A school like LSU should never play a FCS school. It's essentially buying a win--Appy State not withstanding.

I believe that LSU needs to schedule schools that provide a challenge because LSU should not shy away from formidable competition and because of what they charge for tickets.

Plus why should someone buy tickets when watching on tv is cheaper especially against an opponent where you are buying a victory?

One thing I like about the new playoff system is that playing FCS schools may hurt you in getting a playoff spot.

Can't wait for the ULM game next year. Hoping that friends from Monroe come down here.

Why does Alabama play Chattanooga?
Why does Florida play Georgia Southern?
Why did Arkansas play Samford?
Why does Auburn play Western Carolina?
Why does Georgia play Appalachian State?
Why did LSU play Furman?

All of these schools are in the Southern Conference
Another school Citadel plays Clemson

while i agree, alabama played georgia st this season. they're technically a FBS school but they're still not eligible for post season play until next season. i hate playing FCS schools, but everyone does it. if you want to blame something, blame the 12 game schedule.
