Do you view the LSU game location as a disadvantage or an advantage?

I like to keep telling myself that by the game being played in Baton Rouge our team will be more driven and focused to win. Kind of an us versus the world type mentality. Maybe playing on the road will work out for us like 2010 Florida did. Then again....its Death Valley....at night....

It's an advantage as far as our season goes.. Playing them there means we get a home game against a team we can beat.

What are you smoking..

We haven't won at LSU since 1991...

How in the hell can it be an advantage to play there?

Well we have only won once at home since 1991. It's not like playing here or there really matters.

Would you rather be the top scientist in your field? Or have Mad Cow Disease?

Huge disadvantage.

Now if we had the morning game it would be a lot better, but if we had the morning game it would also mean we sucked.

Good point. I believe personally that playing the game in Baton Rouge will make our team practice and play harder for this game. If the game were in Starkville, I think the team goes into the week of practice with the mindset that the game is theirs because of home field advantage. I'd rather them practice/play with a bigger chip on their shoulder the whole week because they know they will be heading into the lion's den come Saturday night.

If our team goes into this game against LSU truly believing it is theirs to lose (no matter the location), then Dan Mullins has been passing out the synthetic LSD that OP4 just heard about.

We haven't beaten LSU this century. Playing at their place has absolutely zero advantage for our team.

Man, we have fans that must be scared of the dark or something. Or are scared that Cajuns will come out of the stands and beat us up. I've never seen a more frightened pathetic fan base in my life. For goodness sakes, have some balls.

I don't believe it's an advantage or disadvantage to play at Tiger on Saturday night for us. The game will be decided on a 100 yard piece of turf in which you can see just as well at night as during the day.

Sure, LSU may play with more confidence at night than during the day, but we have a veteran team that should be playing with confidence as well. I'm glad we played at USA last weekend in order get used to playing on the road.

This will be a great game that could go down to the wire.
