thats why I think it gets moved to the open date in November.

thats a big financial hit moving it anywhere off campus.

Exactly. LSU isn't moving this game to Houston. I think it'd be a logistical nightmare with 4 days notice. It'll be postponed and played on the common open date in November if Tiger Stadium can't handle it this weekend.

BOOOO
I'd be pumped to see LSU in Houston w/ all the local recruits and exposure.

Thought the 4 days' notice likely puts an end to it as a possibility.

Are you serious? What about Rice and UH? This is a stupid statement.

Is it because they have more population, therefore more LSU fans? Because then Houston is probably a bigger LSU City than Baton Rouge.

Yes I would mind because I wouln't be able to make it to the game. I've always wondered how they would work the seating arrangements. How many people already have tickets? How many seats does Reliant, or other venues hold? Would you tell some people that already have tickets that they are just out of luck?





I'm with you. I couldn't amke it.

This seems like the most logical move if the game must be played this weekend, but Tiger Stadium is not available.

well shreveport is getting rained on a good bit and it should be flooded later this week

houston looks to be open

I'll be pissed if they come to Houston, since this is the one weekend I'll be out of town and will miss the chance to see them live.

In one sense you are correct. If by "this" you mean your own previous statement.

I am a loyal LSU fan in the Houston area & would love to see the Troy game in the Reliant Stadium. However, there is such a thing as Louisiana pride & if at all possible the game should be played in Louisiana. If not possible, there are lots of LSU fans to fill Reliant Stadium.

Hey BT you must be the biggest internet badass here. Way to resort to name calling on the computer "Pal". I simply stated my opinion on how I didn't want the game to be moved to Houston. Thanks for the one of a kind insight.

I'm suppose to be out of town too, but that would change in a hurry.
