Not saying I disagree, but I find it kinda funny that LSU fans bitch about how hard the schedule is, then bitch about the cupcake schedule. Should we play AT Sam Houston State?


I think the complaint is not so much the easy schedule, but the cost for that schedule. It is a "why pay full price" for a NFL pre-season game kind of argument.

Well, the cost of the rent-a-win games is cheaper than the SEC games...$70 vs $40.

But, no, "the market" will never force LSU to stop playing these games. People would have to stop buying season tickets for that to happen, and there is no sign of that happening anytime soon.

By cupcakes are you referring to teams that could never beat a big time program , say like UAB. Oh wait a minute, having a flashback.
OK how bout Furman, 2700 students, co-ed so about 1300 men. Liberal Arts School knock off another 1000 that can't do a push up. Eliminate shut-ins, homs , special needs kids, Cartman and Kenny, then add 4 professors and two dykes on bikes, you got a team. And you call this a cupcake!
Geez. Rather see us play MNBLA and beat the crap out of them.
