No they probably anticipate being at LSU v Alabama and do not want to go to the same place for than once a year if they can help it.

Yep.

Except for 2011, 2010, 2006, and 2005 in the Miles era....

If we lose and USC/Oregon win out, there is no way they are here.

ESPN Radio Ganeday will...but not the TV.

Didn't game day come to LSU 2 or 3 times in one year?? I think if we dominate the Aggie's like we did South Carolina there is a good chance they come to BR for the Bama game.

I would think BR has hosted gameday more than most schools. Anyone know the answer to this?


We are like in a 5 way tie for 4th place.

We aren't the most visited site in the conference. (Florida has 11, we have 8)

They try to spread it around. Don't know if they will be here for Bama because that is USC/UO week also and I assume that game will be on ABC. Since we will be on CBS that may make the decision for them.


it didn't last year

Never would have thought that.

I do think the gameday appeal has lost its luster amongst our fans.

If the ducks are undefeated & USCw only has one loss, book it that GameDay will be there. ESPN is owned by Disney who also owns ABC & ESPN will be pimping USCw all the way.

If they already have one of the premier games on one of their own networks, wouldn't it make more sense to use Game Day to capture the other market?

USC and Oregon play that same day on ABC, so I wouldn't call it totally predictable.


This is what I am talking about. It seems like they go to both Eugene and the Coliseum about every year (or every other year) too. Years go by without them coming to BR even when we are good.

If LSU and Bama winner wins out, that team is in BCSNCG no doubt. But if USC beats Oregon, then Oregon beats them in the Pac 12 Championship game, I don't think they get it if Kansas State or Notre Dame are undefeated. So why would they go to that game?

Undefeated Bama at 1-loss LSU is still the game of the college football season. GameDay will be there.
