They pick the two they want. And they haven't announced times either.

Ah. So they get the first 2 picks. I'm assuming those are the biggest games of that day. They'll prob go to Oxford in the day and LSU at night. Not sure what gameday would do then. Doubt there is a match up as big as those anywhere

I cannot believe there are some people who think this is even in question. The winner of the LSU-Florida game has won the national title for the last 3 years. Both teams have 2 BCS titles this decade.
Give me a break if you think Ole Miss - Alabama would have any shot.

Assuming we're all undefeated, do you think GameDay chooses Baton Rouge for the LSU/Florida game or Oxford for the Ole Miss/Bama game?

think about it. Florida will be # 1 if that scenario plays out. They would much rather choose Florida. But I think who gives a shite right now.

this is all I'm worried about, and is much more important than the gameday set on the parade grounds

I say Oxford.. yes i'm a bit biased (so are you LSU fans saying baton rouge)but they've never been to Oxford and Ole Miss hasn't had this much hype and this high of a ranking in forever

plus we have the Grove.. go ahead LSU peeps talk shite about it but there is no place like it

There is bias and then common sense. I realize OSU-USC is a bigger game than LSU-Vandy

True... the last four years Ole Miss and Alabama games have come down to the wire by 4 points or less

LSU Florida... not so much

Maybe but the last time it was in Tiger Stadium, that was one for the ages. How many times did Miles go for it on 4th down? Like 4/4 or something crazy. That win really set us up to get into the NC.
