Hmmm wasn't to long ago that LSU fans hated that friday afternoon game..

Don't lump me in with those people, I've always liked the game on Friday.

And I believe Alleva needs to be done away with for several reasons, this would just be another one.

What advantage would there be to playing on Thanksgiving night up against the NFL game instead of playing in our own established timeslot on Friday against no other TV competition?

From what I understand the three NFL games that play on thanksgiving are over by the time that the UT/A&M game was usually played. I'm sure Slive/ESPN/ABC will just slide us into that timeslot. I don't see it as being terrible for rating because of the market you are trying to introduce it too.
