how? just how is that going to affect future bowl game selection? the way the system is we already got hosed by the sec and two higher ranking bowls? in addition, it is my understanding that LSU has to guarantee a certain amt of ticket sales and it's LSU's job to sell them or eat them. we will get better bowls in the future if we finish with a one loss or no loss season no matter how many LSU fans attend this bowl.

having said that, it will really look bad and be embarassing if no LSU fans show. it will be misinterpdreted and the chik-filet bowl officials do not deserve that. imo, it would be great if we attend en masse and spend abuot 20 minutes before the game "picketing" with signs denouncing the hose job given us by the sec scheduling. stay there until it hits the tv news. it won't happen but i think it would send a message to slives arse. it appears to me our AD doesn't stand up for us.

See preseason rankings. If we no show, play uninspired football, and do not sell hotel rooms it will affect things.

Say us and A&M are both 10-2 next year. USC is 9-3 and UGA is 10-2 and UF is 11-2 with a SECCG loss to an undefeated Bama.

With a shitshow this year, I guarantee you that Bama gets MNC, A&M gets BCS, UF gets Cap one, UGA gets outback, USC gets peach, LSU gets cotton despite beating A&M.

It's being said the NIU played a part in this by getting the AQ with their win the other night.
