Alleva, the buffoonish boss of LSU's sports program, still hasn't called UF to atone for the ridiculous rhetoric of a few weeks ago when he actually tried to shame the Gators into playing the Tigers as Category 4 Hurricane Matthew was closing in on our state. It's still unfathomable to me that a public official from Louisiana of all places — a state that should know something about catastrophic storms — would be so callous and insensitive as to even suggest the Gators were running scared and didn't want to play LSU on Oct. 8.

You would expect such idiotic talk from the lunatic fringe on college football message boards, but not from an AD at a fellow institution of higher learning. Alleva even wrote emails to his staff claiming Florida was trying to duck LSU in order to give itself a better chance of winning the SEC East.

I tried to link that article this morning and failed. Mike bianchi hates LSU for some reason. Then he picks LSU by 7. I tried to comment on the article but you have to buy a subscription.

I'm just wondering if Bianchi used mouthwash when he was done swallowing Foley.

Olgoi Khorkhoi: Orlando Sentinel owes readers apology for poorly worded article title.

I know newspapers can't afford editors these days, but most freshman college english majors would edit for resume experience.

The only thing Florida deserves is a beatdown.

And they are going to get it.

Something tells me that Foley never reached out to LSU or any other university in advance of the storm, to see how they've handled similar situations in the past and what they may have learned good or bad. He really did not want to play that game.

Don't forget that Jeremy Foley was insisting the game would be played Saturday at noon in Gainesvile WHILE A CATEGORY 4 HURRICANE WAS CLOSING IN ON THEIR STATE.

Foley insisted on it and was confident until the day before it was to hit Gainesville (thursday).

Yep, we obviously owe that idiot, who can't read a forecast map, an apology.
