Jacques Doucet did a sitdown with Verge and asked him what his thoughts were regarding week Zero games…
I don’t love them either but if our opponents for two damn straight years has one then we definitely should as well.

From the tweet:

Week Zero games?

@LSUfootball and Executive Deputy AD Verge Ausberry doesn't seem interested at the moment.

"I don't think it means a difference in a win or loss of a game. We're LSU."

"We don't need to do that to get prepared for an opponent."

This is just inviting future opening OOC opponents to have a tune-up game

Verge can’t even convince his kids to play for LSU. He sucks.

UCLA may have kicked that teams butt anyway but I’d argue the last two years.

This is how we ended up with Ed O as coach.

Verge shouldn’t have a job at LSU. Guy is expired and has been for sometime now!

It would have less impact this year but he's wrong. Breaking in a new staff, most of the roster new starters, etc. Only side it's going to really impact next year is defense who will be breaking in a new secondary. As of now FSU doesn't have a game zero either.

You would think Kelly could get us to a place where a program like LSU doesn’t need to boat race a team in week zero go be ready.

This type of arrogance seems silly to me.

Exactly. So why is he so arrogant?

I very much believe it made a difference in the outcome.

It's nice to have a tune up game to work out some kinks. It's one thing if we were facing a lesser team week 1, but I mean we are facing a very talented FSU team.
