I for one have no desire to play them (home or away) as it gains us almost nothing. The 2009 game was fun (part of it) - being up at the half and fingertips away from a potential game winning interception...but the Home Team Homecoming "holding" calls started mounting up in Q4 to where one drive we were going backwards so fast you would swear we had been intercepted. No way we were going to win that game with SEC refs (or else we may have lost our payout)...and being cussed at in mixed company by mixed (heavily inebriated) company for 6+ hours including pre-game and post-game is not what I call much fun.

Rather play teams that have fans are at least honorable in victory if we are going to stack ourselves against multiple top 10 teams each year. Prefer having only 1 of those a year, until we can hold our own with the lower tier top 25 (by being in that group regularly) - LSU are one of the most hated fan-bases nationally. Being in the same State shouldn't exclude us from feeling the same way.
