How disingenuous is it that ESPN will still have Gameday at LSU tomorrow

These people do not care about the players. They do not care about who is eligible and who is not eligible. They care about one thing. MONEY.

ESPN wants MONEY

SEC wants MONEY

NCAA wants MONEY


If these people were so distraught over the decisions being made they would just not have gameday.


But tomorrow at some point "look at this crowd, this is what college football is all about"

No one cares about CGD or their opinions, just go out and skull drag Clemson and shut everybody the frick up. That’s our focus!

I mean, the players also care about money if we're being honest.

Yea but only after the third story is run on the LSU/SEC controversy, McAfee’s tirade about what college football has become, and Herbstriet crying over the good ole days and how he doesn’t recognize the sport.

Then you’ll get the “isn’t this amazing” sentiment.

They should let the game day crew get all the way down there and then refuse to let them setup on campus. Make em either setup in the hood or get the hell out of Baton Rouge.


Edit: Saban is definitely welcome though always. Just let him do the show by himself on campus

All it does is expose how corrupt SEC, ESPN, NCAA, the whole system is.



I hope LSU fans show them up hard in good faith of course (no actual violent harassment). Show them you can't mess with our pride.

It's not unusual to see ridiculous stuff posted on this board. However, in the past few weeks some of the stuff posted here is almost stupid beyond all belief.

LSU wants Money ( Renting Quads)

City of Baton Rouge wants Money (Hotel&Restaurant industry)

ESPN is a commercial business. They want the same thing that all other businesses want.
You say they want money? I'm shocked.

I don’t know what crack OP is smoking. LSU is the only place that Game Day should be! We are the center of the universe today.

The only way we are going to shut everyone up is the product on the field. Win and it all doesn’t matter.

Have any of the college game day main Talking Heads really come out against LSU? Seemed like last night Rece Davis was pretty sober and fair in his assessment.

I get the vitriol for a Finebaum but is he a big part of CGD? What I expect most of them to say is that this is an unfortunate situation that is mainly the blame of the NCAA and the inability to have understandable rules. They will then needle Lane Kiffin a bit, but I don’t expect them to mimic the SEC rant.

I will be curious how they handle the question of what will the next steps be and what will the fallout be. Fair or not we have pissed off a lot of people.
