LSBoosie is a Verge apologist. This game should be in Baton Rouge

Please explain how games against teams like Clemson “always” end of getting cancelled. I’ll wait.

I think most of us season ticket holders are just sick of having to constantly pay for games against teams like southeastern. Seems Verge is always putting the good OOC games in neutral sites, making season ticket holders having to pay more. It would have been nice to have the Clemson game here first because our home games this year are not exciting, but Verge caves and let’s Clemson get the home game first.

Simply not true. Honestly, I prefer playing the second game to punctuate the first win or revenge opportunity for losing the first game.

Florida, South Carolina, Texas A&M, Arkansas isn’t nearly as bad of a home schedule as you’re making it out to be

I didn’t say that. I said Verge is a terrible negotiator as this game should have been in BR this year

Well the post I responded to said exactly that. So what were you replying to me about? In that thread a couple of weeks ago I responded to bunch of the statements and never got a response back.

I would imagine that it will happen in 2026...could not happen in 2024 and 2025 because of the way they reversed the schedule for those years...


I think the point is that we played a non-conference game a Texas without a non-conference return trip. The value as a season ticket holder of Texas being part of a 4 game home conference slate is a lot lower than it being a non-conference home game on top of the home conference slate. based on current schedules, season ticket holders are getting a home game against Southeastern instead of Texas.

Texas doesn’t count because it was the conference realignment that killed that, not a school not honoring an agreement. It was scheduled and up the following year but was one of multiple games cancelled.


There's nothing preventing conference teams playing each other in a game that doesn't count in the conference standings

Would you rather that we play Clemson in Tiger Stadium instead of the Superdome or in Atlanta?

You don’t get Clemson in Death Valley unless you play them in their Temu Death Valley too

I’d rather not play them at all. I thought all this OOC stupidity would stop when we expanded with adding the top 2 BiG12 programs.
