Tennessee has a much better historical record against Alabama then does LSU.
I don't have any problem playing Florida, and I don't have any problem with you playing Tenn.

But if "this is the year" you might find yourself in the Sugar Bowl vs TX instead of the playoff because you resume sucks.

When you finally play someone you’ll be prime time. With Utah St as an opponent your lucky to be on TV at all.

Arkansas, Vanderbilt and Ole Miss would be underdogs to Utah State (per Vegas power numbers).

LSU fans when Bama complained about having early kickoffs for home games in September:

"Schedule a better opponent."

No I really think it is not. I posted this on the Tiger rant and I am sure it pissed some fellow LSU fans off. Look at it without LSU glasses. Auburn-Florida gets the 2:30 game on CBS. Ole Miss-Vandy gets the SEC Network game at night and UGA-TENN get the ESPN game at night. Both are SEC conference games and should get priority over LSU-Utah State and Mizzou-Troy. So LSU gets the 11:00 AM slot when ESPN can market and hype LSU's high powered offense when there are not many other games to match it. Mizzou-Troy gets the SEC Network game in the same slot as Auburn-Florida. The only people watching Mizzou-Troy are Mizzou fans and Alabama folks whose kids play for Troy, the other Alabama people (Bama and Auburn fans) are going to be watching UF-Auburn, just like I will as soon as I can get home from the LSU-Utah State game.

The SEC has been good in honoring and respecting LSU's long standing tradition of night football, which dates back to 1931, when LSU and other SEC teams play non-conference cupcakes.

Not a conspiracy.

2014 is where there was an agreement reached by us and the conference under mike slive to honor our tradition of night games

You have linked this article multiple times across multiple boards and threads since this news broke. I guess you have trouble with reading comprehension because it's not as ironclad as you think. From your own link:

quote:

"One of the premises of permanent partners is tradition," Alleva said Tuesday at the LSU Tiger Tour. "Tradition at LSU is playing night games. Fortunately, commissioner (Mike) Slive agreed and he started conversations with ESPN and CBS where we will play I think the preponderance of our games at night. That doesn't mean we're going to be exclusively at night. They'll be exceptions where CBS is going to pick us in the day. But for the most part, we're going to play our games at night, and that's huge for our fans."


Has the SEC not held up their end of the deal?

And you started a thread on the Rant advocating leaving the conference over this shite?



You were given one non-conference day game in 5 years. ONE. Jesus, stop crying you fricking pussy.

Bama fans, by a huge margin, make fun of the billboard more than any other group.

You'd think it would be fans who didn't put up their own weak response billboard of their own, but gump gonna gump.

Or maybe y'all didn't realize Bama fans put up a billboard with a novel in 12 point comic sans on it that required a telescope to read in Baton Rouge.

Did that Alabama billboard originate from this site?

Well considering none of us here advocated for it, you'll have to forgive us for not remembering it.

I'm not sure how that matters, but it certainly was circulated here by yall. You think I troll your shitty websites?

Remember when it was under the guise of hurricane relief, but it only raised enough for this shitty sign?



Cognitive dissonance. Carry on.

Sure it matters. We make fun of the LSU billboard here, because the idea originated HERE.

I don't think I've ever even seen this billboard you are referencing.

You're probably too busy being a shitty poster here.



Yeah. Never seen that one before. It looks like a bad photoshop. You sure that's real?

I called it. When I first heard of Bama complaining about too many day games I predicted LSU's next home game would be at 11 am. lol.

My name isn't Blake and I don't have a Twitter account.

Is this honestly your best shot at a gotcha attempt?

A gotcha? You asked if it was a photoshop. I provided a link from the HGIC answering that question directly. No, I don't think you are Blake, moron.

I know for a fact there were threads about this last year on this board, because I posted in them. Saying you've never seen it before is why I called you a liar. How odd I had to spell that out to you.

Bama fans are all over the billboard a year later. And a year later, you're still the only fanbase to go so far as to lie about hurricane relief to put up response billboards.
