Ed Orgeron was asked Monday about the rumors that there was no air conditioning in LSU's locker room this past Saturday at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium where temperatures were approaching 100 degrees throughout the day.

Orgeron confirmed that there was no air conditioning but said they were prepared for it because they spoke with officials at Louisiana Tech, who played the Longhorns in Austin the week before.

To deal with the heat, LSU brought fans from Baton Rouge and set them up in the locker room.


Orgeron added that he didn't think the air conditioning situation had anything do to with cramps players were dealing with during the game but said they will do more IVs at halftime to prevent that from happening again.

Sounds like Texas should get the opportunity to change on the bus next year.

There is no reason any major football team should not have air conditioning in the visitors locker room. Also, a good gesture by Louisiana Tech to at least give us the heads up.

There should be NCAA consequences if a school pulls shite like that on a 100 degree day. Or any day. They should have to provide reasonably suitable facilities and not certainly not sabotage them.

Agree. Shld be like the Headset rule (NFL, not sure about NCAA), if one side doesn't work the other side can't use thiers.

They didn’t tell LSU in advance. The tip had to come from La Tech. No mercy next year!

This is seriously fricked up, and very dangerous from a player safety issue.

I’ve always hated the attempts to gain an advantage by giving visitors shitty locker rooms. Not saying they have to be luxurious or anything, but they should have everything that’s needed, AC, enough trainer tables, lockers, restrooms, showers, etc. What Texas did shows a complete lack of class and sportsmanship.

LSU should have "plumbing issues" in the visitor's locker room for the game next year.

Pay back should be hell next season. Give them 3,000 seats at the top row of the upper deck. Put their band in a corner of the highest points in the upper deck and turn the heat on in the visitor locker room. Maybe give them access to the locker room only 45 minutes before the game.

Band in the nose bleed, minuscule allotment of tickets of visitors, and no A/C in the visitor locker room..... ALL by design.... Chicken shite, but apparently that’s UTx

Y’all realize if LSU had pulled this crap what the national narrative would be? This would a huge story all over yahoo and espn just trashing us. Not sure if anyone will care much about Texas doing this. I hope I’m wrong. This is surprising at this level and given the player safety time of today.
