My reasons;

*Mid-Week early game. (I don't know about anyone else, but I work NY Eve and NY Day). Would have to take 4 days off to make this event.

*Overall cost (excluding tickets) of making this event. Travel, Hotel, Food, etc.

*Opponent - Unranked and has zero excitement level for LSU fans. (No disrespect for Iowa. I think they will give LSU a game and could win if we pull an Ole Miss)

*Overall Season outcome - Team did not live up to expectations. The inconsistent play of performing up or down to your opponent is not flying with LSU fanbase

*Expectation Level - It's been discussed before. It's NC, BCS Bowl, or nothing. LSU is a spoiled fanbase since winning the Nattys and it is what it is.

I for one am in the camp that cannot afford to attend LSU games at these inflated prices and TAF fees. I just don't have that disposable income. If I had the money, I would because I love anything LSU. I for one am very thankful for Cable and HDTV. Otherwise, it's radio, which I don't mind.

I've been to pretty much every bowl game past 10 years.
The thrill is gone for me, especially as you said for some crap Iowa team.

My tv and lazy boy are hard to beat.
Free too.
