Saturday nights belong to college football.

This game should have been scheduled for a Thursday or Friday night, or Saturday during the day.

These 2 schools knew this was going to be a huge game, and they knew LSU-Ole Miss was was more-than-likely going to be a played that Saturday night.

Shame on both schools, especially whoever was involved with decision.

If this game was being played anytime but during the LSU game (Thurs., Friday, or even during the day Saturday), I would go.

it's CBS's fault... LSU-Ole Miss was a CBS game candidate and they don't select that till like the week of the game, so Rummel schedules the game at 2 to avoid LSU and CBS picks it. that's happened before probably.

now that I think about it, Tulane is off this weekend, they could have played on Friday night there... maybe they would have if Jesuit was the home team, but Rummel is all about Metairie even if their roster isn't

Unfortunately, Rummel doesn't have much say in when they play their home games. First priority at Yenni stadium goes to the Jefferson Parish East Bank public schools, then Rummel gets what's left. This weekend it looks like Bonnabel gets Friday night, Grace King gets Saturday morning and Haynes Academy gets Saturday afternoon. Not that either Rummel or Jesuit would want to play Thursday, but that would have been taken as well with Riverdale.
