LSU has announced that Saturday's home game against Arizona St. is now a road game.

Sad season for all Louisiana folks. I find myself sympathetic to all the LA schools this season. Each one of them has been touched by the tragedy; I think all of them have players with a friend, immediate family member, or extended family member who died.

Hopefully Tulane and LSU can channel their pain onto the field as a form of therapy this year. Trite? Maybe. But these kids need something positive right now. And their surviving friends and families need a little distraction and something to help them feel, in some small way, better.
