*** Except for LSU

Looks pretty advantageous to me.

Night games at Tiger stadium since 1958:  284-72-4  (.794)


Day games at Tiger stadium since 1958:  50-28-3  (.636)



Lies, damn lies, statistics.

Almost every scrub team that has no shot of beating LSU is at night.  Check the win% again between teams that have a realistic shot of beating LSU in a neutral setting and compare and contrast between day and night games.  That "advantage" dissipates like the magical bullshit that it is.

If y'all want to get worked up over it feel free I guess.  We'll likely play @LSU at night in a couple months.  Perhaps I'll feel differently after they wax us.

Why are almost all of your scrub games at night?

Scrubs for everyone else in many cases (we actually play Kennesaw at night this week), play in the noon or 3:30 slot.

And I don't really expect you to be non-partisan op the topic.  LOL

There is no y'all.  LSU guys are no fan of the convo, however.  :57:

If you kept track through the years like I used to of the various ways the SEC brushed LSU's concerns off while I find no such apathy towards other schools, and then you hear frickin' Aggies who got here 5 minutes ago and don't know what they're talking about and Tennessee fans of all people complain about special treatment, you might get a little worked up too.  Just need rtf4 to show up and complain how Alabama is screwed over in favor of LSU to complete the BS Trifecta.

I wasn't talking about you MDT, was referring to jgvol who is clearly worked up over it, and Gigem who took the time to post about it and raise it as an issue in the first place.

If those guys feel like getting worked up, have at it I guess.  It's not a topic of conversation that I feel like I should care about even a little bit.

These days I actually kinda like the 11 AM games.  If I'm going, I can get there early and pregame a little bit, then get the game over with and be home and not lose my entire day.  If I'm staying at home then the 11 AM game gives me all the rest of the day to do whatever.

I've changed my mind.  This single piece of data sure says it all.

Sorry.

Life is not that great atm and maybe I need to just not.  One of those times when I probably can't tell what genuinely frustrates me and what seems that way because I'm running on empty and with an extremely short fuse.

No worries man, hope things look up soon.  Hey at least LSU football is looking good and you no longer have a coach with a fake Southern accent!

That's true.  Now we have a coach who's potentially a philanderer, a chronic leave'em-in-the-middle-of-the-night guy, who--combined with the powers of Ed Orgeron--are likely to get us on probation or booted from the conference :57:

Speaking of Kiffin, I just thought about this last night...

Lane Kiffin was the OC at USC under Pete Carroll.  He leaves for Oakland, Sark gets that job.  

Kiffin was the head coach at USC.  He gets ousted, Sark gets that job.  

Kiffin was the OC for Alabama under Saban.  He leaves for FAU, Sark gets that job.

For better or for worse, however LSU and Texas fans feel about it, when Kiffin inevitably leaves us suddenly for the Alabama job (or wherever), Texas is gonna have to look for a HC after Sark goes to Baton Rouge.

Nah, Sark's gonna get fired before that happens.  Losses this season @Tennessee, @LSU, @ Texas A&M, and to OU in Dallas, are gonna put him on the hotseat by the end of November.
