Should LSU play tougher non-conference schedule

I would like to see some marquee teams come to Tiger Stadium in the future rather than Western Kentucky or Sewanee.

No.
LSU had great of a schedule as you can have in 2011. What good did it do? All for not..
You play in the SEC, you don't need tougher non-con scheduling..

Case you haven't noticed the last several national champs haven't had the toughest schedule. LSU plays a hard enough in conference schedule so I am gonna say NO.

University of the South, charter member of the SEC. They are D-3 now, I believe.

God, no. Standard rantard hyperbole from OP.
ETA: We last played them in 1932

Everyone would. It won't happen. These games get scheduled years in advanced. Like TCU. If they were still in the Mac they prob would be a higher ranked team.
Plus any decent team we play, will be neutral site.

We don't have to get elite teams in the OOC schedule, but there should be BCS teams. I'd like 2 BCS teams and two lower conference teams. No FCS games.

Sounds great on paper, but it's nearly impossible to implement.

We generally play 1 marquee OOC game each year. With the brutal SECW, along with FL as our east opponent, I think that's plenty tough.

In this day and age its all about titles. Whatever is the best path to them is what LSU will take. Titles = Revenue so getting big teams to come here isn't going to be easy at all/a loss would suck.

Yes, fans want exciting football, players want fans. If we can't finish in the top 4 in any given year (expected to be 8 in the future)even with a tougher schedule, then we don't deserve to be in the NC hunt.
