This finding isn't just limited to this year, either. Until they start playing a bit more outside of their backyard, I'm not going to give them a whole lot of credit.

I agree the scheduling is strange this year, but UF goes back to a home/home vs Miami in 2008 to go with of course FSU.
Tell me that's not playing outside your backyard. FSU OOC every year is tough enough as it is.

Last I checked, Tallahassee and Miami are in Florida's backyard.

You're arguing semantics now. Come on. Everyone & I meant away games.

Travel takes it's toll. Playing at Miami is not the same as playing at USC or Oregon or Ohio State or Michigan.

LSU playing the Arizona teams, Oregon St, and Fresno St does not impress me

I'd be impressed if they went to Oregon St or Fresno St and played. Fresno St plays suprisingly tough at home.

Or Washington. (just ask Miami) [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I agree.

Though I can give some credit for playing away at Miami and Florida St. But you're right, it's not really the same.

remember these games are typically set up 4-5 years in advance. A team that is very competitive this year could really suck 5 years down the road, and vise versa.

But the environments at FSU or Miami would dominate most others unless we get in to like OSU, texas, michigan, etc.
