Bad timing with a home lineup of Sam Houston St, UL-M, Misstake, New Mexico St, Kentucky, Ole Miss, and Alabama.

This brings to question "How in the hell is the LSU Athletic Department a non-profit?" It's about time to address the charade that college athletic departments like those in the BCS conferences are "non-profits"

The vast majority never make a profit, FWIW.

The same is said in Hollywood by the accountants that none of the films made a profit yet millionaires walk the red carpet here while millionaires walk the sidelines in college sports.

A price increase, with that schedule, and with more seats to choose from now, is so incredibly stupid. Plus, with an attendance issue being pointed out in prime time on CBS, the timing couldn't be worse.

I have season tickets, and have for around 12 years. I don't know that I will make it to 13, though. I can't justify shelling out that kind of cash for half a dozen cupcakes, plus Alabama.

Wow. Could they have possibly come up with a weaker non-conference home schedule than that? Conference home schedule isn't much better. Only one "must-see" home game.

Bingo!

Seriously, I've had season tickets 18 years, TAF member for 8-9, made all 3 BCSNCG, but I have been questioning all of it given the ever increasing $ involved.

Doesn't help that the home schedule next year is pitiful
