re: How is Towson picked up by ESPNU, and Idaho Game wasn't?

This is what people don't realize when they ee FCS teams on the schedule. Many of them are better than 30% of the FBS schools out there.

The other thing that they don't realize is that at this point in the history of college football, no one at all gives a shite that top-tier SEC teams schedule like this. LSU got a lot of praise for their schedule last year, but with the resume the SEC has built in the past 10 years (after a long period where the SEC was ridiculed for piling up creampuffs for OOC games), their schedule last season was unnecessarily difficult.

Barring current in-season results, any outsider would objectively agree that a schedule that includes games at Auburn, at Florida, vs SCarolina, at Texas A&M, vs Bama, vs Moo State and vs. Arky is worthy of praise, even if LSU had no real hand in selecting it.

We had a date to fill, so we filled it with Towson. Who cares?

I think the REAL issue here is that we are ready for some REAL football games, and it is unfortunate that outside of Ole Miss, our schedule in Oct and Nov is downright brutal. I think people would rather us have this game in the middle of the crazy lineup starting Oct 6: @ UF, vs SC, @ A&M.

Who gives a shite as long as it isn't Tigervision...I wish I had money...I would want to look at buying Tigervision...if last weekend is the best they can do than there is opportunity or they should just quit.
