I'd like to see the women's team play right before the men's.
They used to back in the Dale Brown late 70s/early 80's "Crazy Days at LSU" time period.

I'd get there early (As did many students) and watch the women play, (Jinks Coleman-Julie Gross-Marie Bennie Jackson) while halfway trying to get some school work done. For the big SEC games, the student section in the Assembly Center was mostly full by the end of the women's game too. It was first come first served then with LSU ID admission. If you didn't arrive early, you didn't get a good seat.

Not only LSU, but the entire SEC should start scheduling the women's games right before the men's because it doesn't make any sense from a promotional and marketing stand point for the women and men to play on different days.

That will never ever happen. Moving them on the same day means among other things women's games won't be televised, the most important avenue of marketing and promotions.


Women's games only get around 1500-200 people so they wouldn't do much for men's attendance. Plus everyone saying they'd go to both probably wouldn't since women's games would have to start like 3-4 hours before men's games, imagine a women's game at 3 or 4 pm on a Wednesday, you wouldn't be going.
