re: Why don’t we play neck?

- To make ESPN and the cable crowd happy- To hell with them. They don’t give a shite about our night games. Put some cat in the booth and cut the crowd noise when that part comes up. LSU is trying to make the tv crowd happy and not the people that actually go to the game.

ESPN is actually our ally in this war. They would LOVE to broadcast all of our games at night. We rarely ever have a day kick with them and the last one was probably close to a decade ago. The only reason CBS slots us in the day is because that's their only only window. I guess they want the contract so that they have a "prime time" game that doesn't go up against actual prime time ABC, ESPN, Fox, NBC games. The only enemy here is CBS and LSUs inability to reject playing in a time slot it doesn't want.

ETA: And also Joe Alleva for being completely neutered whenever faced with the slightest bit of resistance. Literally every time there's a conflict that needs resolving, Joe Alleva takes the path of least resistance and LSU suffers.
