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.

This is what's wrong with college football. All it does is keep the money in the same hands, and prevents us from seeing really interesting matchups. It's boring to see the same SEC teams play each other every year. It's ironic everyone will bitch that Boise doesn't play anybody, when these so-called "big teams" won't often play them as it is. Take a look at Alabama and how they have NO urge to play Tech at all. We have a winning record over them and slapped them twice in a row last time, so they have this weak "nothing to gain" attitude toward us. We need a playoff, because this BCS bullshite is ruining college football. With a playoff, LSU wouldn't be scared to play Boise.

I think ya'll are looking at it wrongly.

We are a better team than Boise State. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. Moreover, they would be playing in the heat of the Louisiana summer against us in Tiger Stadium. They have very little realistic shot at winning the game.

However, they are a decent team. Their only realistic shot at winning is if LSU overlooks them. This, then, would force LSU to prepare more stringently during the summer and two-a-days.

Plus, it would be a far more entertaining game to watch than Arkansas State or MTSU or whatever.

AND it is what college football needs.

There is much to be gained. National exposure on the first game of the season. Intensity in summer practices. Quality competition.
