    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Myth has it that LSU plays better at night in Tiger Stadium than they do during the day. The facts show that since 1960, LSU is 201-59-3 (.769) at night under the lights compared to a 19-22-3 (.466) mark in Tiger Stadium during the day. Since 2000, LSU is 43-6 overall at home, which includes a 35-4 (.897) mark at night in Tiger Stadium and an 8-2 (.800) record during the day. Prior to 2000, LSU had only won 11 games at home during the day in 34 tries. From 1960 to 1999, LSU posted an 11-20-3 (.368) record at home during the day.

    without looking up the specific day games, i assume the disparity has nothing to do with loud, drunk coonasses, but the fact that lsu tends to play much better teams for day games.

    Now why do you have to go about saying things like this, professor?

    It's not a myth. Legend has it that LSU plays better at night in Tiger Stadium than they do during the day. :wink:
