I like it. For the first time there will not be a break in practice routine and emotion like there has been for the Friday and Saturday games against AR. IMO that has been a reason for the poor LSU performances against AR. LSU doesn't play the week before so getting the team ready should be much easier. I wish they played the game at LSU the same way.

Actually a part of the things that TX A&M wanted was that Thanksgiving Day Game against LSU so they could give U of TX the one finger salute. So the SEC told A&M they would give it to them as soon as possible.

Yep. My question is how much say did LSU have in the matter? Did we volunteer or were we coerced by the SEC head office?

The game with Arky always blew because they parade all of the seniors out pre-game and give their mamas or baby mamas roses. It is all mushy and teary eyed... And then..... it takes 3 quarters to pull their testosterone levels back up.

That is why we always played that game WAYYY tooo close.

It has nothing to do with rhythm of preparation.
