Foley thought the game could be played in gville on time yesterday afternoon.

LSU and the rest of the universe thought he was stupid.

Today he knows he was stupid.

LSU was prepared to play in gville despite ridiculousness of it all.

LSU was also prepared to help Florida w lodging and transportation as has been precedent.

Foley canceled game that may have been played in front of 30k.

==============================

I rarely post here, but your comments have bugged me enough. First of all, my relatives were from all over Louisiana - New Iberia, Thibodeaux, New Orleans, and so on and I was weaned on Tabasco sauce. So from one coon ass to another, get a grip on reality.

-Every weather forecast up until yesterday had Matthew further east and it looked like it would be out of the area for the game by Saturday afternoon. Yet the entire LSU nation knew in advance it would change path overnight. Brilliant! How about giving us heads up on stock tips and other items since ya'll are clairvoyant

-LSU thinks it's fine for Florida to give up its best home game of the year with the finest opponent to come give up all that revenue but they are not willing to miss an encounter with South Alabama when insurance will cover the payouts because they will lose money

-LSU does not want 3 road games in a row but it's fine for UF

-Florida has all these injuries. Last time I checked LSU is without Fournette, an OL starter and one other so neither team is healthy. But this may be your only point with some merit because clearly Florida has a lot more players beat up now. Nice try - trying both to steal home field advantage and take advantage when they are beat up. Really first class sportsmanship there.

-You also think Florida is doing this so when they run the table they will be 6-1 and East champions. Have you been asleep the last few weeks? What are you on if you think we are going to sweep the rest of our SEC games?

After the tigers get their heads handed to them in the west and will be free the day of the SEC championship and we lose again and are available, hopefully the SEC schedules the game early on that Saturday because after all these crazy comments the swamp will be rocking

One last thing, cannot believe all the LSU fans on multiple sites complaining Florida is scared to play LSU while it is LSU that prefers a game with South Alabama. Guess they figured instead of getting a beat up squad there would actually be some competition.
