Discuss it here.

Hopefully we can open our new baseball stadium with a game vs. LSU. I doubt they'd give us a series, but a Tues/Wed game would be a nice way to open the new digs.

Great. The cheater gets points for coming north for an exhibition game and Konk can claim lsu came in before 8 swac teams

We HAVE to take advantage of this. I hate all the props in the article (which is confusing stating that both "football teams" have a bye in November") for lsu, but glad we finally get them at home. I hope we absolutely kill them and they go on a crying fit and not play us for another 10 years. I figure they must have a good team with some hot recruits to even consider this. They act like this is for charity.

Bought two tickets. See you there!

Agree. I appreciate the gesture, I guess. I just have a check about the message it sends to the people of Louisiana, and potentially reinforces a stereotype of "knowing our place"

Agree...... If we beat up on them, by some chance, we can change the narrative very easily though. If they beat us, it will reinforce the status quo...

Are they playing the girls team too? Title IX issue? :D

It’s an exhibition game / if we win the narrative will because lsu didn’t care

I hate LSU with a passion, but this is a fantastic coup for our Athletic Dept and I have already gotten a dozen tickets with my friends and family. I want my kids to experience a packed TAC. This is an excellent opportunity for us to take advantage of a horrible situation.
