Ok, people first of all, the ticket at LSU already told me that tickets would be refunded, and nobody knows that whether this game will be moved to Louisiana or not. Don't be so absolute

You better be glad we're playing you're independent arse to make your schedule look decent.

So don't lump us in with the UF's and TAMU's (OOC: Rice, Sam Houston State, etc).


Florida opens at a neutral site with Michigan and A&M opens at UCLA.

I don't think you or BYU is in any position to make demands.

You can always refuse to agree to play the game in New Orleans or elsewhere but your program simply is in no position to dictate a home and home because of a weather event.

You do know Florida is playing Michigan at Jerry World to start their season, right?


You do know what a total aberration it is for Florida to play a road game against a non-conference team not named Florida State, don't you?

The Superdome is probably the only chance BYU has to not lose the expected revenue from this game.

You should be grateful if a neutral site steps up and hosts this game...no matter where it is. LSU was always going to have a huge advantage from a fan standpoint. You realize that, right?

Houston is only about an hour longer drive than NOLA. What difference is it going to make?

Going to Provo would not hurt anyone except the fans. I am sure that the BYU fans can get a refund on their plane tickets but I don't know that LSU fans can get tickets out of here with that short of notice.

Do you really think that after the devastating floods Baton Rouge has just gone through we aren't sensitive to Houston's plight? GEEZ...

Some people.. Who cares where we play the game... I just wanna see my boys play...

Get over yourself. I would rather have played it further away from BR. That way you can't blame the loss of the venue.

Houston is LSU territory anyway. Big alumni base and a lot of Louisiana transplants there, plus its only a 4 hour drive from BR.

The game being moved to LA on short notice due to natural disaster isnt going to give LSU the home field advantage you think it will. I was at the LSU-South Carolina game that was moved to BR at the last minute because of major flooding in Columbia. Tiger Stadium was only about 1/3 full. Most season ticket holders planned other events expecting a road game and couldnt make it when it was switched to a home game. I would expect similar situation if BYU game gets moved to NO or BR, especially considering its Labor Day weekend so a lot of people have vacations planned

ESPN controls this and nit LSU. There will be no return game in Provo and if played in Provo, there would be no return game in Baton Rouge
