Ag's, if you are going the rescheduled game in October, do not stay in Shreveport/Bossier. Get a hotel in Marshall, Longview or Tyler.
Eat before the game in Texas and head home after the game. Fill up your car on the Texas side of the border.
Try not to spend a penny in that low rent place.
So butt hurt... Are you really that upset because a game was rescheduled for a hurricane? You are blaming a whole state because of it?

How does carving up Louisiana Tech for close to 600 yards of offense and 50 points (like we did 2 years ago) prepare us for LSU?
You forget that the following players for A&M are still starting, keeping in mind that Jerrod Johnson was QB during that game, not Tannehill: (with their stats against La. Tech in 2010)
Christine Michael - 14 carries, 107 yards 2 TD
Uzoma Nwachukwu - 2 catches, 45 yards, 2 TD
Ryan Swope - 5 catches, 50 yards
Dustin Harris - 2 punt returns, 54 yards, 1 TD
Damontre Moore - 7 tackles (3 TFL including 2 sacks), 3 forced fumbles

Ole Miss should benefit from this the most. If I were Sumlin, I would spend 2 weeks preparing to BEAT THAT arse.

Word trickling out that La Tech athletic director has been trying to postpone this game since it was small cloud coming off the west coast of Africa.....

Yea, cause the residents of La had what to do exactly with the game being rescheduled?! Don't be Stupid....how about you just sit your A$$ at home on the 13th...like you were going to do anyway. I always heard that Aggies don't travel well...

It's fricked up but an easy way to sell more tickets, and probably a lot more. Poor A&M will be lucky to make a bowl with their schedule now.

Ags were very upset to see Mushchump leave UT. I seem to recall trying to take up a collection to help UT keep him on the staff.
Not sure if Ags are hurt more by the postponement of the game since the offense is somewhat new or if Florida is more hurt because they don't get any film.
We are going to find out soon.

It's been mentioned by both your AD and the WAC commissioner that the city of Shreveport was involved in the decision. The hotels are refusing to allow people to cancel their rooms since your POS AD waited until after the deadline to postpone the game, and all the rates for the 13th are double what they were. I doubt it is a coincidence that the announcement was made 30 min after the deadline was passed. Considering the game wasn't cancelled for weather, but because your AD and the city of Shreveport is a bunch of greedy cowards, I don't see the reason Ags should be further exploited by them.
And how many times do we have to settle the ticket sales debate? It was your home game on a Thur night in fricking Shreveport. In spite of this a LOT of Ags bought tickets directly from La Tech's allotment in addition to our own, and there were going to be around 15k Ags there. Maybe if YOUR shitty arse fans traveled all of the 30 min it takes for you to get to YOUR home game, they wouldn't have postponed it.

I was not a big fan of the game being postponed, wish it could have happened on Friday and I understand how doing it on Saturday with the Port-City Classic (Grambling vs Alcorn) would be problematic at best but after watching Isaac for the past few hours, they may have made the best choice. They currently have the center of the storm going over Minden, which is ~30 miles east of Shreveport, almost right at kickoff. We'll have to see how Isaac does once it finally gets its entire eye on land, its been taking its sweet time.

Couldn't that theoretically result in a class action lawsuit against the Louisiana Tech AD from multiple plaintiffs?

You are a LA TECH fan. We do not respect you or your school. STFU and go to the WAC Rant; it should exist for at least one more football season.

Options were open to move it to an alternative site any day Thurs-Saturday, the La Tech AD said no. Why the frick should we want to spend MORE money in the state of LA? People already aren't getting their money back from Shreveport hotels. You think anyone is going to show up on Oct 13? I doubt La Tech will sack up and offer ticket refunds either.
