2011 schedule:
sept 3 - TBD
sept 10 - northwestern state
sept 17 - @ miss state
sept 24 - @ west va
oct 1 - kentucky
oct 8 - florida
oct 15 - @ tenn
oct 22 - auburn
oct 29 - open
nov 5 - @ bama
nov 12 - southern miss
nov 19 - @ ole miss
nov 26 - arkansas
I notice several things:
LSU plays 8 straight weeks to start the season... in that run they have two early road games (to miss state and west virginia)... later they have 3 straight tough games with florida at home, tenn on the road and auburn at home
You can argue this schedule is tough enough and I agree... but provided this is a home game and ESPN is going to really make it financially worth LSU's while to take a risk I see a return on taking that risk
LSU will have to grow up in a hurry that year with the early road trips and tough three game set in the middle of the season... given the week after the potential boise matchup is essentially a gimme week to make corrections I think might actually make sense for LSU to take the risk and play their first tough game at home instead of on the road

Lsu doesn't need to schedule anymore hard ooc teams that year the schedule is hard enough. I know everyone wants to see Lsu kick boises arse but it makes 0 sense to play them.

The same thing I posted a few days back, a lot of people are scared for us to play them. Think about this. We play Boise early part of season, they go 11-1 and might be in the top ten. Even if we lose to maybe Tenn or Bama (think they are going to look really good) We still have that win to a 11-1 Boise St. team who beats all their opponents by at least ten.
