I had heard a rumor a couple of moths ago that the Mississippi State game in Starkvegas next year could be moved to a Thursday night. Don't know if there is anything to that.

Think LSU opened with MSU on a thursday about three years ago.

To play big name schools we have to play home and home
(west Virginia) we have to play an extra away game. We are getting a huge check for the Jerry world
Opener.
Next year is a great year to be a Road Tiger.
Dallas, Bama, Knoxville, Morgantown. I'm stoked

Jerry isn't writing LSU a $6 million check to play a regular season game ..

LSU doesn't make a $6 Million profit for home games, not even close.

what are you talking about ? can you do simple math ? $45 a ticket X 92K is $4.185 million by itself .. concessions is another $700K .. programs and souvenirs amount to another $300K .. and not all non conf tix are $45 .. suites and club are even more .. we haven't even talked parking yet .. LSU EASILY grosses $6 Million for a non conference game ..
