I think so. It makes the team focus more during the off season when there is a marquee game to start the season rather than a cupcake. Look what Oregon did for 2011. Just think what having Oklahoma, USC, FSU, ND, PSU, MSU, or Miami would do for offseason preparations.

That's definitely a big part of it. I think if we'd opened the season with Sam Houston State, we wouldn't have looked nearly as good as we did on Saturday (disregarding suspensions, etc.). Sets up well for the long run.

Exactly!!! These are the teams LSU should schedule, Ucla, Stanford, OK, FS, Ohio State, USC, Oregon, Texas, OK State, Miami, Michigan, USC, please USC! Anyway the teams that give you respect in others eyes across the country. Teams that everyone THINKS are world beaters. Then LSU comes in and kills all their dreams and hopes. The teams that at the end they say damn LSU is pretty good, so is Les miles. Teams that leave no question who daddy is look if we would of lost that game it would of propelled Wisky probably to a playoff birth, but we win and move up a spot? I mean if your going to do it, why not do it big, at the same time you get crazy TV ratings. LSU vs USC would get the whole nation watching and put em in their place too all at the same time
