The Advocate's Scott Rabalais just said on Sports Today that LSU will not use all 15 available bowl practices.

I thought Hanny was going to blow a gasket, and I think I might too.

At least have the freshman go through practice if you want to rest the upperclassmen.

Don't understand this at all.

EDIT: From an LSU press release, will use 12 practices.

Practices will start on Thursday.

I don't want to think the worst, but someone please put a positive spin on this!

Does any other coach in America forego some of the additional practices? Honest question. Coaches always say those extra practices are the primary benefit of a non-playoff bowl.

Only thing I can think of is trying to give players extra time to visit their families over break

It's no longer just getting comical. It's nearly farcical at this point.

They badly need the reps - and, another thing - the redshirts need to be getting the new plays - I know we don't have an offense, but surely Aranda can use the time with the kids who didn't play this year to get ready for more of what he wants to do next year.

You don't have to go full speed if you don't want to - and I'm for letting kids work on academics if they need it (finals should be over now, though) and visit with families.

This doesn't bode very well. We'll see at the bowl game, I guess.

There are different practice rules for the playoff bowls?
