    In a couple weeks, Tennessee will try to pull the same sh*t. If the triage is still in the pmac, and it likely will be, and the hotel rooms are still booked up, and they will be, then Tennessee will go to the SEC to get the game moved.

    You are dead on. The excuse that every team-Fl, Auburn, Tenn, and Ark will use is lack of rooms. Let's face Baton Rouge hotels will be booked for at least a year. I think if we don't have the Tenn game in TS, we might have a riot in Baton Rouge.

    Yeah, you just know those damn AZ officials came down knowing that whether good or bad that they were going to feel "uncomfortable" playing the game in BR so that they could play at Tempe....cause who knows what kind of a team we'll have in '08...

    according to channel 2, the main reason is the emergency personell on campus, like the triage area in the pmac and the field house.. they think that football fans would get in the way.. this setup will still be there in 2 1/2 weeks...

    I bet it isn't. It's a temporary situation.

    No way will they allow any more home games to be affected. If visiting fans don't have hotels, then tough chit! A lot more LSU fans won't have hotel rooms either. The teams don't need a sellout crowd to play football.

    No way will Skip move any more home games. He should refund visitors any tickets they wish to return.
