Bull shite!! You DO hope you are right. You have this burning need to be right about something just once in your life.

Where do you suggest we play this game?

Some place that was agreed upon as a contingency last Thursday or Friday.

Prior Planning Prevents (Piss) Poor Performance. Logistics are everything.

That what WWL was suggesting last night on 4th down on 4. The heaviest rainfall for New Orleans should be tonight, we will know in the morning.

I mean i think from a football perspective the only thing that would be BAD per se for LSU would be Provo, Denver, or some other elevated place.

Even Phoenix wouldn't be that big a deal IMO. Sure it would suck for the fans but it's not like 70k BYU fans would pack that stadium out either.

Good thing you are stupid. You don't even realize you should be embarrassed due to ignorance.

Thought of that all by yourself, did ya?

I've seen us in these and it get fricked up far, far too often.

When exactly have you see this fricked up? How many times? Please list them. Because other than Florida last year, I can't think of a single time a where a game couldn't be moved successfully. And the only reason that Florida became such a clusterfrick was because Florida, despite the urging of LSU and SEC officials, dug in their heels and refused to move the game. Florida decided they would take their chances and either play in Gainsville or not at all.

There were no problems moving South Carolina to LSU a few years ago.

Nor were there problems moving our Arizona State home game to Tempe in 2005.

Nor were there problems moving our UT home game to a Monday night in 2005.

It's Monday - afternoon - and they haven't made a decision. You tell me how easy it is to move a NCAA game on 5 days notice?

The Superdome says that they need to know something by Tuesday to make it happen. I assume other venues that are in contention need similar notice. And don't you think ESPN, who it would seem is solely in control of this decision now that NRG is definitely not happening, knows exactly how long they need to mobilize their equipment and crews?

Some problems are just too large to solve . We haven't landed on the sun yet for instance. So how can you expect Joe Aleeva, who is the best in the business by the way, to be able to maneuver his way through a 12 game schedule without losing a game. I think you underestimate the complexity of scheduling a college football game. It required phone calls and meetings and contracts - it's just Herculean in scope.

Lost a game in 2015.
Lost a game in 2016.
2017? Three years in a row?
First team in SEC history to play 5 SEC road games.
Thankfully we have the best AD in the business.

Gd that are fricking stupid. Wow
