It will be Arkansas, and it will suck.

It historically was a miserable Friday after Thanksgiving game. I was actually starting to like playing A&M on Saturday.

Arkansas is not one of LSU’s permanent opponents. So. wouldn’t the opponent for the last game change every year?

Black Friday against Arkansas incoming



Those 2000s era games against Arky were such bullshite. Always tough no matter how bad they were.

A lot of people will hate the Black Friday game but I always liked that you could kick back on Rivalry Saturday and spend the entire day soaking up the last week of the regular season.

It won't be every year because we will only play them every other year.

It will either be Arkansas and Oklahoma in alternating years or Oklahoma annually. Arkansas will not be a permanent opponent.

OU would be so much better.


If there is an annual opponent, it will be OU. More likely is alternating between Arkansas and OU.

Next year is just a stop gap. It’s likely LSU is playing Arkansas on 11/30 next year, but that doesn’t preclude it becoming OU annually when they adopt a 3-6 model. I still think it’s more likely they’ll alternate between the two and keep Bama as the third permanent opponent.

LSU football is meant to be played on Saturdays, preferably Saturday nights. I hate the Sunday openers and Black Friday games.

Of course, you would want to remember bad things.

I always hated the Friday game, but when it was gone, I actually missed it.
