players,fans, visitors - all getting deprived of what makes LSU football special.
At some point got to stand up to CBS.
national exposure is great
but i'd rather keep the secret and enjoy Saturday Night in Tiger Stadium
as opposed to the sweltering sweat drenched miserable-fest at the venue formally known as Death Valley

afternoon kick-offs are fine occasionally vs. lesser opponents, but when all our best games get moved to the afternoon

anyone else agree?

LSU needs to play well regardless what time the game is.

Day games take away part of Death Valley. Our enemies feel too welcome in the daylight...

It was a good thing the game at Florida was at night...no telling how badly we would have lost had it been a day game.

Day games are making our program you dumbasses.


The more tv coverage LSU gets, the more money LSU gets, the more recruiting prestige LSU gets, the better reputation LSU gets.


It's very freaking simple.

Don't worry, LSU fans will be able to bring back the magic against Troy and Tulane.

LSU hs ZERO control of this unless you want them to leave the SEC. Why don't people know this?

look you can say I'm not a real fan or whatever, but I become less interested/excited about going to LSU football games played in the afternoon. To me, it's the not the same,not as much fun.

One of the players actually stated last week that they like day games. I know our percentage of wins during day games used to be significantly lower. That was because in those days we were playing significantly better football teams. Let's find a more concrete "excuse"! Doesn't seem to affect Texas, Alabama or some of the other programs we would like to keep up with.

Nobody's saying you're not a real fan, just that you're a fricking retarded one. We have zero say if CBS wants to televise our games in the afternoon.

Since the inane crackdown on that scourge known as "alcohol" in the stadium, it just isnt the same.
