Looks like it’s Ann Arbor for game day this week.

The paradox of Tigerdroppings: hate on ESPN unabashedly, but yearn for their flagship college football show, Gameday, to come to their campus. It’s weird.

Yep. I'm not sure how that's a bigger game, despite our loss to Florida.

Gameday is the only good part of ESPN (except Desmond Howard)

I wonder if O saying "frick them" had anything to do with it.

No.

So this week Desmond is the one that sucks? I like how it’s a carousel of hatred that changes weekly.

I'm guessing different people say different things. For example, I don't hate on ESPN but I would like Gameday to come to LSU.

If you're an adult you shouldn't care about Game Day coming.

It was fairly predictable.

LSU wins and you've got a huge top 5 matchup. Baton Rouge is the obvious choice.


LSU loses and it's a somewhat less notable game and they'll opt to promote a game on their own networks.

Yes you should. Much bigger buzz around campus and you're featured on TV. Gameday choosing Ann Arbor over BR cost BR and LSU millions in revenue and exposure. It goes way beyond just not getting to see Corso act goofy with a mascot head.

A chance to showcase your campus and fan base on game day has value and is worth caring about. It’s weird you don’t get that.

Yeah I don't get it either. He's right. Whoever is downvoting him is just a complete retard.

I'd argue it's also relevant to recruiting in some degree. It surely can't hurt for recruits to see LSU prominently on gameday playing one of the biggest games in football on a given weekend.

I think part of the decision ... they decided that they’ll be here for LSU Bama regardless of outcome of UGA-LSU

Has to be that, because LSU-UGAis clearly the best game this Saturday.

Your personal self worth is not based on the Gameday location.

Gameday will likely be in Austin on Nov 3...that’ll be a top 10 matchup of UT vs WVU.
