re: What if South Alabama says no

I am first a huge LSU fan and a USA alumnus (or should I say alumni because I graduated twice from USA?). To me, forcing USA to take the money makes LSU into a bully--the same as Florida already has done to the SEC and others. To USA, it might not be as much the money as the experience of playing a top-tier program--USA is building a program and needs the game played to establish history. It would be something like inviting a singer to The Voice and not even giving them a tryout because they wanted to accommodate a diva. And Florida has become the diva with a sore throat who has manipulated the SEC just as a bully has done the schoolyard. My opinion...
