Or the SEC could have stepped up and moved the game instead of messing up other teams schedules or completely canceling a game. If the game doesn't play this week, one of those two are going to happen. Why should LSU have to give up a home game to make it up if they make it up on the USA weekend. Or why should we have to give up our scheduled bye week bc florida refused to lose a home game bc of something that is beyond anyone else's control
I get what you're saying and it's a totally rational and reason question but in my opinion, it should be up to Florida as to what to do. They said either we're playing it in on our field, in front of our fans or we're not playing it at all and take the advantage given by it. The SEC shouldn't have the power to force a team to give up home field advantage (which we all know is huge in college football).
You can agree with Florida's reasoning or not, but some of the takes I've read on here are outrageous. It's a business decision. You just happened to be on the wrong side of this one.

Its not up to Florida, its ultimately up to the SEC and they blew it.

It's a business decision in favor of Florida not LSU if we have to lose a home game
I don't blame Florida for doing what they did here. I blame the SEC for letting it play out this way.

They have the power to declare a forfeit.
Which, right now, given the options presented to your school which were rejected, is exactly what they should be doing.

We also offered to play in an empty stadium. UF didn't offer up Sunday as an alternative.either. Maybe if UF offers to pay the USA buyout, we might consider it.... But LSU should refuse that.
With that said, hope everyone in FLA is safe with minimal damage. However may a tornado strike Tebow/Spurrier Field at Ben Hill Griffin Foley Stadium
