Lets hope not, I've been opposed to this suggestion from the first time I heard it, but if the NFL is going to play on NBC on Thanksgiving Night from now, it would be mind bogglingly stupid to play opposite that game.

Most likely. At least it's two more days to get ready for the SECCG.

I agree...

A 2:30 or even better a 6 PM game on Friday would be so much better. Gives most fans enough time to get to town and tailgate some.

What does the NFL playing have to do with anything?

I wouldn't mind testing it out one year just to see what it's like to watch a LSU game after all that turkey.

Only if its an 8 pm kickoff, this gives plenty of time for turkey, then the game, however my first choice is always Saturday!

Playing a game in tiger stadium on thanksgiving night is as bright as having one on some random other Thursday night game.
We aren't virgina or nc state, or Syracuse,or rutgers.


frick... people.

The down side to Friday is that is the worst day for students. With a Thursday game, they can just postpone the trip home until after the game and still have 3 days. With a Saturday game, they can come back early. Friday just completely screws up the weekend for the students.

Hell no I am fine with a friday game but it would cause so many problems with family if the game was on thanksgiving.

Won't happen. Too much tv money at stake; won't risk going against nfl on tv.
