If AD, I would advise as follows:
"Dear ESPN and SEC Administrators:
On behalf of LSU and its supporters, we thank you for the opportunity to participate in a televised game at 11:00 am in Tiger Stadium. LSU plays its home games at night and always has regarded this as an important part of its rich, unrivaled Death Valley football tradition.
LSU elects to allow someone less fortunate to participate in a televised game at 11:00 am and wishes you both the best of luck in your early morning endeavors


So u are advocating a breach of contract already agreed to by LSU?

The problem is if LSU is winning there will always be 95+

Now I realize expectations were low going into it, but no one will convince me there were more then 70k in that stadium for the Auburn game.

Tiger,
If you do not think I understand contract law, you would be mistaken. But who are the parties to the ESPN contract? And what did our current AD do to protect our Tiger traditions under it? And, btw has anyone checked our record at night vs. afternoon? Or 11;00 AM!
Does that matter to Joe Alleva?

Probably not but if we had beat Troy and then beat a bad Florida team worse I'd bet there would have been 95+.

People perceived LSU at that point as a horrible losing football team....and they were right until that game was over.

Joe Alleva is willing to sell all of LSU's traditions for immediate revenue. And those traditions are dying every week, without so much as a whimper from our AD. That pisses me off, to be honest.

So what are we going to do about it? The only thing to do is sit home and watch LSU win on TV. The problem is that will probably cause LSU to lose before it budges Alleva an inch. Mark it down Alleva won't do jack different until the wins stop coming.

Joe Alleva may be one of the worst employees ever hired by LSU.

Yes, you have proven to be an idiot.

And to clarify, I am a bandwagon fan because I think 11am kickoffs for LSU are a travesty? Great.

Still waiting for you to link one of my posts griping because I can't drink enough before the game.

Did I say anything about your knowledge? No.

I simply asked if you were advocating breaching a contract? There are contracts and from everything we habe been told and anything that can be found the networks choose our time.

I'm not going to argue that day games suck ads especially 11 am in South Louisiana. There's no argument to be made.

Quit being a hard-arse. 11 a.m. kickoff blows and you know it. LSU was a history of night games, and this leaves little time for anyone who's coming from out of town to get in.
