Playing at 2:30 is part of the price you pay when you have one of the top programs in the conference. I guess we could go back to the 90's, enjoy subpar seasons, and play at 11:30 on Raycom or at night without television. You can go back to the 90's, I'll stick with the present.

I understand your frsutration. I, too, cherish LSU's tradition of night games.

However, you need to understand that the SEC has a binding contract with CBS. Per the terms of that contract, CBS gets to choose which game it will broadcast in the 2:30 PM slot. Other than informal, back channel negotiations (which take place frequently), LSU has no recourse to contest the decision of CBS.

I wanted to play Bama at night as well, but the fans will simply have to make TS a hell during the day.

Can I have your tickets? Also, moron, CBS determines game times, not the LSU AD. No wonder people think our fans are so retarded. Excuse me, mentally challenged.

Remember the old Saturday Night Live routine with Gilda Radner, when Gilda, as Emily Littella, would rave on and on about something (like Saving Soviet Jewelry, Endangered Feces, or Presidential Erections) only to discover that she had her basic facts confused, so she would end with a meek "Never mind."?

Hey, Steven. LSU and the AD have nothing to do with the gametime. It's all determined under the contract between the TV network and the SEC. The school has no choice.

The AD can't stop CBS from picking up the game at 2:30 you dumbass, buy the way im on the waiting list for tickets so feel free to call the ticket office and have them transfer your tickets to me. I will watch the tigers play at noon every week if i can have season tickets.

Anyone who can't grasp the fact that LSU DOES NOT control CBS don't deserve to have season tickets. Plenty of intelligent fans (ok, maybe not plenty) to take your tickets.

See ya.

$3000.00 worth of 4 season tickets


that's funny, my 2 east uppers are about 760 plus a 100$ taf donation... I'd be mad too if I payed LSU about 1500 more than I needed for 4 tickets in the east upper.

and don't call yourself a tiger fan anymore please.

I don't know where you sit. But I sit in the chair back section and I sure as hell don't pay 100.00 a ticket. My TAF donation per seat costs more than the face value of my tickets. If you are gonna act like a big fricker get your facts straight and go back to your bench seats.

He could be in Tiger Terrace or in the lower level seatbacks in the center of the EUD.

Seven, please chill on the needless profanity...I understand you are upset...frankly, that was my first 2:30 game, and the sun beat me down. I had to wear a tshirt over my head like a turban to protect my skin from being sunburned.

My guess is that if we had won, you wouldn't have made your post...
