Thread: Tulane Game Week (pregame)

    Still gonna be at the game. Never quite understood why some people insist on having to say a shiz sandwich tastes good though. Anyone with common sense knows any “national exposure” from this game being on ESPNU is nothing compared to what we will lose in attendance and tailgating. It’s okay to admit something sucks.

    I love it when people bring up all the P5 schools that regularly play morning games like all those Big10 schools. I believe there may be a slight culture difference between your typical, dry county Indiana football booster and Cajun fans. To ignore that is to bury your head in the sand.

    Boise State revisited but without the West side at all.

    Yeah, all those "other schools" playing at 11AM, most in cooler climates and getting paid Millions and millions by ESPN. Sheesh!

    I guess I have no common sense, because there is national exposure, and it counts for something. To say it is nothing compared to what we will lose in attendance and tailgating is hyperbole, and I disagree.

    Im not saying its great, but its what we have, and we cannot change it. Most on here were loving the ESPN deal back when it was signed. They loved the increased linear games.

    The question as to whether it sucks is a matter of perspective. Its not the end of the world. Its a thing, and we have to adapt to the thing. You can sit around and complain all you want, but it doesnt change the thing.

At some point UL has got to start doing what is best for UL and not ESPN (especially an 11a kick off).standing up for itself to do what's right will build fans loyalty and build the priority of going to a UL game faster than anything else.
    You're completely missing the point of my listing of the games at 11am. Its to show that the window isnt saturated with a huge game like UCLA/LSU, USC/Michigan, Oklahoma/Tenn. None of the 11am games are must-watch.

    Also, how does one stand up for themselves when the conference signed away the rights?

    My mom is from Nebraska and growing up all the Cornhusker games were at noon.

    Noon made sense; the temperature got down to single digits at night and the tradition started long before many of those schools had stadium lighting.

    Louisiana had all day games before 1930's also, but as SOON as they put in lights in 1931 (may have been 33) they did the smart thing.

    Have Disney (aka ESPN) and the DirecTV put their differences aside?
