I know LSU has played McNeese at least once. There was also a game that never was played due to constant lightning detection and it may have been McNeese.

We need to stop putting Ole Miss on the same tier as us and other programs. They are Ole Miss.

I don't care that Kiffin came from there. They can go argue with Mississippi State and Arkansas and Kentucky. That is who they are as a football program.

We've played McNeese twice. 2021 and 2010.

I remember them flashing a graphic that said it was the first time a game had been cancelled since WWII.

Right but it’s gonna be Lane and LSUs responsibility to start beating them like a they are a part of that group or else the confidence and the delusion will just intensify for Ole Miss.

LSU is going to beat that arse so bad that the NCAA will have to implement a run rule for football.

Idk call me ole fashioned but hard to put a game above Week 1 in the pre-season. With not knowing what each team will be next season. So my list would be:

1. Clemson - week 1 important to start off the season and Lane era with a W in Tiger Stadium.
2. Ole Miss - for obvious reasons.

3-6 TBD based upon how season goes but candidates are Bama, A&M, Auburn, and Texas.

7-9 TBD based upon season. Candidates are Tenn, Arky, Miss state.

10. Kentucky
11. LA Tech
12. McNeese
