If we played them in TS next year we would have played at TCU the following in 2014. So you were losing a home game anyway. Why can't people understand this. This was a home and home series.


Well, first of all, I don't see a return trip scheduled for 2014 on the official LSU 2014 schedule:

But even assuming there was a home and home, my complaint wasn't about the sheer NUMBER of home OOC games, it was about the quality of home OOC games next season. Sure, if there was a home and home, we can trade a Cowboys classic for an additional home game the next season (2014), but that doesn't cure the fact that there won't be any meaningful home OOC games next year (2013).

(Also, your position assumes that we won't replace the 2014 TCU game (assuming there is one scheduled) with another nuetral site or away game.)

Dude, read the article:

A report from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram website Friday afternoon says LSU and TCU will scrap their scheduled home-and-home series for a single game in Cowboys Stadium to open the 2013 season.

I'd suggest getting used to this.....the need to play tough OOC opponents in the SEC is basically over now especially in the expanded era.

It was be insanity to replace it with an away game.....depending on the financials a classic may not be a terrible idea to simply get a good OOC game like you said above.
